Nice inexpensive prints ?

Anyone care to share prints they have bought for their walls? I quite like traditional or retro prints. We live in an older property. I like those Picasso black and white drawings. Not so keen on canvas prints (not sure why)

Have a look on Fy

Etsy have lots- you can either buy the print or the pdf and print it yourself. We also make a lot of art for our house ourselves- find something we like and then interpret/ copy it. If you buy cheap canvases (pre primed) you can bosh house paint testers (farrow and ball are nice for this) on, let them dry and then make abstract shapes with cheap gold leaf which is super easy to apply. Really fun cheap way to make things that look a lot more expensive and can be bespoke for the space…

Another vote for FY. Put one in your basket and wait/sign up and you should get at least 25% off too.

You can sometimes get nice prints in charity shops

Our house is old too and we have quite eclectic taste, so everything from pre-raphaelite prints to botanical/birds to more contemporary/weird stuff. We've got a mix of vintage (fleamarket/carboot/ebay finds), new (mostly from Homesense/TK Maxx/Punkhaus) and things I've painted myself.

We were given a rather hideous modern oil painting brought back from their Italian hols by someone who was moving and no longer wanted it. I tried to make it work in our home but we both hated it. I was about to charity shop it when realisation dawned that using old match pots I could paint a new subject over the top...now it's one of our favourite art pieces.

Desenio? A bit bland but very reasonable and a few nice choices and I like that you can buy the frames to go with the prints so don't need to worry about doing that too

In our house we have pictures bought at auction (never more than £20) and in my bathroom I have artwork made by people I know. Some prints, some originals. I like to support artists and have found that as grand as that sounds, it's never cost me more than £50. You could ask for a piece as a christmas/birthday gift if it's a bit out of reach financially.
