I purchased 4 of these, and they all turned out great. Having kids w/different names, makes the personalization a wonderful tool. Seeing the kids through the years is amazing. What a wonderful frame to have. Kids change so quickly right before our eyes, this gives you a chance to remember those looks. The kids enjoy looking back as well. GREAT GIFT!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Schoolhouse Frames:

I haven't had a chance to put photos in but I know it'll look really nice on the wall. I guess I'd like glass over the photos but, then again, glass might make the entire frame too heavy. I'm glad I got three of them, one for each of my three children.

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Schoolhouse Frames:

I bought this first 9+ years ago with my daughter and then my son 4 yrs later and now i'm here to buy a third for our youngest, they are great! Its hard to find a personalized school colage like frame of such great quality! My only complaints are that the plasic picture covers are sooo thin that when you open the frame to put in the pictures, all the covers fall out and you have to put each one back in place. Also, if the frame would be bigger to accomadate full wallet sized photoes, that would be WONDERFUL as you have to trim down your pictures which often it seems the photographer gets close ups so you almost have only a face in the frame which looks a little ackward.

Sturdy and heavy, well made.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Schoolhouse Frames:

Very nice frame. A bit on the heavy side but made well. Pictures are covered by a piece of clear plastic that moves easily when touched but stays in place otherwise. Overall, a very nice frame and fun to see the changes in your child!

from Houston, TX on 8/14/2007

Pros:

Attractive Design, Durable, Easy to Use

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Schoolhouse Frames:

I bought one of these frames for my first daughter when she was in kindergarten. Since then I bought one for my second daughter and for all three of my nieces as "starting school" gifts. I just purchased one for my youngest niece who is entering kindergarten this year. Ironically, as she begins school, my first daughter is going to be a senior, so one frame will be filled and one just beginning. They are a wonderful product -- a great way to show off school pictures, and nice to have them personalized.

I'm so glad you still offer this product--It is Super--especially when it has all their pictures in it from K to 12!! Thanks!
