Remembering the life of Frank Bielec

Back in the day, Frank was an elementary school teacher. However, he soon became displeased with the educational system as he felt it focused too much on tests and not ‘experimental learning.’ He left the educational system and became a florist, creating beautiful arrangements for 20 years. Frank was also a very gifted artist and had a lot of his work displayed in art galleries. By 1989, he created his own business called Mosey ‘n Me with his wife, which specialized in cross-stitching.

Another thing fans may have not known about Frank is that he was a huge animal lover. He rescued about a dozen sugar gliders and practically any wildlife that came onto his property needing help. Everything he learned in life up to this point would come in handy for Trading Spaces later on. His artistic gift and creative eye for detail helped the show flourish. Rest in peace, Frank.
