We just bought our Christmas-Present-to-Ourselves... some photos from the awesome photographer Mike Stimpson.

Not everyone's cup of tea maybe, but we love him! (And, yes, I bought the one of the stormtrooper knitting!).
The photos themselves were not expensive - only about $6 each for approx 8x10's.
But now we have to think about framing them. We don't live anywhere near an Ikea (closest one is about 7 hours away). My husband says that American Frame is the least expensive option (over the internet).
Do you know of any other options?

Just signing on to pay some bills due on the 15th. Thought I'd drop by quickly. Thank you so much for the link. I am buying the Lego playing soccer characters - the things that all my boys love: Lego and soccer!! All in the same place!!

2nd favourite outlet is the charity shops. Take a tape measure to check for the size you need. You can pop out any existing picture and use double sided tape to anchor your new art. I've also bought Board Mounted art from consignment or charity shops using Modge Podge or watered down white kindergarten glue.
We've ordered stretcher boards on-line for canvas type art which is very inexpensive and easy to assemble with heavy duty stapes. Adding a frame with moulding strips was so frustrating DH ended endeavours. The stretcher art was hug without the frame.
