I found this 7 Gypsies Frame at Archivers the other day. What a great way to display seasonal ATCs! I have a huge collection from years of swapping, hidden away in binders in my studio, and I rarely take the time to look at them anymore. Such beautiful artwork. The light bulb went on when I found this frame. I dug out those binders, and found 12 Valentine-ish ATCs, and they are now proudly on display in my kitchen! It adds such a punch of color to my kitchen and I just love it! I've already chosen 12 Spring/Easter ATCs to replace them with next month. I went back a few days later and purchased the 7 Gypsies metal carousel style stand for ATCs as well. (with a little help from my 30% off coupons and a Christmas gift card from my husband!) I've been busy filling that up with even more of my treasured ATCs. I've placed the carousel on a side table in my dining room so they can be enjoyed as well.
If you look closely, you might just see one that you made! Anyway, I am so excited about this, I wanted to share it. (I got the typical "oh yeah mom, that's nice" from my family, but I knew YOU would truly share my excitement!)

oh là là! Linda!!! This is gorgeous. I love the idea of changing the atcs for time to time! Wow!
Linda, What a fabulous use for these frames! Absolutely beautiful work you do. I am such a fan! Elizabeth I am pairing individuals in our swap, and I thought you might enjoy Lizzie of Buttercream and Roses. You both have such an elegant style to your paper art.
This turned out great! These were some of my favorite ATCs too!
This is a great idea! We don't have an Archivers near here so I will have to hunt one of these babies down! Thanks for sharing.
