As you may have already noticed, I spend alot of my time painting and transforming found treasures. Alot of time! So today I thought I'd share with you a few of my latest creations, painted my favorite baby blue, and bright aqua!
For me, half the fun of creating is the searching! There is hardly a week that goes by without me hunting for goodies that I can makeover. My latest obsession passion is picture frames! I've been putting together quite a few sets for my Etsy shop, and think it's so much fun to unite them all with the same color.
This is one of my current favorite sets. I added vintage sheet music to one of the frames. Love the sepia tone against the baby blue. I was thrilled to find these vintage metal frames. Once a "gaudy gold", I think they are so much prettier now!
Ok, one of these days I really do need to remember to take a before shot of these vintage desk organizers! I've been lucky enough to find 5 or 6 of them, that I have given an entirely different look to. Once a dark brown, I think it easily would've been passed up.
But no more!
I've added all of these lovelies to my Etsy shop, if you'd like to check them out!
For those of you in states hit by the recent tornadoes, my thoughts and prayers go out to you. Stay safe!

Beautiful, Donna! I have a couple of those lacy metal frames that are still gaudy gold...I think I need to paint them aqua after seeing yours!!! Great job!
