.frame 78.

another custom order for a client.... holds an 8x10 photo. love how it turned out....
the puzzle piece frames are extra charge, for the time intensity! they take quite a bit longer, as each piece is cut to form puzzle pieces....
such a neat frame.

custom order.
holds a 5x7.
warm tones with some aqua.... modern design with a twist. this is a favorite.... they have all been such a blessing to make....



.frame 76.

wow-eeeeeeeeee this frame took some time.... well, let me re-phrase, every single frame we make takes hours upon hours of work..... these are not simple frames, and all are uniquely designed, crafted and hand painted..... this frame however, offers some of the smallest slats to date...... it took some extra time and patience.... my husband has steady hands and made these careful cuts for a custom order..... love how it turned out.... so happy with it! 
this frame is a big one.... measures 2 ft by 2 ft, and holds an 8x10 photo...


.frame 75.

.frame 66.



this is frame 66.... love these colors! grays, cream, white, toffee, deep yellow, and a pale blue/gray.... such a fun frame!
holds a 5x7 photo. and this one is also for sale....
this frame is 40 dollars, and can also be put horizontally or vertically...
let us know if you would like to purchase this frame or any others! or if and of the frames listed have sold, we can make another one for you.... like we have stated before, NO two frames are alike, we pride ourselves in making one of a kind frames for all of our customers, but it will be similar.... meaning no two pieces of wood get painted the exact same.... so the style and frame would be the same but each piece would be hand painted specifically to that frame....

happy days! christmas is coming! place your orders now! these make amazing gifts, and you won't find anything like it! everyone loves a great picture frame to hold their memories! 

.frame 65.




frame 65. fall colors. inspired by nature and our backyard....

FYI: we have started making frames to sell, versus just listing the custom orders we fill.... this will give people the opportunity to see a frame and have a price, and can snag up a one of a kind frame this way.... we can always do custom orders but several people have requested that we just make them and list them when they are for sale.... please remember though, that anything can be made for you! you tell us the colors, style, and size, and we can match you up with a price and a time frame.
thanks again for your continued support!

 again, colors are fall colors. rust, browns, cream, white, bronze....
it holds an 8x10 photo. it can be placed horizontally or vertically.
this frame has sold, BUT,
please email us if you are interested in purchasing this frame or any others.
christmas is coming!

A Guest Post...



Meet Emily, with CoupleJones.com she is a friend of mine that is doing something good! please read her post below... visit their site, and order this "Space Boy" print
100% of the proceeds go to Compassion International
Great people, working to help a great cause.


  
Let's Do Something Good.

 We are a small blog…we are just one little family. We’re not the smartest or most original people around. I’m probably not going to accomplish great, renowned things that make me famous in this life.

I used to think I was too insignificant to really help anyone. There was a time when I felt like I was unsuited for any kind of ministry at all. But last summer, as I was in my car on an average day, a phrase popped into my head and it’s never left.   “Let’s do something good” repeats in my head a lot. In the last year, I have felt that phrase pressing on my heart more and more. I felt like the Lord was showing me that if I step forward, even in small steps, with the faith that He will walk along with me then I can make the world around me better.


Since then, I’ve started realizing that simple, little acts of love can start ripples and affect people in ways that I would have never thought. There are so many small ways that we can love and encourage the people around us without tons of time or money, a huge gesture or a grand effort on our part. We don’t need to be famous or powerful to leave behind a legacy of encouragement.  Smiling, saying hello, writing happy notes – all these things are actions I can take even on the roughest, craziest day with the girls. And somehow, any little effort I make always ends up refreshing my spirit as well.


So this is our little attempt at doing something good in this space.
Today we have added this print to our shop. It is an 8×10 pdf download of an original illustration that Zac created. We are asking just $8 for the download and 100% will go to Compassion International to help them in their mission to rescue children and their families from poverty. We are hoping that you will join with us and give just a little so that, together, we can share the blessings that we’ve been given with those who are needing our care in this world. We can so easily reach out and uplift and encourage these children who are struggling.
