Introduction to Framing

PROFESSIONAL FRAMING

We promise excellent service, artistic input, professional staff, competitive pricing, and the best framing experience that exceeds your expectations.  Our full range of services and in-house production allows us to give you a quick turnaround and a superior product.

HUGE SELECTIONS

We have thousands of moulding samples and mats from the most reputable manufacturers in the industry as well as a large stock of museum and conservation glazing.  We can put together the perfect frame for you.

CONSERVATION FRAMING

Because we truly care about the longevity of your piece we have the materials and preservation methods to keep your artwork looking brand new.

PRICING QUESTIONS

If you are new to custom framing, sometimes there can be some sticker shock. We are building custom furniture for your walls after all!  We understand this concern and will work with you to find a frame that fits your budget.  Prices start around $80 for a basic custom frame.  The US national average for a custom frame is around $225.  What about those 50% off sales you get every week in the mail?  Chances are, our regular price is the same as their specials.  We invite you to bring in any quote from Michaels Custom Framing, or any other picture frame shop to compare. 

CUSTOM AND PRECUT MATS

Our state of the art computerized mat cutter is more than just a fun toy!  We have the ability to custom cut any mat shape you want! Letter cutouts, shapes, v-grooves galore, special designs and more!  We can also “deboss” the mat for an elegant, subtle look you can’t get at many frame shops.

FINE ART REPRODUCTIONS

We offer exciting ways of preserving and displaying fine art prints including mural and standout mounts and floating deckled edge framing.  You have to see it to believe it! Learn more about these services »

MOUNTING

Every piece needs to be treated special and mounted in a different way – photos, artwork, needlework, fabric – you name it! We have both a clamshell and vacuum press to get the best results for your image.  Our combination of equipment and our giant 50″x 70″ press assures we can tackle most any project you throw our way!

LAMINATION

We can laminate up to 24″ wide in matte or gloss finish.  This is a great way to add pop to your image, serve as a glass replacement, UV protect, and waterproof an image or poster.

CUSTOM MIRRORS | CORK | MAGNETS | CHALKBOARDS

Looking for a custom size mirror with a frame of your choice?  Give us a call or stop on over.  We have hundreds of options and can manufacture a beautiful custom mirror for you right in our frame shop.

GLASSLESS FLOATING DISPLAY

This is an alternative but incredibly unique and gorgeous way to display a fine art print. First, we print your image on a thick, velvet fine art paper.  Then we spray coat it with a special waterproof and UV resistant coating.  Finally we float it in a special moulding (available in several different colors).  No glass needed!  See our studio for examples.

STAMPS | COIN | MEDALS | MINI PRINTS

Have something small you want to show off in a big way?  Stamps, coins, art – we can even print small fine art “trading cards” which is all the rage right now.  No job too big or too small.

SHADOWBOX | NEEDLEWORK | FABRICS | MEMORABILIA

Display your precious memories with a safe and UV protected shadowbox or floating object mount in a frame, like this image here.  The possibilities are as endless as they are exciting!
