When it comes to old pictures, especially those with children AND in victorian criss cross frames, I just cannot resist myself. This sweet old picture is of Red Riding Hood who is apparently trying to convince the Big Bad Wolf to let her walk on the path. The frame is just as sweet and very old fashioned. Although I did not find my picture on eBay, you can find them there if you look under antique print and the subject. For the frames you can enter Victorian Criss Cross Frames, Adirondack Frames, Eastlake Frames, Crisscross Frames or Tramp Art. You just never know what you may find on eBay!

Hello beauty!
I just popped over to see what you're up to, and tell you to run over to my blog...I'm having a Pampered Package Giveaway!
Lots of o's & x's too...

Dearest most precious Becky - I am at work and got your package today. I will be calling ya, probably tomorrow. Oh, my sweet friend, you soooo bless me! Love you bunches. What a special lady you are. Your friend - Esther p.s. Cute pic you have posted here!
Hi Becky, the picture and frame are just darling! I was wondering what that frame type was called and now I know!
Manuela
Ohh that is so pretty. I love those frames, and of course Little Red.
I just adore this vignette. The picture and frame are wonderful. Thanks for sharing the info :-) Rosie
love the picture and the little "peek" at the nest beside it!
I love your pretty vintage pic. and frame. You are right....Ebay is a treasure trove of goodies if you are able to spend the time. i've bought some fabulous pieces for almost nothing. Case in point is an antique sign I bought about 3 yrs ago. It is one of the most beautiful old signs and, for some reason, was located where it wasn't viewed. I ended up being the only bidder and got it for less than postage!
hugs, bj
I love that picture and frame too Becky!
My brother emailed me a few pictures of their Scottie. I'm going to post them on my blog later. You'll have to stop by and check them out.
Very cute picture, and vignette.
Have a great evening,
Rosemary

Hi Becky,
Your little Victorian print is so nostalgic - it looks lovely in the vignette that you have created....although I can't help but think your sheep looks a little worried about the wolf being so close! hehe.
Loved the post below too - that sunbathing dog is so funny.
Have a great day, Niki

Hi Becky,
Love your little picture in the criss cross frame. Your collections are always so sweet. Not sure what to think about the dog in the thong though, but it sure made me giggle.
Hugs,
Lisa
Hi Becky,
Thank you so much for the kind words,it helps to know that we are not just floating alone out here in cyberspace. It is always validating for people to appreciate your creativity and the 'things' you do. But when it comes right down to it, we need to know that these are the times that people really 'get' us..
Also, my son always tells me he wants a dog and a girlfriend for a Christmas gift, his bday is coming... I'll show him the picture..;)
JOY!
OH HOW sweet that is and in the BEST
frame!!
thanks for sharing a smile, deena
That picture is great. Heidi used to come to our front door and ring the bell and tell me she was Little Red Riding Hood. She would love this picture.
Oh! I love this picture! I used to play a game with my mother when I was a little girl. I would ring the front doorbell and be a different person each time. My very favorite and the one I ALWAYS started with was Little Red Riding Hood. My mother patiently answered the door no matter how many times I would ring that bell. There is a photo of me at the age I did that on my CelebrateTheSeasons blog today. :)
Hugs ~
Heidi and Dagi (Hi Doogs!)
Beautiful picture & frame - I love the little vignette with the bird nest :-}.
Hi Becky,

Dena

What a sweet print in that cool frame! I've seen those before but didn't know they were Victorian - learn something new everyday! And I just love that shabby chic little birdy in the nest in your vignette!
That is a beautiful print Becky!!

I thought I knew a lot about vintage collectibles, but I have never ever in my travels come across these criss-cross frames, I shall be looking out for one now. Thanks for showing us, I may not have discovered one if you hadn't. x
Love that little framed pic. I have a great fondness for old sweet prints like that.
