Custom Framing: Beyond the Basics

Our expertise in custom framing extends to crafting frames for canvas, jerseys, needlework, posters, paintings, artwork, and mirrors. With meticulous attention to detail, we ensure each piece is uniquely showcased.

The Cost of Custom Framing: A Worthwhile Investment

The cost of custom framing depends largely on the size and style of your desired frame, and any additional elements you'd like to include. Prices typically range from $8 to $200 per foot. For example, a simple 11x14 picture framing might cost between $30 to $60.

While custom framing might seem expensive, it's important to consider the craftsmanship and materials involved. The cost accounts for various elements like molding, picture matting, glass, and other materials. Moreover, each picture frame is unique and requires a distinct approach, adding to the overall cost.

Custom Framing Timeline

Crafting a custom frame usually takes 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the frame size, molding delivery, and matting. The timeline allows us to ensure that your framing meets our high standards.

The Art of Professional Picture Framing

To professionally frame a picture, we recommend adding matting around your artwork, using non-standard molding, and opting for high-quality glazing to protect your photo. Our expert team will guide you through these options and provide recommendations tailored to your needs.

Picture Frames: Creation to Installation

We craft our frames by meticulously cutting wood molding with a saw framing miter to fit your photo perfectly. The glass is also carefully cut using a Fletcher 3000 or a glass tool. For installation, we provide a comprehensive hanging kit, which includes a sawtooth hanger or D-ring with a wire.

Choosing the Right Frame Style and Color

When it comes to frame styles and colors, the choice depends largely on your personal taste. Modern style typically involves flat profile frames in basic black, white, or wood tones. Traditional framing, on the other hand, involves classic gold picture frames with design on the frame with a slight U shape design or scoop molding profile.

Glass vs. Acrylic Frames: The Verdict

Choosing between glass and acrylic frames depends on the size of the frame and its location. For frames smaller than 24 inches or in low traffic areas, we recommend real glass. However, for larger frames or those in high traffic areas, acrylic custom framing is the safer option due to its durability and similarity to glass in terms of clarity.
