The Fastframe Restoration Method

03/07/2016 by fastframe

The following is an example of how Fastframe Cheltenham can add an extra dimension to image restoration.

The original image had missing pieces, discolouration due the use of acidic tape on the back, spotting, fading and ageing.

While Standard restoration would fix the above problems, the image still lacked finesse and balance.

At Fastframe Cheltenham, we also enlarged the image to give relief to the standing figures, included a wall trim to create depth, and added carpet and wall texture.

Our customer was also delighted that we had fixed her fathers arm and made other personal touches to her treasured family photo.

How to preserve, frame and share your family heritage

31/12/2014 by fastframe

At Fastframe we are often asked how we can help preserve and share family heritage items with different family members.

A good example is my husbands old family home Certificate of Title.

As several family members wanted a copy of the certificate, we scanned the front and back, leaving it in its original condition, creases and all. We then reduced the image and printed both sides on a grey background. The prints were then framed in a style to suite the period, and glazed in Tru View AR Reflection Free amazing clarity glass which enhances the three-dimensional look.

The original certificate has been restored and kept safe away from sunlight. Now all family members can have their own piece of family history !
