I've said it before...art is such a personal thing, and gallery shows and awards are just not where its at for me... but there is NOTHING I like better than knowing that my art is part of the history of such a beautiful new family. I loved seeing this more than I can say. Don't be surprised if I turn up ringing your doorbell and asking for the grand tour. Elizabeth awwww elizabeth, i was going to send you an email with all the pictures, guess you beat me to it. i know i've said it a million times but thank you, thank you for creating such beautiful images, your art will truly be a treasure to us the rest of our lives. ps... gerry and i would looooooove to see you next time you are in the nyc area.... xoxo

thank you....thank you.... everyone!!! you're all so sweet to say such nice things

these are amazing in person! they're metal prints.... they are printed on brushed aluminum

this is a wrapped canvas in the master bathroom, loved the way this came out

Standard photo prints in the entry way and living room

these are small little frames (approx 5") in our guest bathroom, it's quite dark in there so the picture didn't come out so great here's a better picture of them

Just wanted to share what we did with our wedding pictures..... I'm fortunate enough to work at a photography studio and was able to go really crazy with all our prints we tried to keep the bulk of everything in our bedroom, didn't want the whole house to look like a shrine to us, lol.... it sure is difficult though, so many gorgeous images so hard not to put them all up all of these were printed on watercolor paper, edges were then torn and the print was float mounted in the frame. the pictures don't do it justice.

amy, you have soooo many amazing details!!! everything is going to be FABULOUS! can't wait to see pics =)

woooooow!!!!! gorgeous!

Quote: Originally Posted by lolo thank you so much for the info.. how big were your shells?? were they hard to bring down? how did you bring your sand in the frame home? did it get destroyed? thanks again!! my shells are 7" Didn't have any mishaps because we bought 3 foot lockers and put all the delicate things in there with bubble wrap. On our way back I held the frame upright in a small shopping bag and kept it at my feet the whole flight, lol. It got home perfectly.

I have been trying to find these and I found a few online but I am not sure what size they need to be in order to hold enough sand in them. Thanks Mine are 7" I bought them at a local wholesale decor store.... You can try this website though: PEARLIZED NAUTILUS (6-7")

I just tried to do a search and cant find any I would love to put something like that on my cake table thanks for you inspiration! thanks! I got them at target, they were originally black and I painted them the tiffany blue color.
