Relief Prints

I highly recommend float framing relief prints. My pieces come with a natural raw edge that adds to the uniqueness and character of each piece. Float framing will allow for the raw edge to be visible to the viewer. If you prefer a crisp, clean edge when displaying art you purchase, please use a mat to achieve this look. No matter the route you take, please ensure that the artwork does not press directly against the glass—overtime the ink could adhere to the glass potentially ruining the print and you will likely lose the ability to change frames in the future.

If framing
through your local frame shop feel free to share these recommendations so they understand the nature of the piece better.

If you choose to frame yourself, look for a frame that comes with spacers or a mat to help give the art the needed space from the glass. I have also purchased spacers from my local frame shop to add the space needed to a frame that didn’t have a mat.

Another route some of my customers have gone is using a hanging frame. These frames, most of the time, use a magnetic top and bottom frame piece and hang from a string at the top. If this is your vibe, I’d aim to purchase a set that is the same width or ~.5 inch wider than your purchased piece!

Photography Prints

You will have more freedom here! I personally vibe with “the bigger the better” when hanging photography in my home. I love a 30x40 print with a 3 inch white border or 3 inch mat. I also think float framing a photo looks really nice in a deeper frame.

Jewelry

All of my pieces are made with gold vermeil. Vermeil is made by adding a thick layer of gold over a sterling silver, precious metal base making it hypoallergenic, giving it beauty and durability. To keep it looking its best it is recommended to avoid water, lotions and perfumes. This is honestly the case for all jewelry. Lotions and perfumes especially can speed the tarnishing due to some of the ingredients and chemicals it may contain. However as an avid water person—I literally wear mine 24/7—shower, pool, ocean, etc! Over quite some time it has has lost very little of its gold saturation color wise, but still looks and shines beautifully. I wouldn’t be worried to take it off anytime you plan to get wet.

Gently clean with a soft, dry cloth—never polish with harsh chemicals. Store it in a soft pouch or separate box to prevent scratches and tarnish.
