I'm a mini-collector; I collect 3-4 things of a kind, and that's it.

I love old frames. Even damaged ones.


This frame was made from two damaged frames and hand-painted.


I found this frame, destined for the trash, and rescued it. It was perfect for the antique lace samples.
 

I also decorate with them. This changes once in a while.

    I love this side of you Colette. I think you’ve inspired me to look at frames in a new light

    I love the idea of mixing old frames to make new - what a brilliant idea! And I'm with you on the collecting - I have a variety of things, but usually no more than about 3 of something. Edinburgh has some great junk and curio shops!
