Aqua Love

One of my favorite colors this year for home decor is aqua.  It goes with so many colors you wouldn't even consider such as red, pink and gold.  I found these frames at a flea market.  They were both painted gold.  The one with the triple panes was missing some of the molding pieces so rather than try to recreate the missing pieces, I removed what was remaining.  It left the frame a little rough and uneven in some places.

 I painted the frames with an aqua paint I already had on hand and since both frames had some rough patches, I took my sander and gave them both a heavy sanding, thus exposing the gold and the wood beneath.

 What was left behind was a perfect primitive appearance.  I love this triple frame.  It can even be used as a door crown to add a little interest to an otherwise plain area.  I left the wire behind the other frame.  I can just picture notes and photographs clothes pinned onto the wire thus creating the perfect message board.

Thanks for stopping by.  I have a lot of projects started but nothing is finished yet.  Hopefully I will make some progress this week and have more to share soon.
