Frame It

Have a bunch of mismatched frames? Give them a makeover so they look ilke they belong in the same tailored collection. We spray painted them a rich black that pops against the pink wall. It's a cool alternative to hanging a mirror or piece of art over a console.
Arranging 101
-Arrange frames on the floor before hanging them.
-Keep the spacing on the wall equal with no more than two inches between each frame.
-Use a measuring tape to make sure the distance is accurate.
-Make cardboard cutouts the same size as your frames and tape cardboard to the wall to see how they look before you commit to the real thing.

    1. I think it is combination of contrast between the vivid pink wall color and the strong black frames makes it so perfect.
