Old Picture Frames Refurbished

 
 

 
My boyfriend bought me a big box of old picture frames at an auction in Caton, N.Y. These three frames were originally painted gold, but were scratched and peeling in spots. I touched them up with a little gold paint and then decorated them...
 
 
 
By gluing Bamboo from an old bead curtain and Recycled Newspaper Squares on the front and then coating them entirely with coats of polyurethane...
 
 
 
What began as old dilapidated picture frames became antique styled frames with an unique oriental look. Perfect for displaying Sumi Paintings or other works with an eastern theme.
