Sara Tetley's Beach House Inspired Watercolor framed in an IKEA RIBBA frame.
You have fallen in love with a print, but hesitate to purchase it, as you are worried that the matting and framing will cost more than the art, or you won't find the ultimate mat and frame.
The quality, selection and price of frames are incredibly vast these days, making decorating with art affordable. Many frames come pre-matted, eliminating a matting fee. Whatever your choice of art, stores such as HomeGoods, Target and IKEA offer an assortment of inexpensive and reasonably priced frames.
The white IKEA RIBBA frames shown, serve as the ideal backdrop to showcase various watercolor art. The IKEA RIBBA frames range in price from $2.99 to $29.99 depending on style and size. Target’s sand edge frames for $14.99 to $19.99 would also complement the watercolor art.
Sara Tetley's watercolors displayed in a variety of frame sizes.
The stunning watercolors featured are by Sara Tetley from Beach House Inspired Watercolors. As an architect and artist, Sara is drawn to capturing the play of light and shadow on new and vintage beach cottages.
