Tips for Choosing the Right Frame:
Matting: If you want to add a mat (a border between the artwork and the frame), you’ll need to adjust the frame size to allow for it. A standard mat size is 2-4 inches, so make sure to consider that when selecting a frame.
Fit & Aesthetics: If you prefer a more minimalist look, you might choose a frame that fits the print snugly with no mat. Alternatively, a larger frame with a mat can create a more classic, gallery-style look.
Wall Space: Consider the space where you plan to hang the art. Larger frames are perfect for spacious walls or creating a focal point in a room, while smaller frames work well in more intimate spaces.
FAQ
Q: Do you offer custom framing? A: We offer a variety of frame styles and sizes. If you need a custom frame, please contact us, and we’ll assist you in finding the perfect fit.
Q: How do I know which size frame will look best in my space? A: Consider the wall space and the style of your room. For large, open spaces, bigger frames tend to make a statement. For smaller, more personal spaces, try opting for smaller prints with frames that suit the area’s vibe.
Q. Do I have to have a frame? A: Absolutely not. Consider the setting where you want to place the art. In rustic settings where a lot of natural material or exposed brick is present, unframed mounted canvas prints make a beautiful blend of tasteful but rustic. In the right setting unframed art will enhance the space perfectly.
