Progress III
The frame is now complete.
The next step is to cut the card and snaps to a size and shape that will fit all of the slots.

Progress II
The snaps have arrived from Photobox and concealed (the project is being conducted in secret). They look pretty good.
Two sheets of black mounting card have been bought from HobbyCraft.
The backing (hardboard) has been recut to fill the mirror slot, during which it was noted that one of the long sides is bowed by about 0.5 cm, the other long side less so. This means that each of the slots is a slightly different size and shape. That is unfortunate, but so it goes. The backing will be painted black to de-emphasize any unsightly gaps.
Note to self: in the next batch of snaps, include some flowers - the anemones and christmas cactus spring to mind. And some sunflowers.
And maybe a set of Mondrian homages, so that I can have an exhibition of those sometimes. And who was that chap who photographed trains at great length. I think he had a middle initial "O".

Progress
Buying an A3 printer didn't work out, so the job has gone to Photobox. 20 12x10 prints ordered today.
I have removed the glass from the frame and will cut the backing so that it fits where the glass was.
Tomorrow I plan to buy some black card to use for mounting the snaps.
The subjects approximate to:
1 Floyd album cover
2 Mondrians and a PM assemblage
1 Winifred Nicholson
4 Kevins (the cat)
3 family portraits
2 Green Teds
1 Else Bing
1 Fonssagrives (sp?)
1 greetings card
The Feet, in 2 halves
