The black frame fits that print so much better! Love all your thrift store flips!

That’s a beautiful story Bernadette! Thank you for sharing that with us.
Have you taken a picture to do a “google” image search to see if there is something similar out there somewhere?

I bought an original oil painting from the Salvation Army some years ago and gave the cheap frame the Rub-n-Buff treatment in gold. What a difference. The painting is of a pot of poppies and done in impasto. The artist’s name is in the corner but I haven’t been able to trace her. She might have done the painting for a high school or college class. I wish I could tell her how beautiful it is and how much I enjoy it.

In reply to kathy Owen. This store currently has artwork on a huge sale. I think when I get back to town, I'll stop by to see if they have another good bargain. gail

As I just told Shane, I think I’ll keep an eye out for another piece of his work, but smaller. 🙂

In reply to Shane Dorries. Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment Shane! I like the painting so much, I think I'll be watching for another one that is smaller. gail

In reply to Becky Everson. Thank you Becky. I hope you find a good bargain. The frames are usually the reason I look for artwork. But not this time! gail

Nice work on this project! I’m going to pay a lot more attention to the art section next time I’m thrifting.

We were in Amsterdam last October and enjoyed visiting Van Gogh’s museum. We were there for hours. It’s such an interesting museum. His art is out of this world. I love how you gave the piece a new look with the frame. I need that staple remover for all of my art refresh projects.
