Empty Frame Wall Art

I always loved picture frames and have a lot of them on my walls. Recently I came across this empty frames wall art DIY idea. I have seen these many times before but never thought it can be such an easy diy project. Now I am looking more and more about this wall art. 
Look what all I found. (all pictures via various blogs and Google images)

what I am doing now?... I am collecting frames!

Ananya's Toy Room, before and after

daughter and mom before the decor

Ananya, also called 'shaitanu', 'nanya', 'aanannyaa' by herself! Mom's darling, Dad's partner in all naughty kiddie stuff, loves Minnie Mouse. Ananya is my 2.5yrs old niece and I am her Sonam Maasi, who loves to play with her, pamper her. All maasis love that! Well this cute, adorable just out from the disney's princess's world girl wished to have her own little play area. So her mom and I, went to Michael's for all the accessories and crafting stuff. Well the guidelines my sister gave to me were: 

• decor should be removable and reusable
• very colorful yet simple
• if on wall, should be hung little higher so that Ananya shouldn't reach and break it..
• just as pretty as her daughter, (I say, room cant be as pretty as Ananya, she is far prettier)
• things which has to stay in that room
• and of course, we cant put paint or something like that in apartments.

Have a look...

Well while working on this decor we remembered that we had bought few felt pieces too for some DIY stuffs, which we forgot. So now I'll do that soon and then add to the decor.
