Description
This folding wooden photo frame opens into two white hearts joined by a pair of small hinges, with a photograph on one side and a little seaside scene on the other. The left heart has a heart-shaped window for a favourite picture. The right heart frames a shallow alcove, where two tiny houses stand on a slim natural-toned base, one in soft sea green and one in deep blue, each topped with a pale roof. The white finish is gently distressed, so the grain shows through and the edges look softly weathered. It stands 13cm high and is 1.2cm deep.
As it opens out and stands on its own, it needs no wall or nail. Set it on a mantelpiece, a bedside table or a bookshelf, opened to whatever angle suits the spot, and the hearts sit side by side like a small keepsake display. The seaside theme suits a coastal-style living room, a guest bedroom or a sunny landing. As a gift, we think it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day present for Mum with a family photograph already in place, and a kind thank you for a teacher, holding a class picture or a snapshot from a school trip.
The frame is made from wood, whitewashed on the front and left plain on the back. Small turn clips on the back of the photo heart hold the backing in place, so you can slip a picture in or change it in a moment. The little houses keep their own alcove, so the seaside scene is there whatever photo you choose. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and avoid getting it wet. If you are giving it as a present, add the photograph before you wrap it, so it is ready to stand open the moment it is unwrapped.
