Want some inexpensive picture frames for your decor, but don't want the expense? Save your calendars and select florals, scenes, etc. to accommodate your living decor. You may have to crop and cut them to fit behind the 5 x 7 and 8 x 10 inch opening mattes. Buy cheap frames and you have your own inexpensive artwork. Great in groups of three in a hallway, etc. You will be able to afford to change them with the seasons for a different look! These make nice little friendship, hostess, or housewarming gifts too.
Note: I would not suggest selling these for profit as there might be copyright laws involved.

ThriftyFun is one of the longest running frugal living communities on the Internet. These are archives of older discussions.
Here is a nice, inexpensive, but still good-looking holiday gift. It's also a good way to recycle old calendar pages.
