Description
This stegosaurus photo frame is cut in the outline of a friendly dinosaur, with a long tail stretching out to one side, a smiling face on the other and a row of rounded plates rising along its back. The body is a soft pink with white spots, painted in a gentle watercolour style, and the plates are a pale yellow traced with fine white lines. A single circular window sits in the middle of the body and takes a 3.5 x 3.5in photograph, a lovely size for a first picture of a new arrival. The frame is made from MDF with white edges and is 1.9cm deep, so it sits neatly against the wall.
We think it belongs on a nursery wall, where its pastel pink and yellow sit happily alongside whites, soft greys and natural wood. It makes a thoughtful gift for new parents, ready for a scan picture, a first photograph home from hospital or a snap from the first family day out. Because the dinosaur suits any little one, it works as well for a baby's room now as it will for a toddler's room up to around three, and it is a charming way to mark those early months.
The back is a smooth light grey board with a sawtooth hanger along the top, so the frame hangs level on a single picture hook or nail with the dinosaur walking across the wall. Three turn tabs hold the backing in place: swing them aside, lift the board, set your photograph behind the window and turn them back. For care, dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp, as MDF does not take kindly to water. Hang it at eye level above a chest of drawers, and for a gift, slip a photograph in before wrapping so it is ready to go straight up on the wall.

Frequently Asked
What size photograph does this dinosaur frame hold?
It holds one 3.5 x 3.5in photograph behind a round window in the middle of the dinosaur's body, so a square print of that size fits neatly.
How does the stegosaurus photo frame hang on the wall?
A sawtooth hanger sits along the top of the back, so it hangs on a single picture hook or nail in its long, landscape position.
What is the frame made from?
The frame is made from MDF, printed in soft pink and pale yellow on the front, with white edges and a light grey back.
How do I put a photo in the frame?
Turn the three tabs on the back aside, lift out the backing board, place your photograph behind the window, then replace the board and turn the tabs back.
Is it a good gift for new parents?
We think so: it is a gentle, cheerful piece for a nursery wall, ready for a scan picture or a first photograph of the new arrival.
How should I look after it?
Dust it with a soft dry cloth now and then, and keep it away from damp and splashes, as MDF is best kept dry.
