Another quick project - Vintage frames.. D

I have recently finished redecorating my bedroom and along the way I found a couple of pewter frames - I could not bring myself to give away and thought they could be upcycled/altered to tone in with my bedroom.  They definitely needed a lift lol.  

The colours I used for my room are beige, cream and brown.  I did not want the frames the same so I basecoated them.  I then painted them - one in brown and the other in cream - I drybrushed over the raised elemnts using the cream on the brown and vice versa.  I finished them off using a little inka gold, gold and champagne.  Voila over and done with lol.  Told you it was quick and yet satisfying too.

Now for the pics
