Picture Frames

While the frame is often an afterthought to the art or photograph it’s encompassing, having a proper picture frame is just as important as the piece itself. Good photo frames become a part of the arrangement, often enhancing the subject matter, so a poor choice in style or incorrect size can make your artwork stand out, and not in a good way. Here are some things to consider when you looking through various picture frames for sale:

What size picture frame should I buy?

As you pick your size, you need to decide whether or not you want to include a mat or not. Matting often helps your art or photo stand out, though it can also cut off the image if the picture frame is not sized to accommodate it. Make sure you factor it in when making your purchase; if you opt to go without a mat, your photo or artwork should be the exact size of the interior opening of your frame — you don’t want to have any of the unattractive cardboard backing showing, or have to trim any of the art itself.

What style photo frames should I look for?

When it comes to style, think about what is going to be inside the frame. Make sure the style of the art or photograph complements the style of the frame itself. Consider texture, colors and material. You want your picture frame and artwork to work well together, so pick one that serves to enhance the art, not detract from its beauty. Try an option with minimal design details to make your art stand out, or try a bold frame with a bit of interest to contrast the piece.
