I have finished Houses of Hawk Run Hollow :) WHOOOOOOPEE!! I spent the last 1.5 hours framing it. I went to Hobby Lobby and picked out a frame today @ 50% off and I just LOVE the way it looks in the frame. I finished it up this afternoon but had to block it and get it ready for framing. It cost me a total of 18.71 to frame it. I am thrilled to be finished with it and I am thrilled with the outcome :) I couldn't wait to get a pic as I am so excited-it's dark here and I had to take the pic under artificial light-but I think you can see how it looks :) I'll take a better pic soon :)

What a great piece! Congrats on your finish, and what an economical frame finish!! I am impressed. I try to keep my frame costs as low as I can. Did you find a frame ready made to fit?? I have the village and christmas finished waiting to be framed, but I haven't looked for ready made frames, I was thinking my hubby was going to have to make them...
Absolutely LOVELY. Where are you going to hang this beauty? Doesn't a good deal make you want to do the happy dance.
Congratulatons to Kathy.
