22.01.2022 What a super special way to admire and present this piece! We have mounted this metal plate onto a custom selected coloured mat board allowing for the perfect amount of black border to be seen. It really showcase's the piece in the best way possible. We think this is the perfect frame selection with it's hard-wearing look and soft tones of black, to tell the story perfectly to match this little piece of history.... #kosnarspictureframing #customframing #metalplague #metalplate #bikehistory #memories #memorabilia #blackframe #SupportSmallBusiness #supportlocal #ascotvale #familybusiness

20.01.2022 Isolation activities! Jigsaw's not only create mind stimulation and a time to achieve what can be an overwhelming task when that box is open....but they can also create moments that can be shared as a family or as a couple.

It is guaranteed to be preserved for life, never to fall apart and able to be admired and enjoyed for years to come. ... #kosnarspictureframing #customframing #framer #jigsawframing #keepsakes #familybusiness #supportsmallbusiness #ascotvale #isolationart #isolationcreation

17.01.2022 "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live" Any Harry Potter fans out there? Check out this STUNNING Harry Potter jigsaw with SO MANY PIECES!!! Definitely a Covid lockdown piece, ha ha! Not only is this incredible jigsaw an achievement in itself but it is a reflection on those memories and the time that was taken to piece it altogether......one piece at a time.... We also created a personalised title plate for our customer in gold with the title "Hogwarts 2020" for the perfect reminder! We can custom make title plates in gold or silver, big or small, border or no border and in various different font styles. These are a perfect addition to make your piece look super professional as well as be part of the story of your items. We have very clever customers that's for sure!
