Seven Dials-Picture framers (well, Poppy feamers!)
Discussion
Earlier this year, whilst lost, I came actoss a picture framers close to Seven Dials. In their window they had a few Tower of London Poppies in frames, along with a notice saying they can frame your own Poppy.
Now, I thought it must've been "Frame, Set and Match" but after telephoning them it turns out not to be.
Do any of you have local knowledge as to the name of this place?
I'm down this weekend and thought I'd take mine down. Especially as they seem to have a quick turn around.

Frame, Set, and Match is in Endell Street, Covent Garden, if you walk down Endell from High Holborn, it's on the right just after Shorts Gardens, or it was when I was driving a black cab, if you walk up from the junction of Bow Street/Long Acre it was on the left.
They had another branch near South Kensington station, either in Brompton Road, or Old Brompton Road, can't recall.

Yes. I think I know exactly where you mean. Except I can't remember. 
Was it the small gallery on the right as you head up one of the cobbled streets away from dials? If I can remember which theatre I was visiting I could probably work out which street it was.
That sounds right, I've even been on google street view but got more lost on that than I was when I saw the place!

Just very lucky. I rarely go to Covent Garden but a friend gave my children some tickets to see a magic show so I happened to be loitering outside that gallery as there's a sweat shop opposite. I just had a vague memory of seeing those poppies. Hope the end product is what you're hoping for.
