I know you have them, we all do! Those usually horribly lit images of you and your friends making the silliest of faces in a photo booth at the beach, at Chuck E Cheese or any one of those crazy places that has a classic photo booths!

For as long as I could remember, I have always wondered what exactly are you supposed to do with those long strips of pictures? I never saw a frame that fit them, they were too big for most albums and they always wound up in books where they were eventually lost.

But now there is a beautiful answer!

The owner of Whispering Willow contacted me and as soon as I visited her site I fell in love. Her stained glass frames are absolutely stunning, they are handcrafted and she has a line specifically made for photo booth pictures! The frame above features a stunning red stained glass with ornamental accents and 4 strip holders!

So, what do you think? Do you love the idea or what?!?!?

The owner of Whispering Willow ( and I love that name too!) has kindly offered one for a giveaway to our readers. I have this frame here and yes, I had to open it to see the quality -- and it is GORGEOUS!!
