I like all the frames in my house to be the same color... black. I had a couple frames that were wood, and thus stained.
I first took taped the glass on the frames, as it would not come out.
I did not pick a special kind of spray paint, just whatever was on sale. Again sorry it is sideways, my computer and I do not get along all the time.
My grandfather paints portraits from pictures we send him. He buys frames at a local discount place in Utah, the frames are not always as fashionable as I would like.
I was going to try and save the white fabric on the frames, but that turned out to be a bigger task then just painting over them. I recommend spray painting outside, with a big drop cloth and no wind. We now have some black rocks in our backyard. I also learned how to properly spray paint... long fluid motion and do not over do it! More is not always better, take your time and do a couple coats if you need to or you will get drips and globs of paint.
After I put the small wood frames back together and hung them I realized I should have also sprayed the inside, as the frames are shadow box style.
The other frames turned out perfect as well.
