I've been FRAMED!
Last year when I did the flooring/painting in the living room I forbid my wife to rehang the pictures. She's got a gf that sells Home Interiors and our place is polluted with mismatched frames and shelves. This is an example of why I refused to put holes in fresh paint ....
The frames not only 'don't match ... but they don't even go together, I was disgusted with them when we had them hanging side by side before the redo and there was no way I was gonna hang them again the way they were.
I came up with an idea to make all matching frames for the room, with hopes of pulling the entire room together into one sort of 'theme', I was a little concerned with this idea as I don't personally know anyone that's tried this in their own house, but hey, I'm adventurous.
Here's the end result, I originally planned on soft maple frames with a red mahogany stain to match an existing shelf we have, but after having absolutely no luck with matching that shelf, I threw in the towel and used MDF with a gloss white lacquer finish. I think this is gonna look a lot better once the white crown moulding is up.
