I can say for certain that my favorite part about this piece is that the customer who had it framed is a good friend so I will be able to see it again when I visit her. It is just so beautiful.

You know whatâs great about having a young kid? They keep you humble. Months ago I was at a local park taking pictures for a family. I was crouched down near some flowers that had been planted and as I started to lose my balance I slid into the edge of the planting a tiny bit. What I didnât realize is that a small cactus had been added to the landscaping and I brushed up against it as I slid. It wasnât a huge problem, I finished the session and pulled the needles out of my pants when I got back to the shop. My son heard the story though and will still occasionally bring it up, sometimes even conveying the tale to strangers if he thinks itâs pertinent. So when my son saw this cross stitch when it was finished of course his first question was âIs that the type of cactus you slid into at the park?â No, it is not. Iâm sure this sweet cactus cross stitch would never hurt anyone, not even their pride. đ

I posted yesterday that we are closed today so we can spend time with family that is in town visiting. Well, here is that family! I hope my family members have not yet grown tired of receiving framed gifts from me. đ

We will be closed for a day but this time for a good reason⊠we have family in town! So thankful for the time together and thankful for customers who understand when the shop needs to adjust hours a bit!

Howâs this for a Throwback Thursday? My customerâs husband owned an Orange Julius franchise and this photo was taken on its opening day. Eventually they decided to close the location but while they were taking everything out his father kept some of the wood that lined the walls and created a frame out of it. This is what I mean when I say that while we offer a large selection of frames sometimes the perfect frame wonât come from our store. And thatâs okay! We still love to help you make your project a reality! In this case we did a light restoration of the photo, bringing back its original coloring and removing some wear & scratches before printing a new image to fit into this wonderful frame. Whenâs the last time you had an Orange Julius? â„ïž

Since I canât do all of the traveling I want to do yet I will continue to see the world through my customersâ works of art that they have picked up as reminders of their vacations! Today we are traveling to Positano, a cliff side village on the Amalfi Coast of southern Italy. Ciao!

Have you heard of a Pittsburgh artist by the name of Sam Thong? With a shop in Station Square his portraits & caricatures are somewhat of a staple within Pittsburghâs culture. I have had the pleasure of framing several of them over the years including this portrait of my customersâ young son and his work is always vibrant and full of detail. Iâll include his website information here if you want to check out his work! Samthong.com
