Segment 1:
Guest: Frankie Edwards Lee
Frankie Edwards-Lee, a native of San Francisco, CA, studied business at City College of SF. She has always been passionate about home interior and fine art. This passion drove her to start her own business.
In 1992, Edwards –Lee started Life Expressions, specializing in custom framing, home accessories and fine art sales. In it’s infancy, Life Expressions primarily showcased the work of her brother, artist Lumumba. Later in 1999, a friend introduced her to framing business. Sometime later, she changed the name to Framed By Frankie.
Her client list reads like a who’s who of Sacramento. The Sacramento Convention & Visitor Bureau, Faith Fellowship Community Church, Center for Father and Families, Underground Books and New Faze Development Company, just to name a few, have all purchased Frankie Edwards – Lee custom framing services.
In her spare time, she has served on Juneteetnth committee as Art Director.

Frankie Edwards – Lee was featured in the Sacramento Observer as one of the few Black women in the custom framing business.

THIRD SATURDAY DIVA MARKET
One of the most important things Diva Market founders, Frankie Edwards Lee and Daphne Burgess , strive to achieve with the market is bringing attention to local and small businesses. While to some, this may not seem like such a huge deal, when given careful thought, this is a truly meaningful undertaking as it provides area consumers with the opportunity to keep more of their dollars circulating in the community in which they live.
