A Quick and Easy Update...Paint Your Frames!

A while ago, I began my quest to lighten up things around the house.  First I painted the walls and the trim Navajo White...well, most of the walls in the main area...coordinating with a sand color for a little contrast.  Then off to my office to paint the dark brown baseboards, the desk, credenza, mirror AND bulletin board.

The painting continues...this time it was my old gold and brassy frames that needed a quick update.  Everyone has old picture frames but they may not be the right color or look you want anymore.  If they are in good shape, simply adding a couple of coats of paint can liven them up nicely.

Added to my ever changing decor, these frames help achieve the lighter look that I'm striving for.

Now I pretty much just walk around the house with a paint can LOOKING for something to paint.  I love the difference each little change makes!
