Even for those who are "crafting-challenged" October 29, 2008
You can do it! This book teaches you step by step how to use simple materials to make amazing frames for your home or for gifts. So many different styles and examples make it easy for all tastes to find something relevant for their home.
Great framing ideas October 19, 2008
What to do with a plain picture frame? Ever ask yourself that question? Or I have an old frame but want to spice it up? Another good question.
EMBELLISHED MEMORIES will solve those problems. Ms. Vargas begins her book with five reasons to make a picture frame and then talks about four things that you can look for in a frame.
There are 24 projects that step you through the process of creating the frame. Each has a materials list and then the step-by-step instructions for putting to together. There is a color photo of the finished item, complete with a photo in it!
A resources page will help you locate any of the materials you cannot find in your local area and there is a metric conversion chart from inches to millimeters and centimers and yards to meters.
Grab a copy and "get framing"!
