Frames - Page 2

Places like Aaron Brothers or other frame stores actually have a very good selection of standard-size premade frames for relatively little ($10-$30, cheaper if you wait for their buy-one-get-one sales). We were able to find a couple for our Shag framing project there.

If you have Michael's I've seen frames there in many sizes. It's a craft store by the way.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll check out both Aaron Brothers and Michaels as well as another craft store near me.

You might want to check out Dick Blick, they seem to have sales on frames from time to time.

Is this link safe for work?

I say check out some thrift stores. Often they have huge framed posters for sale in some really nice frames. Since the picture stinks, they sell the whole kit-n-kaboodle for a really low price.

Or you could date someone who works in a custom framing store. Often, they get minorly damaged molding in from their vendors and they throw it away. The guy you date could hook you up.

Or you could steal. But I wouldn't recommend it.

What size is an LP? I THINK I've seen frames for them at Michael's.

And someone I know who works at Michael's said she thought there was an extra big sale starting tomorrow - just based on the hours she was scheduled for, so might not be real.

Ugh, I need to get my authentic, ripped-from-Disneyland-itself, gigantoidly HuGe Adventure thru Inner Space attraction poster framed ... and it's got to be like an amazing frame for this amazing piece.

And did I mention HuGe?!

And did I forget to mention that it needs museum-quality, sun-damage resistant glass?

Small Fortune Frame Job. Ugh.
