This is a wonderful idea -- an organized way of showing one's growth through the years (as divided by age, not school year). The instructions for putting it all together were simple to follow; the frame was made of solid wood and finished smoothly. I can tell a lot of thought when into how to produce this piece: little touches like including pre-fastened hanging wire (rather than little clips that are on most store-bought frames); using Plexiglas rather than glass (for a frame this size, glass would have made it perhaps too heavy to mount on the wall); all in all, a nice and beautifully presented memory for everyone in the family to enjoy. Thank you!
