Little Floral Prints
Aren't these the cutest ever? I found them at a garage sale around the corner from my house. I had gone through the entire house and not found anything, then had an instinct to just do one last cruise through, and found these hidden on a table with a lot of other artwork.
They were $3 each and I didn't haggle at all, which I know I should have, but I've never been good at that sort of thing. Anyway, so maybe I paid too much, but I don't care, they're so sweet.
I was thinking about getting bigger frames for these and matting them with a really wide white or cream border. I was thinking that might make them look fresher and also give me more options on where to hang them. But the little white frames are so cute maybe I'll just leave them.
I haven't found a perfect spot yet for them, so for now they're just propped in front of a mirror in the living room. Where to hang them? Decisions, decisions....
What about you? Do you have any tiny artwork? If you do, where do you hang it? Ideas, please! :-)

these are very cute! I really love the frames because they are the same vintage feel as the prints. {I don't think you paid too much, either}
I have a set of 3 tiny prints hung vertically in my hallway. I really like them there!

i would tuck these away on a wall somewhere close to a reading nook. And when you settle down to read or just to rest a bit, your eyes can wander over to the prints and you'll remember that beautiful promises, just like the flowers, are tucked away in unexpected places in your life, just waiting to be found.

I think they're sweet. And I love when I take the second walk-thru at a tag sale or thrift store and find a hidden treasure.

I like them as they are. I think putting a wider mat around them will make the print themselves look much smaller.
They're very pretty!

I love to group them in places all over. Yours are sweet. I have some in the mudroom, craft room.

Oh, they're so pretty. Very spring-y!
I usually use smaller prints like this in groupings. Maybe with some pretty china plates or a collection of simple wall pockets.

Very cute prints. Florals are so classic.
Just visited your site for the first time today while looking for no-bake graham cracker crust. Love your photos - bright and airy. Very nice (and the cheesecake looked scrumptious, too).

I have two of the same prints by the same artist (M. Black)! I got them many years ago at an estate sale. They are darling propped up against the wall on a bookshelf (part of a vignette) or even against books in a bookshelf.

You could hang them on a cupboard door. Or place them within a larger empty frame. In the bathroom between the vanity and the mirror or medicine cabinet almost as a backsplash.
very sweet prints! adorable blog!
