Unexpected Art

Recently I shared ideas with art in unexpected places.  If you missed the post, go here.

Today, I'd like to share how I display art in my own home.

I have some sea life prints in mirrored frames.  Since there's a field in my back yard,
 I chose to leave the windows drapery free and placed the frames directly on them.
I also have a large vintage classroom pull-down map between the windows.

In my living room I layered a print over a garden gate.

I had a map framed in quadrants for our master bedroom.

I found this wonderful chunk of wood.
 It was almost two inches thick and already shaped into a half circle.
 My artist friend painted a scene on it for me.  It's layered in front of my pier mirror.

I used an old door as a frame for this pair of prints.

I add art as well as books onto bookcases.

I also applied architectural prints to the spines of books.

How do you like to display your "art"?
