We know now that it's not that vampires don't photograph (even in the 50s when cameras still worked via mirrors); it's that they don't photograph well.
Well then, they still wouldn't need picture frames, as what vampire is gonna frame a crappy picture?
If you'd never seen your vampire self in a mirror, how would you know it was a crappy picture?
And I'm sorry if my comment made anyone feel uncomfortable. I didn't realize it would be taken so generally.
Besides, maybe they're framing pictures of their prey -- a particularly tasty meal, perhaps.
sigh. I am going to be eaten by laundry. I better do the folding now, while the baby is asleep.
if the future Mr. Vortex (wherever the hell he is) has a family or cultural tradition of a money dance, I'll be uncomfortable with it, but I'll do it. I might draw the line at the pinning of money, though. How about a nice basket?
Can we just stuff it down the bosom of your dress?
At the wedding of a friend's sister, I danced with the sister for the dollar dance, and dropped 4 quarters, one by one, down the front of her dress.
That was probably the most tame thing that happened at that wedding, come to think of it.
I got my mom and her new husband a Waterford picture frame for their wedding present--perfect for the couple that already has just about everything since they're combining two houses into one.

I might have to dive in and find some change.

But I would argue that not all vampires would do this, hence a picture frame is not
always
a good gift for a vampire.

She better cross ND off first if that's her criteria.
