Photo Wall - Thrift Style

Do not buy photo frames from anywhere other than a thrift store or second hand shop. Why pay $15 for one frame when you could by 10-20 frames for the same cost!? Purchase the tackiest frames you can find (trust me on this) paint them with an interior paint of choice - or whatever you have hidden in the garage and voila! You have a gorgeous photo/art wall for a fraction of the cost.

The hideous frames --- 19 of them for only $8.56. 

 The painting takes only a day to paint and dry, so this is a simple and fun weekend project for those of you who are like me and have absolutely no patience :)

 From tacky to fab!

 The outcome. I can't say "final project" because I intend to keep adding to it... But I love it thus far, from the obvious asymmetry to the empty frames, it's exactly what I wanted.
