The vintage clothing king and queen of the Brooklyn Flea are making frames now. Larry and Amy of Jellyroll Vintage are also Framy. Got that?
I do. I ordered five, count ’em, five custom Framy frames from these guys before Christmas and I finally hung them all today. So exciting!
A little background here. Amy has 15 years of framing experience behind her. She’s pretty meticulous with her work. I found out when I took the back out of one of them to change the photo and saw the crafts(wo)manship behind it. The frames are all made by hand from scratch. They’ve got a distressed look going on with a wax finish. That’s where Larry comes in. He does the mitering, joining and finishing.
Ah, but it’s not just frames. This rad couple does some pretty cool things with mats. Howzabout recycled vintage fabric?
Prices are totally fair. You have artwork sitting in a closet? Just do it already!
BTW, if the above photo looks familiar, it’s this one.

My brother had those Empire Strikes Back sheets, lol.
Love a well made frame. Are they Framy-ing at the Flea, too?
They are not only Framy-ing at the flea, but I heard they just got in some fabulous 60’s mod dresses!
