Wall in Master Change and Wow Us Wednesdays #10


Queen of change is at it again. I made a couple of changes to a wall in the master.
Change is good, right?


 
 This is what the wall did look like, but I think the new look is better.


I just traded the two red flower pictures with this framed burlap and plaque from the powder room.


This is an old frame that I painted a while back and then attached burlap to it and added this Italian wooden art piece.




I decided to add these plates around the platter that was already there above the mirror.


I love the look with the plates added.


This looks better with the new colors in the room than the former red flower pictures.


Sorry the photos aren't good. It was cloudy today.

Now, I want to see what you are going to WOW us with this week.

Party guidelines:

I love the plates on the wall Kim. Thanks for hosting.

Sue said...

Oh yes- the more subtly framed picture fits the decor more nicely, and the addition of the plates fills the space and completes the look above the mirror. Nice job, Kim. LOL - Editing is a never ending process! Thanks for hosting.

Linda (Nina's Nest) said...

Hi Kim, that room is so pretty. I do like the plates and picture change. Oh, I have the toile fabric that you have on the pillows and I'm planning to change out my red for the summer. Hope it looks even half as good as yours does! Linda

Vivienne @ the V Spot said...

It is amazing how the addition of those 3 tiny plates creates such an impact! I also love that you put a framed piece of art into another frame. That is genius and I am going to have to try that too. Thanks for hosting the party.

ℳartina @ Northern Nesting said...

Love the changes Kim! The added plates look great and I love the frame with the burlap and artwork. Martina

Linda (Nina's Nest) said...

BTW, Kim, I've noticed that I do not see the followers on my blog. I checked and on many other blogs, I don't see their followers either, including yours. I'm wondering if it's my computer or Blogland difficulties?? Linda

So funny! You remind me of myself...I can just see you in bed studying the wall....thinking :)
I do like it better.

Molly said...

Just when I think your house can't get any cuter you go and tweak something to a higher form of perfection!! It all looks lovely but I was especially drawn to the frame inside the larger frame. It gives the picture such presence. Thanks for another great idea!!

Jo said...
