I am a massive fan of most things from Past Times. It is one of mine and my boyfriends favourite shops and often we buy trinkets from there. We both love the old feel of things and the fact they are so well made and of late there is usually a sale on of some description too which helps!

I love photographs dotted around and about my home and was recently in Past Times looking for a new one. I only wanted something small and dainty for a small photograph of my family dog that recently passed away and this seemed ideal for me and not only was it light pink and heart shaped but it is currently on sale for £8.00 rather that its usual £10.00 (for a limited time only) and from instore and from the Past Time website (which is www.pasttimes.com.).

This quite simply is a rather small, very light pink and silver enamelled heart shaped frame that measures 8.2h x 7.9w and holds a photograph measuring 2.5 x 2.5. The frame although silver in colour is actually pewter in materials and then the heart itself is enamelled with silver embossting on it and a few, scatted cleared round crystals to give a wee bit of bling to the piece. The pink shell colour is really evenly enamelled on there, the crystals sparkle slighty and the silver pattern is really tidy, dainty and intricate. In the hole to the front of it there is a clear glass panel that isn't very thick and that's of course the window to your photograph! The back of the frame is secured on and simply flips open to pop your photograph in and then you secure it by sliding up two little black clips. This is simply a photograph frame that is meant to be put on something so it has a little rest to the back of the frame it simply leans on nicely and that is this photograph frame in a nutshell. Pretty to look at, weighty and it stands really well indeed and of course looks really beautiful quality considering where it comes from and not one bit tacky.

This comes gift boxed too as and as it is an exclusive design for Past Times comes in a yellow and green box simply with Past Times written on one corner of it and with white tissue paper inside.

It really is a nice quality and not one bit tacky, small photo frame, easy to dust and look after and it will serve me for years and I really like this one!
