Easy and Thrifty Artwork by Megan

I am working on a gray & yellow bedroom for our house. Of course I haven't really thought about that much past the dresser we did a few months back.  I have been pondering some ideas for wall decor or art too. I had a stash of pictures that I used before and wanted to reuse some of the frames.  


I took the frame and removed the artwork. I used some Valspar gray spray paint and covered the frame. Then I used the free printable that I found from Pinterest to place in the frame now.  Here is the link to the free printable: Persnickety Prints.  I am hoping that one day this room will be for another child, so I like the Love You in this printable.


Before & After



 I am going to be leaving the back without backing, so when I place it on the wall the color will show through. I like the look of the saying floating in the frame.  



I already the frame and spray paint, and the printable was free. I am a fan of projects that are fun and are thrifty.  I am excited to add it to the other items I already have in mind for the walls in the room.  Thanks for checking it out.

  11. This is so cute! Question, how do you mount without the back? What do you use to hold the glass in the frame??
