Vintage Audubon Bird Art Prints You Need In Your Home

I’ve slowlyyyy been curating spaces around our home. I finally finished the dresser in our bedroom that I started painting two years ago. Now that it’s done it’s a blank space for decor! I prefer home decor that is pre-loved, beautiful and doesn’t break the bank.

Downloading art prints from the public domain and printing it out to put in a thrifted frame is such a great and inexpensive way to decorate your home. There is a lot of open access art work out there and it’s kind of a headache to sift through it all. Kadie, the writer of A Home is Announced blog, wrote up a super helpful guide that I reference often for finding art prints on the public domain. She also has different curated collections of art that you can browse and download. Read her blog here.

I was searching for artwork for our dresser refresh (see that reel) and came across a bunch of Audubon bird prints! I decided on the whip-poor-will print for our bedroom. All I had to do was download, resize the image, and print at the store! I put it in a frame that I picked up at the thrift store. I’m in love with the way it turned out! It’s added so much character to our bedroom.

Today to save you the trouble I’m sharing 9 of my favorite Audubon prints that I found while searching for art for our bedroom. These would be perfect for a gallery wall or even a frame TV background. I’m thinking about printing a few to hang up in my dad’s cabin on his property in the woods!
