And here we thought we were just about the only blog about framing. Congrats on your launch – it’s an attractive set-up and your latest “handling tips” post was well written. Looking forward to more.

Hey, thanks very much! Yep, we noticed that in the UK, there are a lot of blogs and websites geared towards framers or just to sell the service, but not a lot that also include information for customers … plus it’s about time framing took the limelight eh!

Hi there, Have just started my own blog to share my passion on framing. I am from Australia and am very passionate about framing, frames and design. looking around for people with similar passions I stumbled on your post about a day in the shop. I thought it was just us but you summed up almost all my days.

Ahhh, hello! Wow, glad it’s the same all over! Keep going with the blogging it’s worth it. I’ll keep an eye out for yours, do you also spread the word on Twitter? What part of Oz are you from? My Sister lives near Adelaide! Hope business is good & it’s always great to connect with other framers!

Hey, I am from Brisbane and business is great considering we hear from most of the reps that everywhere is quiet. We must be doing something right. My main roll is serving the customers so I really relate to this post especially the maddness when its busy.
I travelled to Adelaide with my mum last year on a short art venture. We went to see the homestead of Hans Heyson. If you ever visit your sister there you must go. It is an amazing experience. Especially the framing!!!!

Oh, I’ve got a friend in Brisbane! I’ll be going to see my Sister next year, so thanks for the heads up! Glad business is busy, we’ve got the same here, reps telling us it’s not busy. I think if you’re passionate about framing, people will always find you! Good luck!

Hello. Thank you for starting this blog. More people need to know about that framing industry in my opinion. I have had so many beautiful things made for me that just make basic pictures look amazing. Most people just let things like collect dust in a box.
Thank you again,
Lynn

Hi Framing Fairy,
Nice to see a blog with framing advice for customers. Generally customers have little knowledge of the process, techniques and skill that goes into picture framing. Kingswood have been at it for 25 years and we are still finding new things out. Please follow us on twitter to see what we are up too, and find us on facebook too.
Keep up the love for picture framing,
Sarah

Hello,This is Really amazing blog.Picture frames displaying the photographs of our grandparents, parents and children help us to remember them. Wedding couples like to place their marriage photographs in picture frames. Nicely designed picture frames are integral part of interior home decoration.

The right frame for your artwork will always make or break your artwork. We strive to accompany, as much as possible, the art we’re provided or work directly with the artist to showcase their art, rather than overshadow it. If you’re in western washington state, just south of Seattle, please stop by and we would be glad to assist any artist for free! http://www.puyallupcustomframeandart.com
