A Review on Art Prints in Our Home
Wall art is something every room benefits from. It can totally change the look of a room and make it feel complete. You don’t want to miss this decorating trick when designing a room, but you shouldn’t have to break the bank to get there. Let’s review where you can save money on art prints!
I had been looking for a piece of wall art to place above the bed in our primary bedroom. This lovely, affordable art print is from a shop called North Prints. From all the sizes given at the time of purchase, I downloaded the 11X14 option and sent it to a print shop. In the meantime, I found the brown wood matted frame on Amazon, and when both the print and frame arrived, I quickly pulled this together for a beautiful addition above the bed.
Where to Find Affordable Art Prints
There is no question I have my favorites due to my experience with purchasing wall art from various companies. The quality is exceptional, and the prices are reasonable, always making me return for more!
Decorating Tip: A common mistake is hanging artwork or pictures too high. The artwork and picture’s center are 57 inches from the ground to match the average eye level. This will bring balance to your room, allowing the art to be admired comfortably.

Best Places to Get Affordable Frames
Thrift or Antique Shops
Don’t shy away from stopping by a thrift or antique shop to find a usable frame. Even if the frame has a picture that is not your style, remove it and insert your own vintage print. You never know what you will find as these stores have products that come and go daily; make it a regular outing to increase your luck in finding frames and other amazing vintage finds.
Ikea
I recently picked up a few Ikea frames, and the quality is exceptional for the price. They offer frames in white, natural wood, brass, silver, and black in many different design styles.
Michaels
Michaels has a few everyday affordable frames, or you can sign up for their newsletter to get a percentage off their full-priced frames.
Amazon
Amazon has some beautiful frames for reasonable pricing. My latest find was this brown wood frame. The insert is not standard glass but durable plexiglass. You would never know by looking at it, and it still gives that high-end look.
