Christopher Brougham from Framer Vs Framer

Framer vs Framer is offering all Neighbourly members 15% off all picture framing till Christmas day.

I get snowed under with work near Christmas so now's the time to start thinking about getting any sort of image beautifully framed. This applies to VOUCHERS also. A $100 voucher will only cost you $85. Message me through Neighbourly and I'll send you e-vouchers via email once paid online. (Redeemable within six months.)

I give family and friends loads of framed prints and without exception they are always some of the best and most unexpected gifts, especially art prints, portraits, degrees, and children's art. We are so used to viewing images only on screens. But to have them properly and carefully framed for future generations - they're always a crowd-pleaser.

If you're running out of time you can email me your images and I will print them at a professional lab FOR FREE (up to A4 size), and even custom frame them to your requirements over the phone.

Or call to make an appointment and choose exactly what you want and they will be ready for hiding under the tree. Either way - you'll get 15% off your framing of any image. And I'll wrap them beautifully for you too if you wish. If you're unsure what to frame, vouchers are the way to go.

Call: 9744405 or 021 784557

Dave Wild from Brooklyn:
I can highly recommend Christopher's work, he has done quite a few pictures for us over a number of years. Top quality work.

Picture Framing since 1992 - and every frame guaranteed to please.

* Discount excludes blockmounts, and glass or frame repairs.

We are on the hunt for New Zealand's most original, even legendary, Santas - can you help?? This will be someone that embodies the big guy with the white beard year round and who people in your neighbourhood often refer to as Santa.

Obviously, this person will also be the one that is called upon each year to don the red suit to go out and about posing for photos, handing out presents and just be an all-around nice charitable person.

If you know of someone, please leave us a comment with your details and how we can get in touch with your local Santa. COMMENT BELOW!
