Mountcutting Challenge!

A regular cross stitch customer came in with something a little unusual in the shape of a stitched celtic cross and wondered if I could cut a mount to follow the shape of the cross.

Luckily we have a computer mount cutter so after taking some measurements and a little work in the design software we were able to follow the outline.

Here is the result and we have even been able to match the colours of the stitching.



So if you have an unusual item that would be enhanced by a custom shaped mount drop by and see what we can do.

Tall Order

It has been a hectic six months but Christmas is a distant memory and a rush of New year business now out of the way.  So it is time to catch up and let you know what has been going on in the framing world.  We plan to keep this blog updated on a regular basis from now on.

So here is a "tall" order that came our way a while back.  It is a Gustav Klimpt print but in rather unusual dimensions.  The ruler on the table next to the frame is a metre long!

It is understood this will hang in a stairwell.

More to follow soon.
