Indian Embroidered Textiles

I always enjoy framing Indian textiles. This ethnic style of textile is rich of colors, shiny beaded, beautiful hand-embroidery and complex patchwork patterns are all distinctive features of Indian textile. With a nice design frame, these textiles always making a beautiful wall hanging decor.

Today, I just complete another frame for my customer, Shangka. He just came back from his home country, India and he bought this textile to decorate his living hall. I design a simple contemporary design to match his existing home interior stlye.

I take what you dump..

Today I made another frame using wood that modified from an unwanted wooden box. I collected this pine wood box from an electronic factory in Bayan Lepas.

I dismantled the wooden box and cut it into smaller size to fit in my frame. After that I applied a coat of dark stain on it. The wooden grain turn up beautifully after that. Before encasing it, I engraved some wording with my engraving knife on it. ( to descripe the miniature sandstone that my customer brought from Combodia).

See, I am not only save some money..... but also play my part on recycling ...
