To this....
I left the inner part gold and just brushed over it with a little glaze. Sorry for the glare, the sun was steaming in my dining room windows when I took these.
My mom and dad brought the angel back from Italy for me.
A little bit of paint can make such a big impact. I love the change!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great week!

Oh, the Benjamin Moore's "Boreal Forest" color really accents the colors in the pictures. LOVE the color and that you glazed the outer edge of the frame and left the gold on the inner part. Still wonderfully traditional but with a great new "kick". I'm going to "borrow" your idea and glaze my gold frames.Thanks for the inspiration.
I really like the new look! I agree. Paint can transform just about anything!
Love the transformation. A little bit of paint can do wonders.
Love it Martina...they really look great in that color and pop!
I need to do that same thing. Great redo on your frames.
Love the touch of gold, Martina!
Hi Martina,
Wow! Your frames turned out fantastic! It’s such a quick and clever update.

Between you and Kim, I'll now have to repaint every gold frame in my house, because they look so much better when they're freshened up! Great idea, Martina. Hope you're having a great week, and Happy Easter to you and your family :))
xo, Andrea
Your prints are so pretty and look amazing in your newly painted frames! Love them :o)
~Des
Very snazzy look to those frames!
Brenda
Great choice for freshening up. The prints are so lovely. Great job!
Great color choice. I agree it is sure something how paint can change the whole look:)
Yep, we are connected at the hip somewhere. I painted a frame in more of a green color, too that I haven't shown yet and there you go and do the same thing. They look great.
That color works so much better with your decor, Martina. Very nice.
Looks lovely, Martina!
I love the green Martina. Your frames are beautiful.
Martina, don't you just love the magic of paint :):) I sure do. Your picture were beautiful in their "new" frames. Smiles, Susie(She Junks)
You've really transformed the frames, I love the green on them. Simply brushing the old white has made the second set of frames really pretty, I hadn't thought of doing that.
Have a lovely day, Martina.
Hugs, Cindy
It's amazing what a little paint can do. These look so much better toned down, so rich looking. Great transformation!
Hi Martina!
The green frames look elegant and beautiful. I would have never thought of that. Love it! I'm using shades of green as the new accent color in our home redecorating. It's my new favorite color.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving me kind comments. I appreciate it very much. I'm now a happy follower of your blog and would be honored if you would follow mine as well. It's always great to get to know our blog friends better.
Warmly, ~Melissa :)
Beautiful transformation! And I just adore your angel! What a wonderful gift from your parents! :)
Looks great Martina! I'm finding that I'm using more and more shades of green in my decor now! Enjoy your day, Gail
Martina,
Green is my favorite color so of course I think they look fabulous!
Such a little change makes such a big impact!
Rebecca
WOW! These turned out great. And, yes, little paint can make a big difference.
Your frames and pictures look fabulous in that elegant antique looking green. I love the way you grouped them together as they're all the same size. Love the wall look with them. Wishing you and yours a HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY.
FABBY
Martina,
Great color.They really stand out more on your wall.
Anne
I can't believe what a difference it made in your frames and the way it really makes the artwork stand out more. Beautiful!
Looks great Martina! You made your frames looks so expensive. I love the new finish!
Martina, What a great idea you have given me! So inspiring. I have so many really expensive and beautiful frames that need something.... I can't bear to part with them. You have the answer! I hope my frames come out as beautifully as yours did!
THANK YOU!
Hugs!!!!! Yvonne
Martina the colour you chose is just perfect. It is so elegant, warm and inviting. I absolutely love it.

I painted some frames two weeks ago and they are still in the garage, something just wasn't right about them. I'm thinking maybe brushing on some AS white might help.
Bliss
