I saw a couple at Kirlands but they didn't fit my decor. I actually need several pictures/wall hangings but I'd really be happy if I found something for the dining room on this trip!

Does anyone have any idea where I might look for larger pictures?
Try TJMaxx and Pier One. Sometimes you can hit it lucky at Bargains and Treasures but even pictures can be "dated" in how they are framed or in subject matter such as pastel Southwest pots on a table with a southwest scarf.

Go on line to JCPenneys and don't forget to chat up some of your friends and new aquaintances who would be willing to paint one for you for free. Stop in at one of the art studios in the recreation centers and see what people are painting and ask if they sell their work. Check Michaels too. AND don't forget Bealls outlet. Lots of nice things and changes frequently. Go to different Bealls, they have different stuff.
