"My name is Anthony Maddaloni and I'm going to be talking about decorating with old photographs. One fun thing I like to do with photography that doesn't really have anything to do with taking pictures is that I like to go to thrift stores, flea markets, garage sales, estate sales. And I like to look for old photographs. And I like to look through them. And I like to find the really interesting ones. Ones that show people doing pretty interesting things. It could be anything from smoking a cigarette, to riding a bicycle, to driving an old car. And then what I do is I frame them. And I hang them in my house as decorations. And this can be an excellent way to photo, to use photographs to decorate very very inexpensively. And one way you can also do this, is that you can make some money doing this. I find old photographs and frame them and resale them to interior decorators to people looking to furnish their houses. So it could be a little bit lucrative too. So there's one way that you can use old photographs to furnish your house."
