Darkgate Picture Framing And Home Crafts

A brilliant day when the the rain stopped and the sun shone. Llanarthne May Day fair was a great success. Thank you Jo from JD Pet Photography, great company and the gorgeous Chloe the Dalmatian.

Hi folks, I'm trying to find someone who can supply me with some small solid wooden hearts, suitable to go into a wedding guest book frame. I'm looking for a good quality and around 120-150 with one a liitle larger, please get in touch if you can help.

Two gorgeous images, the puffin is an original pastel and the owl is a photographic print. The frames are absolutely spot-on for colour and size, and I don't think they could look better.What do think?

All of the 1960'2 posters are framed in very narrow and very strong aluminium frames that don't get in the way of the image.They are available in different sizes and colours and not expensive.

Some more recent work I hadn't got time to post till now.you can see we get all sorts of work in , more to follow

Just 3 of a fabulous collection of 1960's psychodelic posters, including Captain Beefheart and Pink Floyd. New, (to me) aluminium frames,narrow, strong and not too expensive, they look magnificent.3 more done and will be here soon. The next batch to do is 9

Has anyone any experience dumping Barclay's Merchant Services and their card processing terminals, is there an alternative out there? I had my recent statement to find the bill had gone up by 66%. I am a little business and every charge has to be justified.Thanks in advance for your response.

by way of something different, this is an old advert from Good Housekeeping magazine, circa 1920 I think. I love the idea that the radioactive properties in the wate can make you look 10-30 years younger, Mmmm, don't know if it is the miracle they say it is.

I've just finished this magnificent oil, it's just a shame i can't shoiw the detail on the moulding, it is really great.

Could any one that likes the look of my work , give me a call, come over,have a coffee and see what I can do.You could probably all tell me how to use Facebook better.

Some really gentle water-colours brought in for re-framing.I believe they were painted in the Brecon Beacons.

More of Mrs. Paton's Impressionist prints of Paris, memories of home,I think.

It is hard to call framing work when we get such lovely pieces in. These are paintings by Leighton Moses, Sparrows on a Footpath sign, and one of his gorgeous dog.

Where has the year gone? So much to remember and so much to do! The Virginia Creeper is trying to encircle the house but now it is going to be a skeleton of a month ago. Next, 2 lovely local watercolours reframed into waxed oak frames and 3 of 13, prints of Paris,more happy memories.

A small selection of this week's finished work, a gorgeous counted cross stitch for a sapphire anniversary,thank you Emma Taylor. 3 impressionist prints to remind someone of home in Parisand a lovely watercolour of the Brecon Beacons

Pictures from the chaos of the shop, plus a small sample of the new frame mouldings

About time I got on with some more work, some done, loads more to follow

We lost a dear friend this week in a tragic car accident,someone who all who knew him will feel shocked and saddened by this sudden terrible loss. It makes me repeat the mantra I say to Paddy every time he goes out. ...Watch the road, don't speed. don't use your phone , adding watch your rear view mirror, take care and Good Luck. And the same goes to all of you.
