FRAMING SUGGESTIONS

Custom framing can be expensive but it isn't the only option for framing your print.  There are many beautiful & affordable options to choose from that you can purchase online.  

SEE THE READY-MADE FRAMES I RECOMMEND FOR THESE SIZES:

4x4     5x5     5x7     7x7     8x8    8x10     16x16

WANT TO FULLY CUSTOMIZE IT?

An affordable way to completely customize your mat & frame is to buy them through a site like americanframe.com, who has great quality frames and their site walks you through the whole process.  You choose the frame, mat, and sizes and they send you the joined frame plus everything else you need to assemble them yourself.  It's much more affordable than going to a frameshop and is a great option that I highly recommend.

JUST NEED A CUSTOM CUT MAT?

You can use any frame that's bigger than your print if you have a mat custom cut to fit.  Here are some instructions on getting a custom cut mat.

TRIMMING PRINTS TO FIT

All of my prints come with an additional white border around the image.  This is to make it easier to frame the traditional way with a mat, giving you some room to put the tape so you don't need to tape over the image itself & leaving room to float the image if you desire.  

However, if you're opting for a frame without a mat you may need to trim the white border off.  I am happy to do this upon request for you at the time of purchase, or you can trim it carefully yourself with scissors or a papercutter like this one.
