Cortland Picture Frame Co. Hosts Annual Holiday Open House & Scarf Tying Fashion Show

This year’s Holiday Open House at Cortland Picture Frame Co. will be held on Thursday evening, November 17 from 5:30 to 8:30. The open house will include a fashion show at 7:00pm featuring their extensive selection of scarves and will demonstrate a number of knot tying techniques with instructions. There are several new lines of earrings and jewelry that coordinate beautifully with the scarves as well as wildly colorful socks and texting mittens all very reasonably priced for great gifts.

The shop is filled with delights from antiques and locally made fine crafts to a colorful selection of gifts around the world. Vicky has been searching all year for unusual finds at auctions such as ironstone, transfer ware, depression glass, and unusual candlesticks for your holiday table.

Cortland Picture Frame Co. has been featuring “repurposed” things for several years including architectural salvage; recycled silk saris; jewelry from typewriter keys, antique buttons, silver spoons and bullet casings; and metal signs recycled into birds and animals. They also have an always changing collection of reasonably priced vintage and antique furniture.

The GARDEN ROOM is filled with interesting containers, pedestals, baskets from Ghana, and bulbs for forcing. Don Hull has brought in a new selection of bonsai jade plants in his handmade stoneware pots, and who knows what they will find before you get here.

Although they love antiques and gifts, custom framing is still their main job, and Cortland Picture Frame Co. is the perfect solution for getting anything framed you could imagine in a frame. Shadow boxes and needlework are their specialty, and they have a fabulous collection of moulding to choose from along with antique and vintage frames. They have 20 years of experience working with archival materials and helping you create something you can enjoy for many years. They also have a slide show of their work where you can get ideas of what they can do with whatever you have.

Cortland Picture Frame Co. is now on FACEBOOK where you can see nearly everything they carry in the store and get updates as new merchandise arrives.

Please visit them at 9 N. Main Street, Cortland, NY 13045 (607) 756-6499. They are open Wednesday-Friday from 10am-5:30pm and Saturday from 10am-3pm.
