Welcome to the exciting world of picture framing. What’s so exciting about it? In the words of my brother: “Picture framing? That sounds simple.” You’re probably thinking the same thing. Just go to Junk Mart, buy a little ten dollar frame, and slap your picture in it. What’s all the fuss about? Why spend money to have a professional do it? Why even have professionals that do this simple thing? What’s the big deal?
Folks, the big deal is what this blog is all about. I’m going to show you things that I do on a daily basis that you simply can not get out of a department store pre-fabricated frame. Custom picture framing goes beyond just getting a frame on your odd sized piece of art.
With the right design, you can achieve that “Wow!” factor that you want to get for your money. A proper frame doesn’t simply frame an object, it completes it. It doesn’t distract or take away from a piece; it adds depth and draws attention to it.
And it doesn’t have to be expensive. I’m going to show you some things that you can add to a frame design that will have all the pop of a great design, without adding crazy amounts to the cost of an item.
This is going to be fun. I think after a few posts here in this blog, you’ll start getting an idea of how cool framing can be. Who knows, maybe you’ll be inspired to bring in a piece of your own and see what great things we can do with it.
