Where can I get an odd shape frame (with mat) without breaking the bank
I went to local frame shops but they want almost $200 for a frame. I printed a 22" X 9" picture that I would like to Mat and Frame. My budget is under $40. Anyone have any suggestions? I woul like to use a light, natural wood for the frame. Thanks in advance

If there is a Hobby Lobby near you, they usually do framing for a very reasonable price.

Did you try googling frames?
Maybe check these prices: http://www.matcutter.com/?referrer=g...FRe4SAodKRiKSA

Re: Where can I get an odd shape frame (with mat) without breaking the bank
I've used wooden frames from framesbymail and always been pleased.. they have an online tool, and you can make any size frame you want.
Just for the heck of it, I built a 1" Flat Top Black wooden frame with a matted 8 3/4" x 21 3/4" opening, with acid-free backing and non-glare plexiglass for $43. Last edited by BrandonSi : 26th of January 2007 (Fri) at 18:02. |
