Picture Frames

Rhinestone picture frames in the Montaigne, Strass, Luminous, Fifth Avenue and Shell designs.

A frame is the embellished object that sits at eye level and gets picked up, so the real question is how much attention it should take from the photograph inside it. A busier setting suits a simple black-and-white print; a quieter one lets a color photograph lead. On a crowded shelf, one heavily set frame among plain ones reads better than several competing for the same glance.

Keep them off surfaces you clean with spray, which dulls settings over time. The same lines continue in vases & candleholders, so a frame and a votive can share a shelf and still look chosen rather than collected.
