Well, you know that I am trying to accessorize my master bedroom on the cheap, so today I stopped by the Habitat store and picked up a couple of frames.
They were only two dollars each, so I spent a whopping $4.00!
They are matted for a 8 x 10 picture which is exactly what I needed.
I spray painted them both black and sanded the edges just a bit.
I got my artwork for the frames from Vintage Printable online…just printed them off of my computer right at home!
There is a wealth of vintage prints that you can download and print for FREE! Love that!
I turned the mat around in the frame so it would be white instead of cream, and added the bird’s nest prints that I downloaded…
I still do not have the side tables for my room figured out, so right now I just have a table from around the house sitting there.
I am wanting to find a desk for this side of the room..
As you can see, I am trying to add touches of blue to the room. It was needing some color!
Not bad for FREE!
This one is my favorite. I love the little blue eggs…
I am hoping to find some matching lamps for both sides of my bed. Lamps are so expensive, so I am trying to find some at a thrift store.
Another great site to get free prints is The Graphics Fairy.
Here are some I downloaded from her site…
She has a ton of cool pictures, not just birds.
The pictures I made really added a nice touch to the room, and they were totally worth only $4.00!
So if you are needing artwork for your room, be sure to check both of these sites out!

Wow!! Your new artwork looks wonderful! You got me thinking about what I could do in my own bedroom.
ReplyDeleteLove the artwork! I have been meaning to print out images from those sites as well but haven't bought any color ink.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! What a great price!

Not sure if you have a Fred's in your part of the country, but they have the BEST lamps...for $10-20! Old Time Pottery also has good lamps.
ReplyDeleteHi Traci. The artwork turned out beautiful and don't you just love the price! I get really excited over things like that. Seeing what you can do with very little.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day Sweetie. Hugs...Tracy :)
Good for you, Traci! You made that $4 go a long, long way! Thanks for the links to those sites--I need to check them out.
ReplyDeleteHere's a question for you. If you don't find side tables that you like or that you can afford, would it work to make a tablecloth for a skirted table out of burlap (like the one in your guest house), and then make a square topper out of a fabric that has some blue in it? It would be another way to bring in some color. You wouldn't need much of the topper fabric. You could even make a couple of decorative pillows for your bed out of the same fabric, perhaps adding a button covered in burlap to the middle of the pillow. Just a thought. :)
Tracy, the pictures look wonderful. So pretty. Your room is coming together and I just LOVE the chandelier. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteExcellent work! I always love a good frame craft, and one that's super inexpensive :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the sites! I am always looking for artwork I can print at home. I love the image of the bird nest, LUV! You got a great deal on your frames also, mine were $7 ea. @ Big Lots :o(
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures and I am going to check out the website. Thanks so much, Traci!

I am SO into birds right now Traci. They are just so darn sweet and fit into just about any decor. I think they look perfect in your bedroom!

Great artwork, I love the nest with eggs adding the touch of blue for your room. Isn't it fun adding the finishing touches to rooms. Have a great day!

Great idea, Traci! Great frames, too, for $4.00! I love Karen's site, she always has such great images to choose from. I've printed out and framed a number of them for my own home.

It is perfect! And you can't beat $4!
ReplyDeleteI too love the artwork. Food for thought on bedside tables. At www.MyDesignGuide.com, we love those inexpensive (I hate to say cardboard, but that's what it is) tables with a cloth on top. You can get them at Target or Pottery Barn. They are great because they are large - you have a fair amount of space at least on one side of your bed - and they offer a place for storage underneath. We recommend topping it with a white 60" round table cloth and then a topper that you can make yourself or change based on your decor, season etc....
ReplyDeleteI just bought this one - that relates well to your new bird art - it looks a lot better in person than on the website- beautiful blues...http://www.target.com/s/182-4911163-8520859?_encoding=UTF8&search-alias=tgt-index&keywords=bird%20tablecloth&ref=sr_bx%5F1%5F1&searchNodeID=1038576%7C1287991011&searchPage=1
Inexpensive - the right size, storage and updateable....what more could you want.
Those are great frames! You really scored. I love vintage printables as well. Lots of great stuff on there. Your room is really coming along.
