I am doing this at the moment. I have almost completed the first one..the single blue wren
I was initally going to get it framed so both are exactly as shown above, one picture, so black frame and mat to separate them.
Now I am thinking I should do them separately.
It is cheaper to do them as one ( a big consideration) but at the same time, means I can't stagger them on the wall, i.e hang them on the same wall but put one lower down the other.
I'd go seperate barb. They are lovely by the way, and I think they would look even better if they were staggered down the wall.
2022 is yet another year of the UFO!!
Great Wall of China,
Peacocks and Pheasants,
Birds of a feather,
Hardanger Table runner,
TW Peacock Tapestry,
Milennium Sampler,
Yes, they are all STILL in progress!
I guess it may cost a bit more to frame seperately but I think they would look even better in seperate frames. Will you be framing them yourself as if you do I don't suppose it will cost much more Lovely pictures
okay, separate and staggered it is then. Now I have to remark the hallway wall for the hooks!
mostly, i get mine framed professionally, i have a deal with the local framer, it is a wholesaler plus I get extra discount. he's done 9 for me now. I only get the bigger ones done by him. Others i use the hoop frames or a photoframe if it's a small piece.
well, havng discussed it with a friend and considering wall space is running out and cost, i decided that they will stay together in one picture. It is cheaper as well and think it looks better.
One of them is completely finished. That helped make the decsion seeing it separately.
I am thinking this looks better than the black now but can't decide. Not a cheap mistake to be making and I have to finish the second one anyway. I dont know what to do now with the framing
I think the single frames don't leave enough room around the edge (although I suppose that a slightly bigger frame would take care of it), and the double frame is both more 'roomy' and unusual.
Framing is expensive, but consider how much time you spend on the design, as well as how long you are going to enjoy it. Works out to not much per year.
