Custom Framing Services

  • Custom framing: We use a wide variety of materials and style options to create picture and art frames in the size and shape you need for your artwork. A high-quality frame can truly be the finishing touch your artwork needs to fulfill its aesthetic potential.
  • Shadow boxes: If you have a collection or a grouping of items you’d like to place in a shadow box, we create custom boxes that fit your needs. The types of designs we create for our shadow boxes depend on the theme of the items that will be placed inside, the materials you’d like to use and the size you need.
  • Display boxes: Similar to shadow boxes, display boxes are often used to house collections or items of some importance. They also can quickly become much larger items. We are pleased to work with you to create a custom display box for your special items.

Our framing services are extensive, so if you have any questions about the types of services we provide, we encourage you to give us a call.
