Arlington in April - SUCCESS!

Adorned Gifts had our first craft show yesterday. We participated in Arlington in April and we had such a great time! The weather was nice and warm and really brought the people out! We would have loved a little less wind but we managed with only a few casualties! LOL!


Thanks to everyone that came out to see us. We are already looking forward to our next craft show and we'll let you know when that is.


Don't forget - we can totally customize any frame just for you. We can add names, initials and match any decor or theme. Just e-mail us at adornedgifts@yahoo.com and let us know what you need!

Welcome to Adorned!

We are pleased to announce the launch of Adorned! We are a small business dedicated to making beautifully embellished frames and gifts. We are located in Memphis, Tennessee and gladly ship our items to you regardless of location. We currently specialize in beautiful, handcrafted photo frames, but are slowly adding more items to our product list. We would be glad to custom-make any item you can imagine. Feel free to call us with your ideas or questions on how we can make the perfect gift for you. 

Adorned owners, Buffy Morris and Paula Sloan are two crafty ladies who decided to put their artistic abilities to use by decorating frames for teacher and baby gifts and the ideas started flourishing. Adorned grew to become a small business venture between these two moms who wanted to use their creativity as an outlet and to see what possibilities lie ahead as they continue to build their friendship and their business. 

We are looking forward to our first event where we will have a booth at the Arlington in April on Saturday, April 25 from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM in beautiful Arlington, Tennessee. 

Our frames are solid wood frames; they are hand-painted and can be painted in any color you can imagine. We often add a beautiful piece of patterned paper to the front to give your frame a perfect, unique look. The edges of the frames are sanded, accents are added (embellishments) and frames are finished off with a clear top-coat to ensure your frame is protected and remains beautiful for years to come. The frames come with a wooden dowel to sit them on a table-top. We can also add a saw tooth hanger if you'd like to hang your frame on the wall. These frames are beautifully unique and we know you'll love every Adorned piece you choose. 

Please take a moment to check out a few pictures of frames we've made recently. Come back and visit often as we will be adding items regularly. 



These two sweet frames were made for sisters who shared a room. The complementary colors beautifully accent the colors in their shared room, but express each child's unique personality. These were some of the first frames sold by Adorned. The sisters were thrilled with their frames and have often asked for more for their friends and family. 
(Comparable frames available for $14 each.)


This black and white Mickey Mouse frame was made as a gift for grandparents after our family trip to Disney World. The wooden frame is painted black and has the unique mickey patterned paper on the front. With the year of our trip accented in a cute Mickey-shaped button on the front will make this trip one to remember for years to come. Accented with a red ribbon, this frame is beautifully displayed in the family room for guests to enjoy when they come for a visit.
(Comparable frames available for $12 each.)


This unique Christmas frame is beautifully decorated in a bright red with beautiful patterned "Happy Holidays" paper. The large Santa is a perfect accent to the frame making it a one of a kind piece. With a red ribbon, this frame makes a great gift for anyone during the Holiday Season. How cute this would be with a picture of a kiddo visiting with Santa Clause!
(Comparable frames available for $15 each.)

This adorable pink and green paisley frame was custom-made for a baby girl's first birthday! The cute "1" with the whimsical ribbon accent this frame beautifully and makes the perfect frame to display the birthday girl on her first birthday.
