Picture Frame Makeover Don't you just love it when a long awaited projects starts to come together? We've had the one large oil landscape on the staircase for years. It's a favorite painting of mine. It's what my hubby and I gave each other that year for Christmas.  I've toyed with different ideas to complete the blank space, but nothing really sang to me.
