Ideas for framing photos - DIY (Do It Yourself)

Inspired by this:

I made this:


I found a frame with a small matte at the Dollar Tree for $1.  
I took the matte out and painted it yellow with watercolor paint (you can use whatever kind of paint you have on hand).  

I took a photo from Romania and printed it with my home printer on photo paper.  I printed it black and white but I think a light sepia (how it appears in the above snapshot) might look better.  

I quite like how it turned out.  Can't wait to do another!


I chose yellow for the matte because the church in the original photo is yellow:
