BEFORE
Need a change and can’t afford an “ahhh” inspiring Picasso or a Group of Seven? Fear not!
Re-Use what you already have! Some of the most inspiring rooms are decorated with objects and artwork that would otherwise be collecting dust in some forgotten corner.
You loved them once but now they are hiding away in boxes, closets and garages. And all they really need is a little creative Re-Design.
I framed this clip-on-tie, which was worn by both my husband and son as children, several years ago. That was during my “make a simple statement” phase.
Styles, trends and your tastes change over time.
AFTER
Instead of neglecting your tired old framed art, consider re-designing it into something you will Re-Love.
Last week I came across the framed tie in the far back of a closet. I decided to move it into a grouping of pictures but it looked blah and lost. Instead of packing it away, I re-designed it to have more of the contrast and interest I was looking for. I re-used the frame, glass and tie and I am enjoying it all over again. It feels wonderful!
Re-Use, Re-Design and you will Re-Love!
