Frames that can be found

Name	Japanese name	Where to find
Shellfish	シェルフィッシュ	Inspect the merchant's cart in Home World's Arni for this one.
Tea for Three	ティーフォースリー	Found in Termina (Home World). From the entrance of Termina, simply head in a straight line up all the stairs without taking any detours to the left or right. You should now be in an area with a statue (which is in the process of being polished) in between two buildings. From here, search around the building to the left of the statue without heading inside using the O button. There is a person you can't see, but can talk to, and they'll give you this frame if you manage to find them.
