     Open Studios Tour with Mandy Allen      
Saturday and Sunday, October 19th and 20th 11am-5pm

October is the start of the holiday season and while we begin to look ahead to the festivities, here's one more to remember: once again, A Framer's Touch is happy to be participating in the Washington County Open Studios Tour. The tour is a county-wide, volunteer-run exploration of local artists and how they create their work.

The event is free!


Guest Artist
This year we will be hosting jewelry artist Mandy Allen  in our store. Mandy's specialty is anodized aluminum, a process which allows her to dye the metal into whatever vibrant colors she desires. The result is colorful, lightweight, and uniquely fun jewelry pieces.


We have a selection of Mandy's work in the store already, and you can stop in to chat with her and take a look at her process during the tour. Examples of Mandy's jewelry can be found on our website.


You can pick up a tour catalog from our store, or go online to view Mandy's artist profile on the official tour website here.



Don't forget! AFT will be participating in the Forest Grove business trick-or-treat event on Halloween night, from 5-6pm!




I can't confirm cobwebs, but Halloween spirit is certainly collecting around the corners here. You'll find autumnal decor and creepy crawlies amongst our usual wares; but our feature item comes in three great colors and is fit to grace your home in more than one season.

Day of the Dead Skull Ornaments

Use to celebrate Dia de Muertos itself, spookify your house for Halloween, and add some pizazz to your Christmas tree.
