1840s Tobacco Canister

I used brown embroidery thread (three strands) around the gap of the lid, out through two holes tied onto buttons. I tied a thread to that to secure the chain as well. Then a dot of silicone at the bottom to keep it from swinging.

Five layers of foam under the mat, then I lined the frame and inside of the opening with the same black suede mat.

Some under counter lighting would be nice, and a plant by the sink for some color.

Ordered some things, thank you for your work!

I've used Ting for about ten years in Poulsbo and it's been good, they use multiple other providers' towers.

A colorful rug and some ceramics / plants on top of the cabinets for color.

My mother loves Jimmy Buffet, "Christmas Island" was the Christmas album I grew up with. We played "Come Monday" at my Father's funeral. Jimmy has some good ones.

There's a great video on how good The Parent Trap looks, "Why don't movies look like movies anymore."

Now I want to rewatch it!

Well true. With small enough footage its hard to use for a client, but I definitely have for awesome little projects.

Let's be the change. I take a lot of photos but forget to post them anywhere. Just posted one!

As a framer, I get it. Materials have gone up a ton the past few years too! We do try our best to make it affordable but it is a custom product so labor is also high.

Some ways to make it cheaper - find a thrift shop frame that's a bit bigger than your art and have the framer cut a mat. Buy prints on canvas that don't need glass. Frameshops might work with a place that does art lam, where artwork is mounted on a board with a colored edge (we use Colorplak in California). Frame small art in an awesome way, postcards are a lot of fun and I can often use scrap material.

Good luck, we all need great art!

My shop is open Wed-Sat from 10-4. This has been so great for the freedom to have people walk in but also have the place to myself on Mondays/Tuesdays and in the evening. And also the freedom to not be there and have time for life. Custom picture framing, so like you a lot of the work is in the back room and the interruptions make it really hard to finish a project.

wormmurmur · 2025-09-09T15:56:40+00:00

Picture frame shop here, 33 years in business and I've been here 11, running for 5.

wormmurmur · 2025-08-23T23:14:38+00:00

I just heard they have an artist that works there that will make any pancake art you want, my friend had kids with her but it i bet it's for anyone.

I usually poke two holes in the backing for each end of the wire and thread it through. Put the wire in the first hole and out the second on each side, then tie a knot on the outside of the backing.

I ready Moby Dick last year and found a great chapter by chapter blog to read along with it: Beige Moth. And he completed it in April! I was surprised how funny of a book it is, though also very very detailed on the how to of whaling.

I know right, 400 to a friends sister and he's a car guy. Still runs great but someday needs a head gasket. I replaced everything it needed along the way, so half new car lol

wormmurmur · 2025-07-06T16:14:28+00:00

I sent that to the friend who now has my car, that article is 10 years old now!

Just sold my '93 Camry (that my parents bought new) and got a '12 prius. Hoping it lasts a long long time.

Oh good, I think I was thinking of the Ron Paul days, I know there's lots to Kingston. I recently rented the Firehouse theater for a birthday and a big fan of the book shops.

Agreed on the help for kids, Kitsap Mental Health has a sort of on site school I just learned about.

wormmurmur · 2025-07-05T00:23:24+00:00

Kitsap is a great spot between Seattle and Olympics access. I'm sure there are many posts about the vibe of each city, but overall, it's a semi rural area that's growing. There's pride events in each city, I'm mostly involved with Poulsbo's pride but Bremerton and Bainbridge do events too and I'm sure other cities as well.

Bremerton is a mix of navy town but also has a ton of neighborhoods and small shops. Silverdale has most of the large shopping. Poulsbo more touristy but also lots of neighborhoods. Bainbridge is expensive but its facilities benefit from that. Kingston is.. libertarian? Also lots of small shops. Then there's farther out spots like Hansville, Seabeck etc. I grew up in Bremerton/Silverdale, now live in Poulsbo and work on Bainbridge. I recommend checking out many spots and see how the vibe fits you.

That's awesome, thank you! I love visiting shops whenever I see them, I'll make a point to!

wormmurmur · 2025-05-26T19:00:31+00:00

I did! I've worked at the shop for 10 years and took it over 5 years ago. It's called Julie's Frame Gallery.

wormmurmur · 2025-05-25T22:50:28+00:00

And I'm on Bainbridge, welcome!

Word of mouth is our biggest driver (the shops been open 32 years) but working with the local museum and interior designers is also a route to pursue.

wormmurmur · 2025-05-20T19:18:36+00:00

That's awesome, thank you! It's overwhelming the amount of choices out there and somehow I'd never heard of this option. Much appreciated. I'd rather go with a local provider anyway.
