Perfect unexpected way to display your art


I found this oil painting (below) at an estate sale last weekend. I especially loved the colors; so warm and inviting. Wouldn't this be a great place to go and relax on those weekends when you just need to get a way from it all?

Love the stone bridge and what a dream home all nestled under the trees.

My entry table has this architectural piece (faux window) resting against my wall and I've always  love it.


I had a brain storm one night while my whole family was sleeping and I was all inspired and moving everything in my house around.  I do this often, I'm sure there are lots of you that can relate!  It's the way I relax...I know seems nuts, right?
I slid the painting behind the window and I think it has a new home.

Now it gives the illusion that you are looking out a window.

Quick finishing touch with a treasure I love.

These are the little elements that make a house a home, adding your personality and style.
The best part is I only paid a few dollars for this lovely painting.

I'm linking up to Room to Inspire today!

  4. Great idea, Ruthie. Knowing you, it will have a new home in a few months when you crave a new look. Don't you just love the versatility of an oil painting! Have a happy Sunday!
