Pretty As A Picture
Looking for a way to put some sparkle on your walls? Spray-painting plain (even ugly) frames in silver and gold is a quick, easy way to get yourself a snazzy set, says home designer Christine Dimmick, author of Home File (Andrews McMeel Publishing, 1998).

Round up all those mismatched frames you've acquired over the years as birthday presents and hostess gifts, or buy a bunch of inexpensive ones. Remove the glass, and spread the frames on a large piece of cardboard in a well-ventilated area. Follow the directions on the paint can, and don't forget to spray the sides of the frames. Finally, let the paint dry thoroughly before inserting your photographs.
