User Comments about the Framing Techniques & Decorating Ideas
|
|
I was disappointed with this book. I guess I expected it to have more framing techniques and more about framing in general. It has some nice pictures but I was not impressed with the content.
Framing: Techniques & Decorating Ideas presents the collected wisdom of the Aaron Brothers, who have been custom framers since 1946. An excellent do-it-yourself guide. Chapters discuss the basics of framing, wall arrangements, photo frame vignettes, matting, custom framing, hanging artwork, tools of the trade and how to use them, and much more. Color photographs illustrate this detailed and candid "how-to" book on every page, expressly revealing the tips, tricks and techniques of professional-quality framing.
