Hanging Glass Frames , how do you style yours?

At Alcove one of our most popular interior items are our Hanging Glass Frames.   We stock them in five sizes and three colours and they're so versatile.  In the shop we have filled them with a section of different images which we hope will inspire your own imagination.  We have a few black and white photographs, a modern greetings card that made us chuckle and some art work.
I also wondered what a collection of vintage sewing needles would look like in a frame, as I loved the colours and vintage packaging.  As there is a little give between the panes of glass I was able to fit them in.

We just love hearing what our customers have planned for them and how they will hang them in their own home.  The ideas are often as diverse as the customers themselves and we hear some fabulous ideas, we also really love to see Customer's photos when they have filled them.

One customer purchased the extra large frames to display some beautiful paintings she picked up in Venice on holiday.  The glass frames don't detract from the beautiful painting and they can be popped straight in and hung.

One customer bought her vintage photograph into the shop to select the right size.  Weren't her parents a handsome pair?!

The beauty of these glass frames is that you just open the two panes of glass and pop the image in.  No need to get  mounts trimmed to size or worry about getting the frame size exactly right, they look equally good completely filled or with glass showing around the edge.

A simple piece of vintage crochet looks great all by itself.

Postcard size prints by Roo Abrook look fabulous in the smaller glass frames. Singularly or in pairs.
Our tiny glass frames can be spaced between other frames on a feature wall or hung in a cluster for effect.

Perfect for Instagram photos !
These are just a few of the hundreds of different ways these frames can be styled and enjoyed. 
Feeling inspired? What would you put in yours?!!
