We have a bunny picture. It’s Peter Cottontail and was scored, with double matting, at a yard sale for $.50. Last spring (as in 2010)! I planned our playroom around this picture by adding the Pottery Barn Kids Peter Cottontail valances to the windows and painting the room a great shade of green to match. In all the planning, I never actually bought a frame for it. So, this picture has lived everywhere in the playroom except where it belongs: on the wall!
I mentioned here that awhile back we had purchased a bunch of canvases and were planning to paint them. That all changed and I had to return the collection of canvases. Mathlete probably wouldn’t be too happy about me just storing 6 11×14, 4 8×10 and 4 9×12 white canvases with no foreseeable plan to use them.
So, off Baby E and I went to A.C. Moore
Now, I’ve been to A.C. Moore or its brother, Michaels, dozens of times in the recent past. Every single time, I forget about the bunny picture frame until I get all the way back home. Not this trip! Ta-dah…a frame for the bunny picture:
I scored it for $7.50 because they were running a sale plus offering 15% your entire purchase. (Oh, I did pick up 2 larger canvases but I actually have plans for those!) I’m not a fan of the natural wood color for where it is going so I’ll throw some paint on it (soon-ish) and Mr. Rabbit will take his rightful place on the playroom wall.
Ever go to the store several times to get something only to forget it every time? Do you leave pictures just lying around leaning on walls until you get around to framing them?
