Picture frames come in an array of styles and materials, each adding a unique touch to your treasured memories. Classic wooden frames exude warmth and timeless elegance, perfect for family portraits or vintage photos. Sleek metal frames, often in silver or gold finishes, offer a modern and minimalist appeal, ideal for contemporary artwork or professional spaces. Acrylic and plastic frames provide a lightweight and versatile option, often used for playful or casual displays. Floating frames give the illusion that the picture is suspended within the frame, adding a sophisticated, gallery-like effect. Shadow boxes, with their depth, are perfect for displaying three-dimensional items like medals or keepsakes. Each type of frame not only protects your photos but also enhances the aesthetic of your space.

What Kind of Options do we Offer?
Standard - As the name suggests, this is the most common type of picture frame. It's usually made from a combination of wood and glass and has a simple, classic design that works well with any decor style.
Gallery - These are a bit more specialized than standard picture frames, but they're still very common. Gallery frames usually feature a very simple design—a rectangular shape with rounded corners and no ornamentation—and they're made from either wood or metal (usually aluminum). The main advantage of this type of frame is that it gives your photos an artistic feel by displaying them on plain white walls.
Floating - Known for their ability to create an optical, floating frame are a great choice for anyone looking to add some visual interest to their space. Featuring an open design without any defined frame to bound the artwork, floating frames help create an open and airy feel that's perfect for rooms where you want to make sure there's plenty of breathing room. These are great for displaying canvas art.
Deep set - These frames are also known as inset frames because they're set back into the wall a little bit. They're great for larger pieces of artwork or photos, as they allow you to save space on your walls without sacrificing style. Deep-set frames can be placed anywhere in a room, from above windows to behind beds and couches—almost anywhere where you need something visually appealing but don't want it taking up too much room!
Shadow box - Shadowbox frames allow for the inclusion of objects or memorabilia, providing a unique way to merge different elements into the display. In contrast, floating frames focus solely on highlighting the artwork itself, without any additional objects or embellishments.
Wood - We love the look of natural wood because it’s one of the most physically and aesthetically pleasing materials. When stained, the grain varies from frame to frame and offers an additional level of interest and uniqueness to your art collection
MDF - Also known as medium-density fiberboard, MDF is recycled wood material. It’s made up of compressed sawdust that’s bound, wrapped, and sanded for a uniform finish. It looks just like the real thing, but MDF is more stable, cheaper, and requires less maintenance than solid wood. In addition to being a popular picture frame material, MDF is also common in cabinets, flooring, and furniture because it’s less likely to warp due to heat or humidity.
Metal - Another popular art frame material, metal, has just as many options and varieties as wood. Most metal picture frames are made of aluminum because it’s cost-effective and durable — especially when anodized. Resistant to corrosion, lightweight, and beautiful, perfect for a sleek modern look.
Plaster - Plaster is a cost-effective way to get that beautiful ornate look of antique frames, with the modern ability to customize color and texture. We use antique frames to create molds for plaster. Have a frame that you would like a exact copy of? We can create an exact replica.
Matboard - Most commonly used in framing, a matboard consists of 3 layers, the two outer layers comprised of a thicker wood pulp or cotton and an internal core made of several tightly compressed layers of the same material. There are many different options based on what look you would like to achieve and how protected you would like the piece to be. Some matboard has different textures available such as faux linen, metal, marble, or even leather.
Fabric - We can pin fabrics to matboard to create dimension and texture. Lace, velvet, silk, or suede, can give a unique feel to the framed piece.
Cardstock - The use of patterned cardstock can give more continuity between other are on your wall.
Glass - This is ordinary window glass. Picture framing glass is thinner, and flawless, although window glass may be used. Regular glass allows clear viewing of framed items at any depth, although there may be problems with glare.
Non-Glare Glass - This is clear glass etched or texturized to minimize reflections. Non-glare glass can cause viewing distortion when placed at a distance from artwork or objects.
UV-Filtering Glass - Also called conservation glass, this glass filters ultraviolet light rays, which are harmful to art. It is not a complete shield, and even with it, art should still be protected from too much light exposure.
Acrylic - Acrylic, the clear, unbreakable plastic often referred to by the brand name Plexiglas, has several advantages over glass that make it desirable in certain circumstances. The primary advantage of acrylic is how lightweight it is. When your frame is larger than 24"x 36", it's wise to opt for acrylic. The difference in weight is remarkable and glass is dangerous to handle in such large sizes. Acrylic has the added advantage of being virtually unbreakable; so if you need to ship your artwork, acrylic is the better choice. On the other hand, acrylic can scratch easily and must be cleaned with a soft cloth and plastic cleaner. Moreover, acrylic carries a high static charge and is risky to use with loose media like pastels and charcoals.
