Let's be honest here... sometimes the frame is prettier than the art. With that in mind, why not show off the frame? Why does it have to be secondary? Well, it doesn't. And this photo is a great example of that. A beautiful color on the wall, the abnormal sizes, the different colors... it's fantastic!

Oh charming!
and now for a long shot...
several months back there was a post that included a few photos (or maybe only 1?) of a room that was done in the above color theme (cool, muted blue-ish green with golden/chartreuse yellows)
I've been trying desperately to find it..any thoughts of where that might be?

I display on a dresser a single empty frame, which I nabbed from a thrift store. I intend to eventually paint something to go into it, but I like the display as it is. I often rotate plants in front of it so that it sort of frames them. These are bad pictures but you get the idea.

whitephoenix- I dig the pics! I'd love to see it from a distance to see the overall effect. Great idea though :)
