Before – Goodwill Artwork Makeover

This artwork stuck out to me at Goodwill recently. Not for how it looks overall right now, but for the prints themselves. I love a good black and white, vintage print. When I saw these, I knew I could transform them easily, with just a little bit of paint that I already have. So easy and cheap. These prints were $4.99 and $6.99. It doesn’t get much better than that! Stick around to see how I transform these with just a little bit of paint and a few minutes of my time.

Goodwill Artwork Makeover – VIDEO

#1 – Deconstruct the Frames (carefully)

I took the frames apart so I could paint the frames and the mats separately. Painting these two things will give these prints an entire new look.

#2 – Paint Mats and Frames

I chose Chantilly Lace (Benjamin Moore) for the mats and Revere Pewter (Benjamin Moore) for the frames. Initially I thought I would leave the frames black, but I loved the idea of softening them up a bit so the print really shines. I’m so happy I painted them Revere Pewter as I really love the way they turned out!

In the pictures below, the frames and the mats look like the same color, but they aren’t, I promise 😉
After 2 coats, the frames and mats were ready to go. Let’s get them put back together!

#3 – Time to Put them Back Together

And that’s it, folks! Time to put these prints back in their frames. Seriously so happy with how they turned out. Now I just need to find a home for them somewhere in my house. Can’t wait to find the perfect spot for them to live. Check out the finished product below.

After – Goodwill Artwork Makeover

I love the way they turned out! They look so good in my bedroom, they might just end up staying in there. We’ll see I guess!

Sometimes I miss our old house, because it felt so Sometimes I miss our old house, because it felt so much more put together than our current house. Projects with a toddler and a baby are no joke. But so worth it once they’re done 🙌🏼 working on getting back in the groove of sharing projects over here. I have a few up my sleeve that I’m excited to share soon 🙃

Just in case you didn’t realize that paint alone Just in case you didn’t realize that paint alone could make a transformation like this. With some paint and a paint brush, you can practically change your whole house. Stay tuned for more ideas on how to use paint to change just about everything 🙃

I’ve always loved @thenester but for some reason her book, Cozy Minimalist Home, is hitting me different this time. I’m currently knee deep in figuring out how to get more style with less stuff. Anyone else big into that?? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Excited to see where it takes me!
