I get all of my frames from Michael's Arts and Crafts for a dollar each (with the exception of larger frames which costs more money) I've done 4x6 & 5x7 so far. I've done most in horizontal, some in vertical! Paints are from Michael's as well as dimensional and embellishment stickers. I also get wooden letters or whatever I think fits with the personalized request. The basics I need to know are:
horizontal or vertical?
colors you want?
colors you cannot stand?
names/dates?
quotes or anything else?
FYI: It usually helps me with thinking of something to use if I know what the picture looks like! Or have a set theme in mind, even.
My frame orders are on a first come, first serve basis. I do NOT rearrange orders unless one needs to be done by a certain date then I will communicate with the other frame order client to notify them that I have one to complete first. I would appreciate a week's notice so I can get it shipped out on time. Due to school sometimes being hectic, I will communicate with a client to let them know if it has to be put on hold. I always finish things I start!
I'm also in the process of learning how to write in block and calligraphy so that way when I make frames and handwrite quotes, they look much better! I can do quotes in stickers but sometimes they look better handwritten!
Prices range from $10 to $20 - depending on the supplies I need. The price includes everything for: frame, paint, stickers/decor and shipment!
