Services & Tips

How to prepare, what to expect... With just a few bits of information from you, your frame designer will be better able to focus the design session.

  • Measure the space. Is the wall space for the art limited in any dimension?
  • Describe the area where your art will hang. Bring fabrics and samples of paint colors used in the room. Take a photo.
  • Study the finishes on floors and fixtures so they'll be fresh in your mind.
  • Want to frame an object or objects? Bring in any photos that might help tell the story.
  • Want to frame a collection of photos? Bring them loose and we will help create a pleasing arrangement for you. Avoid using any adhesives to attach them and/or trimming too close to the images.
  • When framing computer-generated images, please bring a test print so we can determine the best way to mount it for you. Photos printed using some of the newer reproduction processes cannot be mounted in traditional ways.
Our customers are enthusiastic about how much their framing delights them every day. Allow yourself some special time for designing the treatment for your art and you will enjoy the process as much as we do.

Museum Glass

Museum glass is quickly becoming our customers' favorite because it virtually disappears! A micro thin layer of a quartz-like coating creates the amazing effect. In addition, it blocks 97% of the damaging UV rays, just like the ever-popular Conservation Clear glass. Come see our display of these two glazing choices side by side that is convincing more shoppers it's THE way to go.

A Professional Wall-Hanging Service

The artwork displayed on your walls creates your own personal gallery. Taking the time to consider framing and placement is equally as important as choosing the very piece itself. Scott Shaner helps you display your personal artistic treasures.
