Why Don't You...

...frame a beautiful piece of paper.  I posted about my own paper-framing adventures a while back so I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the May issue of Lonny and spotted a similar look hanging in the lovely Jamie Meares' designed living room pictured above.  I was instantly obsessed.  I did a little investigating only to find out that the coveted piece was purchased from Natural Curiosities and was out of my budget.  so I forgot about it until a month later during my trip to NYC when I just so happened to find the exact paper used in NC's Abstract Paper Collection hanging in Kate's Paperie. Say what?  NC is selling a $27 piece of paper which is available in a card shop for $700+.  Granted the paper is framed in killer acrylic box frames, but come on.  So I guess this is a double Why Don't You...frame a beautiful piece of paper and save a little money, honey!
