Pair of pretty shell prints in monochromatic color scheme. Initially I had looked at these ‘just for the frames’; but the frames were not removable. I really liked the pictures, and usually I’m all about monochrome colors. These were just TOO bland for me.
I have always liked this kind of ‘text book’ drawing; so I decided to buy them and see how difficult it would be to repaint the frames with NOT being able to remove them.
The hardest part of this quick make-over was taping the paper over the glass to protect it while I painted the frames.
A couple of quick coats of paint; then some sanding (sand BEFORE you removed the paper covering the glass!). Just a touch of color; the distressing brings out the original frame color to coordinate with the pictures.
Which do you like better? Original color or the aqua?
