<p>[QUOTE="ElinorT, post: 2363979, member: 15643"]Hello all, </p><p>I had a friend though he has passed away now but he said that if you have a busy painting, then you need a plain frame, or vice versa, however, I have a couple of bucolic scenes which came in small and very plain frames but they were quite damaged but someone painting them and all the detail is now missing, I am loathed to strip them due to it being time consuming though they are a pair.. I bought a lot of paintings from a local auction some 18 months ago in various states of repair- it was just a shopping spree. Anyhow, one frame fits one of my paintings perfectly and I always thought it looked beautiful, the only trouble is I have just finished 'ameteurly tidying up' of the other painting and am struggling to find a suitable frame... to be honest, witht he original frames, one fitted, the other was held in situ with nails and ill fitting so would ideally need a slip making to be perfect.</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you think of this?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
