Last week, decorator Wayne Shielly decided to frame a stack of antique engravings he's had stashed in a closet for years. Instead of dropping hundreds at a frame shop, Wayne headed to Goodwill.

Wayne did pretty well at Goodwill. He went armed with his measurements, and found frames and mats for four engravings.
For the engraving in the photo, he found a simple black frame with a double mat. Not entirely pleased with the outer mat, he tea-stained it to look like old parchment. Wayne plans to hang the piece in his study.
