via madebygirl


I'm going out of town for a long weekend in Nashville..
one of my best friends from high school is getting married!!!!
 Tricia was in my wedding and i'm sooo excited to be there for her and celebrate with everyone!
 I love weddings.  
and i love tricia. so it's going to be a great weekend.
how stinking cute are they??
tricia and i after a whip cream "incident" the evidence is still on our faces. classic.
out with the girls before i got married! feels so long ago!
(ps. she's anna from in honor of design's little sister.)
I set up a series of posts full of practical concrete tips for making your space look decorated by a pro...but you can take all the credit. ;) and...you know what you are looking for...and what look you want so you go out bargain shopping and be the favorite person of your husband when you come home with money still left in your account. :)    


Tip #1 FRAMES
Go Big and Bold with Frames.
Make a statement. Love the Gallery look. So many places have great cheap frames that you can spray paint...or take the ugly picture out and make up your own matte for..... i get most of my frames when they are discounted...and then when i have a collection of them i like i put them up together.
 have fun with it!

you don't have to use only big sizes..but mix in large and small.

Create your own Artwork. i love personal touches throughout the home.
This mama used wallpaper she bought at the grocery store!! love it.

my mom did this same idea in her powder room. but with white vintage looking frames.
love this for a dressing room!

Overwhelmed with how to put up your frames??

do you have any rooms in your house where you made a lovely statement with a grouping of frames??
