Reclaiming Old Picture Frames

I do a lot of projects around the house, including painting. It is a sure fire way to save a peice of furniture, and can add a new face to many different objects.
Right now I have been buying frames for 49 cents at a local thrift store.

Here is an example of the frame at the corner, with the original pink paint visible.

Once I am done doing this with spray paint, no one will be able to tell the difference between mine and a new one. My living room has been instanty redecorated, for hardly any cash at all. I don't have alot of money, and the way it looked was driving me nuts. I began to think up ways I could change my environment and not spend money.

This is a very cost saving thing to do, and falls in line with the values of living a greener lifestyle and repurposing objects rather than trash them.
