Cleaning acrylic and glass
Acrylic and glass surfaces can scratch easily if cleaned incorrectly. Please avoid all chemical cleaners, including glass sprays, even those labelled organic, environmentally friendly, or non scented.
If cleaning is necessary:
- Lightly spray a small amount of ammonia free cleaner onto a lint free cloth – never directly onto the artwork.
- Apply gentle pressure only.
- Rinse the cloth with clean water.
- Dry by softly blotting with a clean, damp cloth.
Beehive hangers – important handling notes
Your framed artwork is fitted with Beehive Hangers, chosen for their security, precision, and clean wall presentation.
Because these hangers include small metal pins, frames can scratch if stacked together. Extra care should be taken when moving or removing artwork.
If you plan to take your artwork down or rehang it, please follow the recommended removal and hanging method provided by Beehive to avoid damage.
A legacy worth protecting
Your artwork is more than decoration. It is a tangible reminder of love, connection, and this chapter of your life. With thoughtful care, these pieces will grow in meaning over time and become part of your family’s story.
Every newborn photography album, every family photography wall print, and every maternity photography framed portrait holds within it a moment that can never be repeated. These are not simply photographs – they are the chapters of your family’s story, made tangible. As your children grow, these pieces become the things they reach for, the images they pause at, the heirlooms they will one day pass on.
If you ever have questions about care, placement, or adding to your collection, I am always here to help.
