Artful Framing

There are many easy methods to update your home, and one of them is to reframe your art collection.  I regularly do this as part of the design process.  Clients are in awe after their work returns home.  Updating frames makes art new again.

Many homeowners have collected art for years, have it framed, and that’s the end of the story.  But, the story can change by overhauling your art with fresh, new style.  This is a way to bring new life into your collection, and into your home.

You can also create a salon wall or a gallery wall in your home to present a collection, or a series collection.  This makes a visual impact with some punch.  It’s also a way to fill a long wall beautifully.  You can also remove old, dated frames from canvas pieces, and hang them in tandem.  This method pulls your eye up and creates an illusion of height.

Inexpensive art reproductions or prints can bring a room to life with a beautifully, detailed frame.  Take pride in your pieces and frame them properly to update a room with panache’.
