Christina has owned this business since 1980 and attributes her businesses success to the fact that she always tries to give her customers ‘more than they expect’.

Her frame selections are very diverse, as she orders from dozens of companies. With over 1000 frames to choose from, the real wood (not plastic or fiberboard!) or metal frames range from ½ inch to 6 inches wide, and will complement any décor. All frames and matting are custom-made right on premises, to insure an exact fit for your treasured items.

Christina explained that an important part of her job is to ‘offer creative solutions to all her customers framing projects’. And if you think of framing for only photos and paintings…think again! She has some really creative examples for framing precious heirlooms and memorabilia that I had not thought of before. That hand-crocheted doily made by your grandmother that is packed away in a box would be a beautiful addition to your bedroom wall, once framed and matted. Or your child’s christening gown. Or hubby's prized sports jersey – nicely matted and framed. And what great gifts some of these items could make!

In addition to your frame selection, matting makes such a big difference. Christina said that her ‘Wizard Mat Cutter’ machine offers her customers a huge assortment of matting options. This machine custom designs the matting to really enhance your work of art or keepsake. Creative matting is not that expensive and will give your framing project that professional touch!

Also, Christina said that some framing stores will glue Grandmas doily or hubby’s jersey onto the matting, which makes it impossible to remove the item from the frame. Not Christina…she hand sews your items onto the mat so you can remove the item with a few snips of the scissors if needed. She said that she always “treats your items that are brought in for framing as if they were my own.”

Framin’ Works also offers ‘Museum quality’ framing with acid-free matting and backing and UV resistant glass. They also offer pick-up and delivery and in-home consultations to help you determine the most pleasing arrangements for your art work.
