We do like #229. :) It definitely has the style that we are going for.
However, we would prefer it if the edge detailing around the outside of the frame were more inset or connecting so that you don't see the ends of each piece. Not sure if that makes sense so please let us know if you need any further clarification.
#332 - we're not in love with the bird, but do see how it would incorporate. When I look at it, I think of a delivery or carrier service. Keep that design on hand in case one of those CHs comes along. :)
#333 - now that's more like it! the frame looks so much cleaner. THANK YOU!! continue to play around with frames - something more elegant and feminine, but not too busy. The way it is feels very masculine, but you're on the right track. :)
