The Framers Forum

Hope you are all getting in the festive spirit?! Shop decs are up. Tree idea shamelessly stolen from Framers Only last Christmas. A whole years worth of scrap frames went into it! The new spray painting setup was a godsend! Festive greetings one and all. I hope the Christmas slog is not too painful!

I really like that. Happily have it over a tree at home but think kids may out vote me on that.

Cheers

One year I made lots of tree 'baubles' using fillet scraps mitred the wrong way, so they formed little tray frames. I cut pics
from a print catalogue and laminated them and put them in the frames. Bit of gold thread - bingo!
They looked great in the shop window adorning my tree.

The problem was people kept wanting to buy them. I didn't realise how many adult doll's house enthusiasts there were.
They were meant purely as publicity bling and weren't what you would call merchantable quality. They were thrown
together with superglue and sticky tape. To make them for sale would have meant charging £20+ each.

They all dropped to bits eventually.

How about an advent calendar? Loads of bits of spacer left over from a job and saved from the log burner!

Brilliant
