Thinking outside of the box is necessary in the world of art! While I LOVE the great name stores like Aaron Brothers and Michaels for frames and framing supplies sometimes you can find just what you’re looking for in unexpected places.
The colors of this photograph I took a while back jumped out. I love the way the green and blue fall into place. I wanted to find a green frame. But everywhere I looked the green seemed to be too much, so I thought I needed to step away from green all together. Unitl I found this frame at a home furniture store! My first thought was, “I love that frame, but I don’t need a corkboard. Nor do I have any place for a green frame in my house. Then I remembered I was looking for something green… and $25, a staple remover, and a torn corkboard later, I had the perfect green frame with just a touch of yellow (which I had never thought of) to pull away from too much green! Voila!
