When I started making my own frames, I hadn't the slightest clue about what I was doing.
I sort of knew the type of frames that I wanted to make but no idea how to do it.
So I bought this book.
Yes, it's him off the tele,
but whilst this book isn't at all about framing, it does show in easy understandable ways the sort of effects anyone can achieve with a bit of an idea and a paintbrush.
Anyone can buy this book now for a few quid.
It's there as a simple guide and maybe some inspiration towards creating a unique range of handfinished frames.
