When it comes to decorating within a limited budget, painted picture frames are one of my favorite design options. Not only can you buy frames at thrift store and flea markets on the cheap, but painting them yourself is a simple and easy DIY project.
Here’s some visual inspiration plus a few great sources for painted frames, should you decide to not go the DIY route.
