THINK ABOUT IT
Your Holiday Home
You've made the cookies, addressed the cards, cleaned the menorah, and planned the party. Now it's time for the best part - decorating your home for the holidays. It’s easy to remember to trim the tree or light the candles, but what about your walls? Deck the halls this holiday season by using custom framing to add a festive touch. So put on some Christmas music, grab your favorite holiday drink, and get framing!
Give a Memorable Gift
‘Tis the season for gift-giving, and you may be wondering how you can come up with memorable gifts for everyone on your list. Custom framing is the answer! Framing is a unique gift that is from the heart and unlike anything else you'll give this year.
It’s All About the Kids
There are many benefits associated with creating art. It can be relaxing to paint, draw or color. Art allows your imagination to run wild and your inner child to emerge. But for kids, creating art can teach them so much.
Does A Frame Make A Difference?
The frameless look is popular, but is it appropriate for what you need? Does it protect your art or enhance your image? Take a look at our examples to see what a difference a frame makes.
Framing Collections
We all know someone who collects items like Beanie Babies, shot glasses, seashells, or wine corks. A collector's item is any object regarded as being of value or interest to a collector (not necessarily having monetary value or an antique). Why do we collect items? Is it because we hope to make a profit someday? Is it to create a legacy after we are gone? Is it for the thrill of the hunt or an emotional connection to the past?
Framing Textiles
Just because a sentimental item is made of fabric doesn’t mean it has to spend a lifetime in your closet. Textiles like autographed sports jerseys, handmade cross-stitched pieces, delicate embroidery, and heirloom clothing can be protected with custom framing. Fabric pieces make for rich visual displays so you can cherish your memories every day.

Honoring Our Heroes
What makes someone a hero? Courage? Strength? Heroes come in all sizes and shapes and are all around us. Firefighters, police officers, and soldiers selflessly perform their jobs without thinking about the danger involved. Maybe your grandpa was a war veteran, or your daughter is active military. Show them they will always be in your heart by transforming their picture into a framed display.
Frames As Fashion
Picture frames aren't often thought of as a fashion trend item, but they align closely with a time period's decor tastes. Art styles change over the centuries and are reflected in the era’s architecture, design, decor, fashion…and framing! Think back to the frames you have seen gracing everything from museum masterpieces to grandma’s family photos…each has a unique look in accordance to its era.
A Fresh Look For The Season
It's spring cleaning time! Time to clean the cobwebs and freshen up your space. Modernize your style with a few easy tweaks to your interior. New accent pieces and art showcasing popular materials can help give you a fresh look for the season. Refreshing a décor style can be as simple as a new coat of paint, a different pillow, or a new frame moulding.

Gifts from the Heart
The holidays will be here before we know it, and you want to buy meaningful gifts for the special people on your list. Gift cards and two-day shipping might be convenient, but custom framed gifts are treasured forever. What makes a gift memorable? When you are creating a unique framed project, you are giving your loved one a one-of-a-kind gift from the heart...something they wouldn't buy for themselves...something that evokes a smile every time they look at it. Now is the time to begin thinking about the unique memories, keepsakes, and treasures you want to frame for the holidays. Here's some ideas!
Conserve & Protect
Damage to your artwork can be scary!
Do you know what's really scary? Framing that damages your art! Inferior framing materials and exposure to destructive elements can fade, discolor, and damage your framed art. Framing isn't just about making your framed piece look good - it's about looking good forever! This Halloween let's avoid a framing scare by using the proper materials to conserve and protect your project.
Custom Framing Pop Quiz
How much do you know about design?
Taking a piece of art to a framer can seem overwhelming and complex. You may not know the right questions to ask or what to look for when the designer shows you choices. Here's a quiz to help sort it out.
Remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder...what matters most is what looks good to YOU!
When One Is Not Enough
Traditionally when hanging pictures on the wall, one picture would be hung by itself, and that was that. While a single piece of art can be inspiring and lovely to look at, sometimes you need your wall display to do more. Does it need to tell a story? Is it a conversation piece? Does it continue to capture your attention?
Ahhh…Vacation!

You work hard all year for your vacation, planning it carefully, counting down the days...and it's over before you know it.
