ABOUT US
The Weekend Framer is a small-scale framing business set up in a home-based workshop in the Warralily area of Armstrong Creek, just outside Geelong.

Shahan, the framer, makes beautiful, bespoke, timber frames for original paintings. Shahan began making frames for his artist wife as a way to reduce materials costs. The business has since grown to be able to offer framing to a small number of artist clients. As Shahan is an engineer professionally through the week, he has the patience and skill-set to make beautifully made frames. He always seeks perfection and takes his time to make sure each frame is made to the best possible standard. Recent purchases of professional framing equipment has allowed the business to develop further.

As the business is only small in scale, we are seeking new artist clients via invitation only' at this stage. See gallery below for examples of framing.

Please contact us here is you have any enquiries.
