From the Framer's Table

I would like to welcome you to my blog for Cornerstone Custom Picture Framing and Gallery. As a framer and gallery owner I get to see such interesting artwork everyday, and would love this chance to share some of it with you. Also, I hope this will bring awareness to the art and craft of the framing process itself and give you ideas of how to frame your own special artwork and memorabilia.

A Grandparent's Gift

I had a couple come in the shop recently to frame a picture of their granddaughter, to be given as a gift to the new parents. This is not really out of the ordinary in itself, but I was really touched by the effort and care they had put into collecting the little footprints and handprints of their grandaughter. They were just totally in love with this new baby girl and it showed! They wanted to get a plaque made with the name and details of the baby's birth on it, and after much discussion the grandmother decided to handwrite the information instead, and i think turned out perfect this way. One day, long after these grandparents are gone, this family will have a beautiful keepsake reminding them everyday of how much they all are loved!
