I like your wonky style, one print in frame wonky, the other in frame straight but frame wonky ;D
Seriously though, nice frame job on the Turin Scam, any idea who did the art? ;D

Furniture should never be placed directly in front of a radiator. It should ideally be at least two feet from any heat source. I know 'cos I read this daily.

I really liked the way the grey of the suede matched the tone on the print.

I could have paid a lot more, but as I've said before, the guidance on this forum helped me to decide what I wanted before I went in. The frame is an off silver as I thought it matched the background of the print a little.
Thanks for your comments!

I get my one off ghetto ghost back from the framers on monday...its in a white box frame and i bit the bullet and went for the non reflective museum glass, pricey but the framer reckons it will be as if there is no glass there! cant wait

Yeah sometimes its worth spending a lot on the frame, it really makes all the difference! Some of my frames were double the price of the print....i questioned my sanity at the time, but the results proved it was worth it

For more expensive prints, you should consider museum glass. Costly, but it has both anti-reflective and anti-UV light properties.
The suede-effect mount looks good, but that material can't be of conservation standards, can it?

Some very respectable looking gentleman (Bearing in mind the event was at Westminster school just behind Parliament)ssshhhh us with the fingers on his lips, felt like a naughty school boy, good night though and raised some good money.

I am going to do them separate, we want them to go along our hallway. We are thinking a thin black frame for each floated on a cream mat... but I am not sold on the idea yet. We are going to pick up some frame and mat samples tomorrow to see how things look. Post a pic when you get yours done... I would like to see the white frame!
