peer agreement (net): +1fabric (covered) memo board Explanation: I can't see children making the photo frame version, so it has to be this kind of pele-mele.

multiple photo frame Explanation: cf. Robert + Collins or any decent dictionary BTW, I think there is a typo in your source text — and pretty sure that should be 'vide poche'! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2009-06-18 12:17:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think it is highly likely to be the photo-frame variety, given the 'porte-photo' just before it — and the fact that here it only involves decorating these items (hence, not necessarily making them from scratch!) My conviction is all the stronger because my neighbour's little son has just brought one of these home from school! |
