Framing Resources for Your Colorful Fine Art Prints and Paper Originals

You've found the perfect colorful art from my website, now you're on the hunt for a stunning frame that is beautiful, but also enhances the artwork's beauty. In this blog post I will share my favorite framing resources that I rely on to make my artwork be as bold as it's meant to be- in striking frames.

Frame it Easy: I've discovered a gem of a framing company that ticks all the boxes. Not only are they also a small business, but each frame is made to order for every painting, giving you the option to customize every element.

In this day and age, if you take a paper print or paper original to a framer, the cost can get very expensive. If you're looking for a high quality professional grade option, Frame it Easy is what I recommend. This is the perfect resource for those of you who don't mind putting the art into the frame themselves, instead of taking the art to a professional framer. The process of framing with a Frame it Easy frame takes maximum 10 minutes. The hardest part of the process is wiping the UV protection acrylic glass off to make sure every ounce of dust is gone. If I can see even one piece of dust under my art, it drives me crazy!

Although Frame it Easy are not paying me for this mention in my blog post, I do have a referral code that I can give to you. For 15% off go to this link. They have stunning frames, they're made in the USA, have fast shipping at good prices and even give you instructions on how to assemble the frames.

ArtToFrame- great for BIG prints:

If you're buying a really big print and don't want to break the bank on a frame, but also don't want to get a cheap looking frame, Art to Frame is perfect! This is a 36 x 36 inch frame for "The Industrial District" print on paper shown with a 2 inch white mat. 

Target + HomeGoods

Looking for something easy that you can grab off the shelf in person? Another good resource is big box stores. I love going to Target and Homegoods for well-made frames in standard sizes at fair prices.  If you don't find anything there, Michaels the craft store always has good options as well and frequently has sales.

IKEA is another store I frequent on a regular basis for frames. They have a large variety of sizes and the prices are very good. My favorite frame is this one, here is the link.
