Awesome Framed Art Under $25

IKEA’s $18 RIBBA frames are approximately 24″x36″ with a perfectly sized mat for Cavallini’s 20″x28″ wrapping paper sheets. And once you’ve got the frame, each new sheet of paper is just $4, so you can swap things out seasonally (there are some that would be great for Halloween), or just whenever you’re ready for a change.

Below are some of my favorites, and there are a bunch more over at Paper Source.

    Thanks! Totally doing it but using the slightly cheaper and schoolhouse looking “Cavallini Horizontal Vintage Poster Kit” from Paper Source to display.

    Thanks for the tip! I’ve go three of those frames floating around…and a lust for the Cavallini papers. I always talk myself out of them though.

    I just picked up 2 picture ledges from IKEA yesterday. I guess I’m going back for some frames.

    This is a fabulous idea! I absolutely love those papers, and am especially drawn to the kinda kooky skeleton ones.

    I did something similar for my son’s nursery using an ikea frame and a cath kidston cowboy wallpaper sample (they gave me a huge piece – but I decided it was too busy for a whole wall).
    Great impact and easy to change when you get bored. X
