Have you heard about the color of the year – Emerald??

pantone color of the year

Pantone picks a color the year every year. I am always am excited to see what they choose. And my friend Lara at Less Cake More Frosting actually picked this one before it was announced – she’s so ahead of the trend.

So this month Lowes asked their Creative Ideas Team to make a project using Pantone’s Emerald. I wanted to create a project using Emerald that would still work my home decor. And I thought it would be fun to use thrifted frames to create a graphic frame wall.

This is a project that cost me under $20 for the frames – and really makes a statement. Here’s how I created this wall. 

And this is an easy way to incorporate a trendy color without much commitment or money.

frames before

First I went to my local thrift store and found some frames in different sizes and shapes. The frames were less than $20.

paint the frames
Then I painted them Emerald.

arranging the frames

Once the frames were dry, I laid them out on the floor in front of the wall I wanted to hang them on and figured out the placement.

add command strips

Then I used Command Strips to the backs of the frames and hung them on the wall.

 

succulent making

I also made some Mason Jar Succulents. You can find out more about how to make DIY Mason Jar Succulents in this post.

I love the bright pop of color that these frames bring into my home. And the best part is that this project was so easy and inexpensive. This is something that you can do in a couple hours for less than $20. Awesome. I also think this would be an fabulous way to bring interest and color to a wall in a bedroom or entryway too.

    I absolutely LOVE this! It is the perfect idea for decorating my new living room – and in my color scheme too! 🙂

    I have a wall like this in my kitchen, mine are painted white and they are against a darker taupe wall. I had been scoping out clearance racks and thrift stores, but then I totally scored at a garage sale. A big ole box of mismatched various frames for $2.00!! I was so excited, a whole focal wall for a mere couple dollars!

    Great idea! I love those Pantone colors! I actually just painted the inside of my armoire drawers “Honeysuckle” Pantone’s color of the year for 2011.

    Love the picture of the little girl in the Before Picture! She is adorable! Are you saving her for another project? I know I would!

    Love it. I have a collection of frames I haven’t been able to decide what to do with. I love them, yet I want to repurpose them. I can never decide if I want to paint them or not.

    I am totally feeling the Emerald thing and I didn’t even know it. I also applaud your use of Command Hooks. I am addicted to those things.

      I know! I feel the same way. At first I wasn’t sure, but now the color has grown on me. It’s kind of a turquoise-ish green. And I love it now.

      Hi Barbara!!

      thanks! That area used to be painted brown on the walls with maple cabinets. About two years ago we painted the cabinets white along with our kitchen cabinets and put in the beadboard behind and now that area just pops. I use it all the time to display different things. It’s a fun place to decorate 🙂

      xoxo

    I love this shade of green. It’s what’s on my toes. As soon as the weather started warming up I immediately gravitated towards it. It just screams warmth & happiness.
