14.01.2022 I hope everyone is feeling ok!? These are very hard times at the moment, though these times can be a positive in lots of ways, we just have to find something to focus on..

How do you frame your memories? What kind of Frames do you have? Hardwood a composite? If you have an idea for any... woodwork projects, also, any frames can be made to suit your needs, feel free to contact me. . . . . . #hardwoodframes #artwork #framing #melbourneartists #melbourne #melbournewoodworker #lockdownwork #ethicallysourced #frameyourmemories See more
