roadmonkey Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Thanks, I has having a hell of a time trying to find an awesome frame, then I saw that Gold fade to back and was like.. Perfect. I'm really happy with the way it came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfedaykinx Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 are those frames on the cheaper side or did you get those professionally framed? basically how much did it cost to get them to look so gorgeous? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 The frames were about mid range. I ended up paying about 750 for both, and that is only because I had a 20% off coupon to the place I got them done at. http://www.framersworkshop.com/ Obviously I did not choose the DIY option to get it framed since I didn't want it to get fucked up. Basically my philosophy was Jacob created some amazing pieces of art and I want them to be kept in a way that they'll pretty much last forever and be the most incredible complementary way. Even splurged for the special earthquake proof wall mounting. Fucking 5 inch screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadmonkey Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 yeah I was thinking that I should have just gotten one done and then the other a month later. Too bad that was way after the fact :/ Luckily I had enough in my savings to cover most of it. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magalvsr13 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Obviously I did not choose the DIY option to get it framed since I didn't want it to get fucked up. what are the problems with a cheap frame? say, i want to frame a print but cant really afford to have it professionally framed. Im just gonna buy a frame that fits and voila! save some money. but ive heard people say this will fuck up the print before, how so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best and cheapest don't go together. Best would be a professional framer, which vary greatly in price. Cheapest would be walmart/target frames for way cheap, but won't have a matte or be the right size. The best you can do is either DIY, which is kind of hard, or just check out different local professional framers to see who is the cheapest.

benchwarmer Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 as far as framing goes, I have had both, a cheap frame and a print framed by a professional. The cheap frames are just that. They tend to bend/brake the larger the frame you get. when you have a smaller print it's not that big of a deal. I have a few 18 x 24 prints in frames I got from target, and those work well. anything bigger than that I'd get it professionally done. I got my jane doe print professionally done and it looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
