Custom Framing
You don't need to know what you want. That's our job.
Bring us the art, photograph, needlework, weird object, family treasure or thing-you're-not-even-sure-can-be-framed. We'll help you figure out what makes it look great, what keeps it safe, and what makes sense for your space and your budget.
We've been doing this for a long time. We know when to keep things quiet, when to add color, when to break out the good stuff — and when the artwork needs us to get out of its way.
Behind all the creative stuff is the less glamorous part we're pretty serious about: proper preservation. We use conservation-quality materials and framing methods designed to protect your pieces from light, environmental damage and materials that can cause deterioration over time. Our standards come from decades of hands-on experience, continuing education and the expertise of people who work in art materials and conservation.
Great design on the outside. The right stuff on the inside.
How we make the magic happen
Matting
We call her Matty and she is a Wizard 9000z Zero Waste mat cutter. She’ll cut just about anything. Squares and rectangles are old hat for this girl. Circles, ovals, no problem. Need a multiple opening collage? Shaped corners? Shaped opening? She can do it all and then some.
Frames
We only use the finest materials for our customers!
Hardwood mouldings from Vermont Hardwoods in Chester, VT
Closed corner frames from the Chester Frame Company in Madison, CT
Oval frames from InLine Ovals and Presto
Roma mouldings hand crafted in Italy
Sustainability
We care about the environment and our impact in everything we do.
All Larson Juhl mouldings and Artique matboards are FSC and PEFC certified to be from sustainably managed forests
We use FSC certified mouldings from Fotiou including their Jane Seymour Moulding Collection
We utilize Larson Juhl’s U.S. manufacturing facility in Wisconsin– a FSC Certified manufacturing facility. All wood waste is sent to a power generating facility to be converted into fuel. All saw dust is sent to local farms for animal bedding and mulch for fields.
” They are the best place I have found so far to frame my wife’s cross stitch and needle point original art works. After hundreds of hours on a piece I want it finished off with the level of care it deserves and they deliver.
Properly stretching textile artwork is a gift and they have a great eye for enhancing a piece with the proper frame and mat colors.
Absolutely beautiful workmanship!!”
