March’s Framing Project of the Month

A Pinball Light Box

Last month we built a lightbox for this rare pinball machine cover.
Whether you’re a collector looking to showcase a favorite game, or just looking to bring some attention to a piece, a well-built frame with backlighting can bring the piece to life.

Small Works Feb 14 – March 31

Featuring over 70 local artists
and 100+ pieces

This show changes daily!

As work sells we replace the piece with something new.

Printing Projects From Melissa’s Desk!

Restoration of a bubble glass portrait. 

Bubble glass portraits, popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, were often housed in convex glass frames, giving them a distinctive curved appearance. While these portraits hold immense sentimental and historical value, they are also susceptible to fading, cracking, and other damage over time. Digital photo restoration offers a way to preserve and restore these treasured images without compromising the original.

February’s Framing Project of the Month
A Grandmother’s Gloves

This frame design started with a beautiful set of vintage gloves and a few handkerchiefs. As we began the design process we asked our client if she had any other objects that belonged to her grandmother. She went home and found a fantastic collection of items including hair combs, an embroidered pouch and an oval portrait. We love guiding our customers towards a one of a kind design.
