Have a good day!

Bought a few art pieces from Etsy that needs A) printing and B) framing. What’s the best place to get prints - what quality and paper do I print and where can I buy cheap ass frames?

I’ve found Myer to be a good source of cheap frames when there are sales on. The least expensive ones are still decent quality and have glass instead of Perspex. Others IKEA and Kmart are pretty safe choices.

That I am less sure of, I haven’t done this in a while. Officeworks would be a reasonably decent option to get them printed on the spot. They’re usually pretty helpful at the counter.

Next level would be something like Minuteman Press, bring the files in on a USB and they can talk you through the size and options (glossy/matte, borderless, paper weight etc.). Best option depends on if the art you purchased is photographic, illustrative etc.

If you want really high quality prints you’re gonna want to talk to a Fine Art Printer about getting a giclée (inkjet) print. This is the most expensive option but will always give the best results and they’ll get the best out of your purchase.

Aussie Frugal seems to have died. I’m just in there alerting when hygiene products are half price because (other than occasional art supplies and basic necessities) I don’t really buy anything

It’s all good. I think everyone else is also doing all the frugal tips already, so there’s not much new to contribute

A late and leisurely breakfast I think - a grazing platter of delicacies with a selection of teas please. AKA can’t decide.

Does anyone have any experience with changing owner’s corporations? It’s been two years since the townhouses on our block were moved in to, no AGMs or meetings, no responses to emails or phone messages.
