I found these beautiful Italian made frames at the thrift store, but the trouble was...... they were brass.....well, nothing a coat of spray paint couldn't fix. With a little added embellishment they are the perfect junkstyle
re-creation.
One in white and one in black. I love anything to do with Paris so had to use some french themed images. The perfect frenchie paper was found at a local scrapbooking shop.
A vintage earring and crystal finish off the look.
Happy day.
