flea market finds

Im a sucker for anything that reflects the seasons apparently.  And these tapestries are what I found when I was out country last week. At $3.00 each I couldnt leave them. The frames are the perfect size for a project ive been waiting to start. I do love them but they are so dated that now im at a loss as to how best to update them while not destroying the work that someones loving hands have so patiently worked.

 Perhaps she started the one for summer during, well, Summer 

and the Winter scene sitting by the fire one long cold winter.

The Spring blossom tree really caught my eye

but because its Autumn now this one is my current favourite.

So what do you think I should do? The green and brown surrounds need to disappear and the frames kind of let them down too. How best could I showcase such lovely work while giving them a modern take? Ive thought about surrounding them in natural linen and keeping them together in one big frame but id love to hear any other ideas,

please help.

Be sure to pop on over here to see some more lovely finds.

Hope you had a cosy autumnal weekend with the ones you love, x
