FAQ



Q: What should I frame?
A: Do you have photographs, artwork or memorabilia you would like to protect and display? Do you have a room that needs something special? Do you need a gift for someone who enjoys beautiful things? If you answer yes to any of these questions, you have something to frame.



Q: What is the consultation like?

A: The consultation is as individual as you are. You can come in knowing exactly what you want and just point it out, or with no set notions. Either way, we will sit down with you and discuss what will look good in your home, and what will show your art to its best advantage. There will be several decisions to make, such as how to mount the art, whether and how to mat, what type of glass, and, of course, the frame itself. Our design staff will help you with each of these decisions. Our object is to create a masterpiece especially suited for you and your space.



Q: What should I bring to the consultation?

A: Bring the item you wish to have framed, as well as any ideas you have. Paint colors or fabric swatches are always helpful. If the framed piece will go in a specific spot, you might want to measure the wall area you have. A photo of you space helps us in designing a unique piece for you.



Q: Can I frame something other than art?

A: Absolutely! We can frame almost any object you would like to display. Needlework, Sports Shirts, Sea Shells, Hockey Sticks, Golf Balls and all sorts of collections are some of the items we have framed. Please visit our online gallery to see examples of what we've done. (Coming Soon!)
