I wanted to join Linda at Coastal Charm for her Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays party! I stopped at a yard sale and saw this picture. I love it! It reminds me of a print my mother used to have, so that is probably the reason I love it so much. It was $2! I also LOVE the frame…
I am going to repaint the black on the frame, but I haven’t had a chance to do that yet.
This print I have had for a very loooong time. My parents got it at an auction when I was probably 12 years old. It hung in my room for years and years and I took it with me when I left home.
Pictures are the HARDEST thing for me to take a photo of! I keep getting reflections! But I do love this print!
Well, that is all I have today! Please check out Linda’s blog and visit the other participants!
Thank you for visiting!

Great find with the still life. I love the little girl praying. I can see why you love it too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great frame on that first picture, Lou Cinda! Love all that detail.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what people find at tag sales and out thrifting. I cannot believe you got that antique print and frame for $2! You stole that one, Lucinda! And the other one with the praying bear and child is so sweet. I was just thinking about things that were in my room as a child. I had a pretty grown-up room with the exception of my toys, and I think that is one reason I love whimsy so much! I had botanicals on the wall and also a very scary picture of my grandparents sat on a piece of furniture, and I used to be terrified of it. For some reason, the photographer had shot a bust shot of them and had floated it in the picture. I knew he was dead, and it used to scare me to death. LOL! Vivid imagination.

Lou Cinda,
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming to NIFTY THRIFTY TUESDAYS...I hope you are having a blast at the PAR-TAY! Great buy with that print...luv that frame! What can I say about that 2nd print? Well...it's the sweetest thing ever...I understand why you still have it:)
Blessings,
Linda
What a wonderful find!
ReplyDeleteAnd having that print still with you is so special.
Great frame. I kind of like the distressed look of it, but I'm guessing that doesn't work with the style you're going for. Great find though!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find. I just love the print of the little girl and bear. Somethings never go out of style and you never get tired of looking at them. This is one of them.
