BEATRIX POTTER PRODUCTS - GIFTS
The beautifully tinted illustrations are beautiful images and examples of juvenile art that have been enjoyed by generations of children in the nursery. With the recent release of the Beatrix Potter movie their popularity has reached new heights. Urban children who have never seen a classic, English garden were thrilled and touched by the animated woodland creatures that came to life in the imagination of the artistically gifted Miss Potter. As much as we enjoy viewing Beatrix Potter art featured in the pages of our children's storybooks, you might wonder when would it be appropriate to frame these watercolor drawings and display them?
Here are some ideas for styles of decor where your Beatrix Potter art prints and pictures will be right at home. THE NURSERY
BEATRIX POTTER ART FOR ADULTS I will take the pictures of Mrs. Tiggywinkle and Jemima Puddleduck from their white, wicker picture frames and have them professionally mounted in some antique sterling silver frames that I have been saving especially for that purpose. I have to have something to look forward to that will take some of the sting out of the thought that my babies will grow up before I’m ready. It's hard to imagine that I won’t always have a child waiting for me to read the Tales of Peter Rabbit to them before bedtime every night.
RESOURCES BEATRIX POTTER ART PICTURES and PRINTS If the book is damaged; what better opportunity for a cheap price would you ever find? You could probably buy the entire book for less than the price of one fine art print and if you point out that the book is damaged the owner might let you take it for free to save them the trouble of hauling it off. Once you have made your bargain, remove the page with the picture that you want and take it to your favorite framing shop. If the picture on the page is too small, you could use it as a background for a shadowbox made to display your collectible figurines or you could use a wide mat to make it seem bigger than it is.
