Just contact us :-) 



There are a ton of beautiful, handmade pieces in this shop, but for my favorite I decided to go with this adorable picture frame. It screams "School" to me. It's a bright yellow frame with a school bus on it with a tree, and for the perfect finishing touch she added a few crayons, which is so cute! 


"Our Cheerful HANDmade "Raise Your Hand" Picture Frame would be good to display school photos of your child. It would also be good for classroom decor, a graduation gift, a back to school teacher gift, a teacher appreciation gift, or end of the year gift. This button photo frame would be good for graduating seniors for those special senior photos or a person heading off to college so they can carry a special memory from home with them. Handmade using a repurposed frame, wooden bus and green tree cutouts, 3 Crayola crayons, and apple scrapbook paper displayed in the 3.5 x 3.5 inch photo opening. Other careers can be highlighted..such as nurses, doctors, vets, engineers, etc. Can be customized and personalized to your interests."
