Thrifted Frame Before and After

I purchased this frame at a Thrift Store a few weeks ago......
Definitely not my decorating style or color.
 
 
It was priced at $3.00 and as it was Seniors Day, I got 25% off for a grand total of $2.25. There has to be something good about being a Senior.....
 

I dismantled the frame, painted the mat and frame in a Off-White Paint and then lightly distressed the frame. I added graduation photos of my 3 older granddaughters, Lauren, Lyndsay and Alyssa. Three sisters and all are special in their own way.
 
 
 
I rarely buy anything new and have a house full of Thrifted Finds that some would call junk, but are treasures to me.
