I saw someone post this print on the new acquisitions thread so I had to add it to my collection as well. Love this print. Just ordered one and requested a little Blackhawks/Stanley Cup flair to be added.bootstrut wrote:Wow everyone, your compliments are extremely flattering. Ana's had several sales thanks to you all and just finished adding remarques to those who opted for them! We're both grateful and excited to send them out to their new homes! This community is awesome!

Long time, no posts! Here are a few framed keys, although not of the Josh Keyes kind you may be disappointed to see...
Finished framing them today. They are held in place with thread on an off-white mount. The windowmount is a double, the top layer being the same off-white as the background, but it is a 2200micron thickness giving it a really cool deep beveled edge. The 3mm reveal is a dark grey colour to complement the keys. It has Larson Juhl "Clarity" glass in the frame due to its anti-reflective and colourless properties. The moulding is also Larson Juhl, from the Dresden range of mouldings
I like it, wish it was mine

Ya, that looks great!
Got this finished recently, thought I'd share since it's a bit different than I've seen others go with.
Avoided a mat to keep the cost down a bit and keep it simple. Thought it might look more like a certificate might have been framed, but not sure I was right about that. That savings helped with getting a better solid hardwood molding.

A little weekend project I just finished. It's also the first time I've cut 2 large mats myself so they are a tad bit rough (cutting a reverse bevel is a bitch):
Materials all from Frame Destination except for the Museum glass which is from Hobby Lobby.

A few I got framed recently
I matted over the white border, it looked too distracting IMO. The molding has silver on it, so it makes the metallics really pop.NEVER PAY VIA PAYPAL GIFT. NEVER PAY FRIENDS/FAMILY. PAY THE FEES YOURSELF, THE 3% IS WORTH IT TO NOT BE SCAMMED
