Glitter: It’s a “Good Thing”

October 22nd, 2009 by Nellie

When people see our glitter covered frames, they often ask “What in the world would you frame in that?”.

GlitterRowWe’ve framed lots of things with glitter, including but not limited to: 

diplomas, children’s masterpieces, pet photos,  picasso prints, political campaign memorabilia, mirrors, folk art and fine art…

When we found these frames in Italy, I considered it cutting edge bringing glitter into the fine art world, but leave it to Martha Stewart to take it to the next level. Did you know there is an entire section of the Martha Stewart website devoted to glitter crafts??

The project that really set off my glitter sensors is “glitter painting“. It’s a process invented by Martha Stewart and her crafty elves wherein you upload a photo to her site and a version is returned to you which is ready to basically “glitter by number”.

I have an idea what my family might be getting for Christmas…

Watch Martha demonstrating the technique on the Jay Leno show. Make your own and bring it to us for framing!!

A Harvest of Photo Frames

October 16th, 2009 by Nellie

Where else can you go in this city to find so many fabulous photo frames in one location? Nowhere. That’s where.

glamour_booksWe are currently featuring amazing deals on designer Italian frames. A high-end frame company cleaned out their warehouse and sent us boxes and boxes of frames. It’s like Christmas come early for Jenny (Vice-president of Photo Frames). She’s in charge of unpacking all the boxes and keeping the shelves filled. She has no idea what frames they sent us and each box is different.  The frames in the photo above would normally sell for $40 to $100 but you can have them for $15 to $40!  While supplies last….Picture 002
