It's the perfect time to start thinking about the Christmas countdown! We love the fun and tradition of advent calendars in our house. Every morning it’s a mad race to officially mark it one day closer to Christmas. Bring the family together with these simple DIY ideas!

We can’t believe it’s already November! It’s been rainy and cold over here, which means more time spent cozying up inside and staring at our walls! To help get those walls looking their best, this month we’ve shared unexpected ways to think about framing for your day-to-day, discussed some important finishings to bring your framed pieces to that ‘wow’ level and my personal favourite – object framing! 

Object framing has to be one of my favourite things. Capturing sweet memories tell your story in the form of wall art and the best part – these artful pieces can be just about anything!

There are countless tiny details that a custom framer considers to bring a project to the next level. These details make the end result feel polished and really help achieve that ‘wow’ moment for our clients.

We recently did a talk at the Beaconsfield Newcomers Club and had a blast! Thank you for having us! We discussed some great ideas that were too good to not share! 

Thanksgiving 2018. Another year of memories, smiles, people and places that make us thankful. 

Bye-bye September and hello October! I have to admit I’m ready for the cozy inspirations that this time of year brings. This month we looked at some great frame designs that mimic the fall fashion trends, as well as talked about some easy ways to add a little of the season to your décor to get you fall ready! We also shared are most asked question at the frame counter and our most requested frame design!

As new trends hit the runway, glimpses of fashion’s most desirable colors and styles are often seen mimicked in décor.  Inspired by Pantone’s Fall/Winter fashion report for 2018, we wanted to show you our versions of the season’s inspiring palette to see how custom framing can keep you trendy.

If you’ve ever been curious about what goes into our frame designs, we’re discussing our most frequently asked question: should you frame for the artwork or the area it’s going into, aka the décor? 

Fall is right around the corner and we’re discussing how to get into the Autumn groove with these simple updates to your décor.

It’s wedding season and I love it! Every bride has certain must-haves that make their wedding their own. It’s these pieces that they’ll look back on with pride and adoration as they think back to their “I-dos”. It’s only fitting then that these special items get the right treatment after the wedding to keep the memories preserved and going strong long after the big day.
