Here are the very talented hands of Florence “Sis” Hamer as she spends the next two weeks hand sewing this beautiful Hmoung skirt from the mountains of Vietnam.
People from all over the Tri-state region are discovering how Sis can help them display their complicated fabric art.
Another OPRF Student Showcase in the Books
Well, another year has passed and all the top artists from Oak Park River Forest High School gathered again to receive their awards and scholarships. For us here at Frame Warehouse, it’s the happiest day of the year!
It seems that every year the art is more and more accomplished and every year the students amaze us by what they have created!!
Archival Sewing
Here we are hand sewing a beautiful Hermes silk scarf to a white silk mat.
Most frame shops would double side tape these down ruining the silk.
We are more concerned that everything we do is archival based and reversible on important silk art like this scarf. This scarf represents Monet’s garden at Giverny.
Fabric and Paper Art Framing
Customers returning from vacation in Mexico have been bringing in wonderful intricate paper folk art pieces.
We recommend hand sewing the art on to a fabric mat board. In this case the customer choose a corse woven green fabric mat that really makes the art stand out. Stop in and see why we are the Chicago areas preferred fabric and paper art framer.
