A picture from our local gift shop brought sunflowers and roosters into my French-country kitchen for spring and summer. It looked too small against the backsplash on its own, so I layered it in front of a board I already had.
A faux sunflower replaced the ivy
The strainer had previously held ivy. For this arrangement, I replaced it with a faux sunflower, keeping the yellow flower theme near the picture.
Reuse a Goodwill board as a backdrop
The green board behind the picture started as a plain blue board from Goodwill. I had painted it with chalkboard paint and used it in the laundry room. Bringing it into the kitchen gave the smaller picture a larger backdrop.
The old egg cups were a gift from my father-in-law. I added a Happy Spring message to the chalkboard to finish the arrangement.
The country-French kitchen tour shows more of the handmade and thrifted pieces in the room. My magazine-clipping kitchen canvas is another piece made for this corner.
