This type of framing also allows the framer to indulge their own creativity and cunning as they can produce unique and decoratively displayed exhibits.
Through clear explanation, demonstration and your own "hands on" practice, you will learn about general principles:
You will then learn how to produce a simple 3D Frame for an object by;
Cost includes all tools and materials supplied.
You will be provided with an object for framing. You will produce your own, professionally finished 3D Frame: it will be simple to remove the object provided and replace it with something of your own at a later stage.
