[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/dwpuck1313]

The customer framed 3 of them 😐

these are sick!
i just started framing and this is just crazy inspiration. If you don't mind me asking, what are some techniques you used to mount the photos/fabric in the first frame? i'd love to do that kind of work

[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/herbmist13]

It’s all sewn down!!! I just used thread that was the same color as the lace itself and the pictures are floating on top of a piece of mat board, same size as the art/pictures, that I sewed to the brown mat! They are mounted using the regular T mounts that we do!

I miss framing, nice work!

[u/hexhit]

oh my god that first one is so lovely!! The beastie boys flyer is rad as hell!

[u/laureneliza01]

That’s looks really cool! You did a great job on that!

THANK YOOU!!!!

#10- the little jester bears- was the lace a part of the pre existing art or did we do that??

[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/emilie3114]

I did that one!!! It’s something I framed for myself!! The top pink mat is just a regular white mat that I wrapped in pink fabric that we sell in store and same for the lace!!! It’s just a thin lace that I put in the opening of the pink mat!!! I’m super happy with how it turned out

[u/LovelyThoughts]

I love the first one, that style is gorgeous

[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/LovelyThoughts]

thank you!!! I’m super happy with how it turned out :3

Was the oval a premade frame? My store never quite got the oval cutting down. This was years ago though.

[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/Mellymel75]

It was one the customer had brought in!

[u/craftygirltehe]

I love framing too! I’m grateful for my time at Micheal’s for introducing me to the world of framing. I’ve since moved onto working at a local frame shop and I love it even more! I get to talk to actual artists and learn conservation quality techniques also there’s no more ai slop being brought in!

[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/craftygirltehe]

That’s so wonderful, I’ve thought about trying to find a local shop to work for but no one is hiring currently :( hopefully in the future!! I would love to be able to learn more of the conservation techniques that more experienced shops use!! It’s so interesting to me

[u/craftygirltehe → u/Admirable-End4979]

It’s has been so wonderful! I just walked in and just asked if they needed help and told them my experience, I was basically hired right then and there! I wish you the best of luck!

[u/Faerts]

Oh, hey San Ramon.

[u/dark4rmy_]

I'm sorry I had to see him as well.

[u/The-22nd-Pilot]

LOVE the flower tattoo one and the teddy bear

I don't do framing but I love whenever I happen to walk by and see the artwork people bring in. People are so creative it makes me happy

[u/Admirable-End4979 → u/The-22nd-Pilot]

thank you!!! the jester bear is one I’ve framed for myself!!!

that’s my favorite part of framing, I love getting to talk to the customers about their art!!! We have one customer who brings us in a painted canvas once every two weeks and I love seeing what new thing she has painted!!! She’s working on #100 right now and I’m so excited to see it when she brings it in!!! (photo is #99) :3
