Vintage Art

 

Hi everyone!

Just popping in for a quick post. I thought I’d share some recently acquired vintage wall art that I plan on using in my little home makeover. I haven’t quite decided where to hang them yet since I’m thinking of painting either just my foyer or the foyer/livingroom/hallway.  Don’t want to hang something only to have to take down soon.

My daughter gave me this pretty vintage floral print for Christmas. It had been in my etsy favorites for a while. There’s a stamp on the back that says 69 cents!

I’ll probably paint the frame. The glass is broken on the bottom right (don’t know if you can see it).  So I might just remove the glass altogether.

This one is called “The Farm Yard”

Looks very English cottagey don’t you think?

I think I’m going to do a gallery wall of  all different kinds of things in my foyer – so I think it’s going there. But don’t hold me to it!

Have a great weekend everyone!

    Very pretty, Manuela! Love the floral one with those colors. You could probably replace the glass with a Goodwill frame find. Have a great weekend!

    Lovely little prints. I’m sure wherever you incorporate them into your home, they will be lovely.

    Hello Manuela :)

    Great pictures! You could probably pick up another piece of glass from a same size frame at the thrift store. I have done than a few times. I especially love the farm yard, it is very English cottagey :)

    have a wonderful weekend!

      Yes, I’m going to start looking for one – actually I have a lot of empty frames. I’ll check to see if any fit. Thanks for the idea!
