"I've had multiple different art pieces and personal effects framed here, and it's my go-to (we'll ONLY) framer at this point. The team are all super supportive, friendly and helpful. They are able to propose amazing framing options, or take the lead from the customer - it all results in a great synergy where framed pieces come out looking top notch. Custom framing is worth it in my opinion, and Curtis helps do it right!"

"We had three posters framed and get so many amazing compliments. One was an original Bob Dylan album poster and the care that was taken really meant so much to us."

"I went to the Wine about Winter event for the first time and was impressed by Debb, the shop and all of the framing options not to mention the beautiful local art represented."

"This place is such a gem! Upon calling the store to inquire about whether they could frame an oversized painting Sharon called me back immediately with details. We worked with both Susan and Sharon, who are very knowledgeable in a no frills kind of way. We are absolutely in love with our framed painting which graced a large wall in our living room. The craftsmanship shows and looks so much better than another big box framed painting. Other pros: they provide delivery. Our driver was communicative and professional. They display/sell other local artists' painting in the area too. My husband and I had a great experience; we would definitely come back here again!"
