For DD's dedication we were given a set of three photo frames that hang vertically down the wall, joined by like a long really thick hanging ribbon. With a big bow at the top and long pieces of ribbon hanging down from the bottom frame. In the most awful baby green poo colour I have ever seen

I love the frames, hate the ribbon.

Would it be bad form to cut/remove the ribbon and just hang the three frames as a set? The giver would be bound to see it sooner or later as they do come over every now and then. Would you be offended if you saw someone had done that to a gift you gave them?

And I would be putting them still vertically down the wall/one under the other so I couldn't say they wouldn't have fit.....
