Synopsis: Split into three chapters, this book begins with Cardboard, Tin, Wire and Paper which explains the basics of picture framing: choosing mounts, using moldings, cutting glass, and fitting up a frame. Projects include a pretty Swirly Mirror and an unusual Bottle Cap Mirror Frame. Next is Fabric, Beads and Flowers, which offers a multitude of ways of decorating frames, such as a Pressed-Leaf Frame and a Padded Silk Picture Frame. Plaster, Clay and Mosaic, are more challenging media, but the end results are stunning. There are many projects to try, from a funky Geometric Clay Frame to a beautiful Mediterranean Mirror. With guidance on materials and equipment and over 30 projects to inspire, this is an indispensable book for craft enthusiasts everywhere.
