Description
This pink wooden photo frame marks a first holy communion, with the words "My First Holy Communion" running across a pale banner along the top. It holds a 6 x 4in portrait photograph in a single rectangular opening, with no card mount around the picture. Soft pink paper surrounds it, printed with little illustrations of a chalice, a church with its spire, a loaf of bread, young trees, hearts and small crosses in quiet pastel tones. Beneath the photograph runs a short rhyming prayer: "May you live and grow with kindness and grace and know in your heart courage and faith." The frame measures 21.5cm tall, 16.5cm wide and 1.5cm deep, with crisp white edges.
It stands on its own easel strut, so it needs no wall and no nails, and sits on a bookshelf, a bedside table, a dressing table or a mantelpiece. A favourite picture from the church, the family gathering afterwards or a portrait in communion clothes settles in nicely, and the prayer keeps the meaning of the day close at hand. We think it makes a thoughtful communion gift from a godparent, a grandparent or a family friend, a keepsake that stays on display long after the day has passed.
The frame is wood wrapped in printed paper, which gives it a smooth, soft finish. The back is a black textured panel held in place by four turn clips, with the strut fitted down the centre. To change the photograph, turn the clips, lift the back away, set your picture in place and close it up again. Care is simple: dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water and damp, as a paper wrapped finish is best kept dry. For gifting, slip a favourite photograph inside before you wrap it, so it is ready to stand on a shelf the moment it is opened.
