Re: Is conservation framing any big deal?
I came to the conclusion some time ago that going conservation doesn't make that much difference to the overall cost. We used to stock a concervation board, alphamat, and a whitecore board - two ranges two set of colours with a lot of repeat colours. We now only stock the alphamat and have a bigger ...

Re: Pink Floyd
T Shirt.
On the T shirt the logo was on the front and the tour dates on the back, so I cut it up! Don't like doing that sort of thing it goes against the grain, but the customer OK'd it as he had a draw full.They were then pinned over foamcore and mounted behind the windowmounts.

Re: Pink Floyd
Costing Design. It can be tricky trying to sell these pieces but usually customers come in asking for something special. I try and get a feel for what they want, size, colour, style, conventional, crazy and how much they want to spend. We'll talk very generally about design, for complicated jobs and...

Re: Pink Floyd
The V grooves were done by laying removeable magic tape along the lines where I wanted the groove. IMG_0440.jpg The grooves were then cut down the centre of the tape and painted, the magic tape acting as a mask to protect the surface of the board. As the centre was going to be covered it didn't matt...

Re: Rippling photo problem
I had a problem where an old photo had stuck to the glass in a frame. We ended up scanning it, through the glass, then a lot of touching up. The resulting print was probably better than the original had ever been. I'd scan and print it.

Re: Programmes & Tickets
Hi Perfection I've shown below a couple of examples I've done, using the method Jonny2morsos covered, where someone wants to see the actual program. My method is slightly different in that rather than cutting a hole in foamcore I use four strips of foamcore to make the 'box', the end result is the s...

Love the texture and how it radiates from the picture, like to actually see it not sure the photo does it justice.

Re: Lions Event
Hi Martin I just wanted to thank you for such a fantastic event, brilliant demonstrations and I picked up some good tips and was reminded of a couple that I had forgotten. The only problem I had was explaining to my daughter why she couldn't have £10 worth of smarties with the voucher. Many thanks D...

Re: It’s Not Easy Being A Green Picture Framer
I'm not fanatical but I am concerned. Luckily our local council is very good at recycling so all card and paper goes there, as does wood, metals, electrical items. They can even recycle plastics. I like the fact that companies like Arqadia place a high priority on managed, FSC sources, it's somethin...
