Remember These?

A couple months after my Husband and I moved into our new house, we purchased these old newspaper front pages for about $8 each. We intended on using them as art in our house, but life just seemed to get too busy and we simply never got around to it. Well...eight months later and we have finally completed this project! The frames were about $12 each from Michaels (on sale for 40% off) and they came with the matting! Quite the steal.




We topped them off with an old thermometer/weather device given to my husband by his Grandpa which I think was the perfect touch to complete the collection. I absolutely love looking at this every time I am upstairs. The newspaper pages are all features, so they are full of large photos that are all very interesting to look at and never get boring.

On Wednesday you should get to my place a few minutes early to see them! I loved them in the antique store, so in order to justify the purchase I had to think of a way to really use them in my house. And they are so fun! One is about Germany, one is about fashion all over the World and one is about natural disasters. The photos are super fun!
