OUR SERVICES

20240618_163558191_iOS.jpg

We offer a wide set of services and always interested in new opportunities. If you don't see what you are looking for and it is related to Custom Framing, give us a call and we can discuss if something we would be willing to pursue. 

Here is a general list (mostly complete) of our current services we offer:​

  • Traditional custom picture framing (with pre-finished moulding)

  • Handcrafted moulding using domestic and exotic hardwoods (and softwoods)

  • Jerseys, Papyrus and other textiles and objects

  • Partial custom framing, just the components you need

  • Canvas stretching and custom-made stretcher strainers (non-keyed)

  • Canvas Strip-lining (expanding the size of an unstretched canvas so it can be stretched)

  • COMING SOON! Laser engraving: In-house metal/wood plates or directly on the frame

  • COMING SOON! Linen backing posters

  • Handcrafted Folio Boxes in 8x10 and 11x14 sizes

  • Picture and mirror repairs (failed joints, dust cover replacement, glass replacement, etc.)

  • Full support of "Bring Your Own Materials" to help keep costs low - frame, glazing (glass or acrylic), matting or other supplies

  • Frame resizing/reduction and re-joining: See a frame at a thrift store or estate sale you like? We can resize it (reduction only)

  • Photo Printing...sorta. This is a dye-based Epson ET-8550 which can print up to 13"x9'. I have various photo paper types and sizes in stock. This is not an archival pigment-based printer, but prints quality prints that will last decades.

  • Photo scanning and light restoration

  • Preservation, Conservation and Economy framing options, we consider ourselves pragmatic framers

  • Free quotes and estimates, many can be done over the phone or in email

  • Float frames

  • Circle and oval mats

  • Fabric covered mats (bring your own fabric)

  • Complex/multiple window mats, although we do not have a Computerized Mat Cutter/CMC, so we will have some limitations here

  • Oversize pictures (mat cutting size is limited to 48" on any dimension)

  • We sell any raw materials and cut if needed (glass, mat, moulding, supplies, etc.)

  • Picture shipping services (up to a point, we do not do wood crating/freight, but most pictures that can ship through USPS, UPS or Fedex, we can securely pack them for shipping and ship it for you if you want

  • Rush orders, provided we have all the materials, we have been known to turn around orders in 1 day. Even if we have to order, we get deliveries from our wholesalers Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.

  • Partner with photographers, artists and interior designers (locally and across the USA), create a frame unique to your "brand". We will work with you to achieve your the design and budget. 

  • We do have a growing collection of art (pop-culture, automotive, and things we just like) for sale framed or unframed

  • Insured for "items in trust" (proof of value required)

  • We will teach you how to do any step of the process, just ask (cost of materials only)!

  • Probably more...but this is my initial brain dump.

​

Some other areas we have planned for the next 12-24 months (sooner if someone requests it):

  • Epoxy inlay handcrafted moulding (more of an idea at this point)

  • High-resolution archival printing (artwork, giclees and archival-level photography)

  • French mats (I can do some simple ones now, but more elaborate are planned at some point)
  • Full photo restoration

  • Display acrylic boxes

​​

What do we not do?

  • Well, to start with, our shop does not have a bathroom - plan accordingly.

  • Freehand/complex designs for mats (which would require a Computerized Mat Cutter/CMC)

  • Try to "upsell" you - we will give you likely a price which will be hard to match with exceptional quality regardless of the value or how much you are spending...now, I can't guarantee it matches your budget or expectations...
