Filling an empty spot
I had an empty wall in my living room that needed
to be filled and this is what I came up with.
I bought the frame in Hobby Lobby for 50% off so I only paid $20 for this beauty. The plate I had. I actually have 2 more, I bought them in Country Curtain last year.
A few night shots.
Love the patina.
Found one more while I was browsing and thought it was a good size for layering, I just scratched it up a bit. This one was only$12.
Gotta love Hobby Lobby with there 50% off sales! Hope your all having a great week!

I love that! I have a plate that was my grandmother's that would look lovely framed like yours.
It looks wonderful! That frame is beautiful and I love the way it fills that corner...
Love the framed plate. What a great idea! Hobby Lobby has fabulous sales. Great finds!
Great way to fill a space. I love the frame! xo ~Liz
wow- how pretty that is.. You are so creative.
I think it all looks just perfect for that space. Even better when the items are 50% off. Beautiful!!
Love that frame. Great idea for filling the spot with beauty.
Oh Martina, that's pretty! I love the frame.
Gorgeous frame...how clever to add the littl plate to the inside too! Love your iron lamp...so pretty :o)

what a great frame! I'd love a similar one for above my fireplace.
Hi Martina, What a perfect fit for that spot. Love the frame and the blue plate is so pretty. It goes so well with your items on the table.

Martina- What a great job of filling an empty space. I really love the "framed" plate. It really combines well with your other pieces. Love the little frame, too. Love HL! xo Diana

Love the frame and the plate..Never been to a Hobby Lobby.
Have a wonderful day! Also your lamp is beautiful!
Very pretty!
We don't have a hobby lobby here... but I hear such wonderful things about that store! love what you got and the plate looks great in the frame!!!
Boy, you got a great deal on that beautiful frame. I wish I had a Hobby Lobby...we only have Michael's!
Your frames are lovely, Martina. I like the square plate in the middle of the frame, very nice!
Hugs, cindy
Great, now I have to go, Martina! And I've been so good staying away, too! : ) I love the frame around that little plate, it makes it look not so little and important.
I love it....love that look...and on sale too! perfect!
Love those frames and how you used them. I've seen them before and admired them not ever knowing what I would put in them. Now I know! You've given me such great inspiration. I love your sweet little plate framed that way. It's no longer just a plate, but a piece of art.
Hobby Lobby does have good prices on frames when they go half off. Love the framed plate. Just a thought though I would lower it. I know it will be behind that gorgeous lamp, but it will look great closer to the table.
Martina,
You have a good eye! Both frames are winners.
I might have to copy cat that framed plate. It is so pretty. The patina on the frame goes well with the color of the dish.
I am now going to look at some of the frames in the basement!
Thanks for inspiring!

This is such a great idea! It looks so pretty too.
So pretty. I love using empty frames and adding something pretty like you did.
Thanks for your always very sweet comments!

Neat idea...there is so much you can do with pretty frames. You can't beat Hobby Lobby's half price sales. I stay up until midnight on Sat. to check their website to see what will be on sale for the next week. I know...I'm crazy! lol...I also love the lamp. Is that something you found recently? Kristen
So creative~what a nice paring Martina!
Hi Martina,
I love the frame with the plate. It's so pretty.
Dee
Martina, your corner filled up very nicely! Love what you did with that wall!
Very pretty.I love those frames. Thanks for sharing.
I KNOW, Hobby Lobby has some great frames and great prices! The plate inside is perfect.
I LOVE your "space filler" just gorgeous! We recently got a Hobby Lobby and I LOVE going there. My goodness, I always leave with more than what I went for, lOL! :)
Kristi
Love your vignette with the blue potteries and the gorgeous lamp with the pretty burlap shade. The new frame is absolutely gorgeous... love the patina and details on the frame what a wonderful bargain:)lovely post!Thanks for sharing with us!~Poppy
Looks great Martina! We think so much alike. I just did something very similar in our guest room this past week. Thanx for coming to THT!
A very clever idea! Might just have to copy that. x Sharon
This is a beautiful idea Martina!
Martina I can't help but laugh because I saw the thumbnail for this post at Sherry's party and was immediately drawn in. I should have known it was you! As always, you've scored with this beautiful arrangement.
xoxo,
Kim
I adore the way you "fill your spaces", Martina! Thank you for sharing this lovely space at Potpourri Friday!
You can always use a good frame. These are some good finds! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
I love this Martina, it is so pretty!! The frams is beautiful and I love the plate. It ties into the table and tablescape beautifully!
