Now before you decide that I've gone completely insane, please know that one, my mom's kitchen was completely decorated in blue and ducks when I was growing up, so these prints have a nostalgic quality to them, and two, I've been searching for inexpensive oval frames for ages!
I don't know what got it into my head, but I've really been wanting a pair for over a year now, but they are always too small, too big, too expensive, or too gaudy. Finally I found a pair that is juuuust right. A little spray paint and a little of our extra wallpaper, and voila:
Inexpensive art that adds a punch of color and a fresh springy feeling to the H-Haus. So what do you think - do you miss the ducks? (Don't worry they're still in there - I couldn't bring myself to part with them) So long winter!
i have those same pictures! so far, i've painted the frames green and just waiting for the printer to get fixed!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and clever!
ReplyDeleteJudging from Renee's post, those two duck pictures are fairly common? But I swearrrrrrr that my mother had these exact same two framed ducks in my nursery and bedroom til I was about 8! And I believe they were in oval frames, too! They look identical to them, anyway. WEIRD. Hadn't thought of them in ages.
