It’s ’Meet the Team’ part 4. It’s me! Gill... it’s very hard to write about myself. Unsurprisingly I do very little framing but I’m hugely talented at delegating. I’m usually found at the front counter, looking for great framing solutions with our customers. I chase up supplies, which is taking a lot longer these days, and make sure the team has everything they need to complete jobs on time. I do the regular Friday Sushi Run and make a mean coffee. I love working with all our artist friends and talking to visitors in @quietdoggallery. #gilltheboss #womenatwork #nelsonbusiness #greatteamwork #pictureframing #pictureframer #gallery #nelsontasman

What a fabulous vintage styled space. We framed the #tretchikoff prints and the Clint Eastwood retro film poster to work with the overall style. If you’re trying to create a certain vibe in your home let us know and we’ll come up with some ideas. #1960s #1970s #retrostyle #vintagedelights #pictureframing #interiordesign #stylishlook #happycustomer #theframingrooms

It’s ‘Meet the Team’ Part 3. Ange joined us

It’s ‘Meet the Team’ Part 3. Ange joined us around 4 years ago and quickly took over all the frame making duties. If there’s machinery & tools involved Ange will be at the front of the queue. She’s also an early bird so opens the shop every day. We love her endless positivity, sense of humour and home baked carrot cake. Sometimes we wonder if there’s anything she isn’t good at. Thanks for all you do Ange. #pictureframer #customframing #handmadenz #newzealandbusiness #smallbusinessnz #nelsonbusiness #teamworkwins #womeninbusiness

Part Two in the ‘Meet the Team’ Series. This

Part Two in the ‘Meet the Team’ Series. This is LaVerne who came to work for us on a temporary basis seven years ago. Luckily for us she chose to stay. Her talents are many and varied but we rely most on her amazing skills with fabrics, memorabilia and fragile works on paper. She is the best around when it comes to lacing cross-stitches. In fact, all tricky and time consuming jobs usually head in LaVerne’s direction. Collections of spoons, medals, antique tapestries and valuable heirlooms are some of LaVerne’s favourite challenges. She does have questionable tastes in music but one day we hope she’ll learn to love jazz, 70’s funk and reggae. #teamwork #pictureframing #pictureframer #nelsonbusiness #theframingrooms

The Framing Rooms is all about our fabulous team of skilled professionals. We thought you’d like to meet them. Here’s Steve who’s our newest team member. He moved from Auckland five months ago and has settled right in. Steve has been picture framing for 25 years so there’s nothing he doesn’t know. Most of his career has been spent at John Leech. He framed for the top Auckland galleries and auction houses so we are chuffed that he chose to work with us. Welcome to the team Steve! #pictureframer #pictureframing #nelsonframer #bespokeframing #customframing #meettheteam #nelsonbusiness #loveourteam #madebyhand #shoplocalnz #theframingrooms
