Whether it be a poster, a print from a family holiday or a piece of artwork that you have carefully selected, finding the perfect picture frame can be a time-consuming process.
You can often find ready-made frames from the likes of Ikea or John Lewis and they, all too often, have attractive price tags, but is it worth taking the risk of having your artwork ruined or have it fall apart over time? With online framing, you get the benefit of a seamless ordering process from the first day you order until the moment it is delivered to your door. Along with this, you have the added benefit of having top of the line materials to choose from and a wealth of experience.
So here are the 4 main reasons why ordering a picture frame online is a great idea:
Most things that come into direct contact with your artwork run the risk of deterioration and fading it over time. Our Made-To-Measure Picture Frames are built by hand and carefully selected matting is chosen, which helps to reduce yellowing of paper-based artwork. The backing that we also use is placed behind your artwork to keep out dust and other floating material.
The glaze, aka glass, is the protective front that covers your artwork, and this is essential for the majority of framing work. At EasyFrame we use high-quality, shatter-resistant acrylic that is specifically chosen to emphasise the quality of the artwork and also add another layer of protection.
You wouldn't purchase a pair of shoes that don't fit and the same goes when framing your art piece.
Although ready-made frames can be more appealing on price, your options are limited if you have an odd-sized piece of art or if you want to choose a frame style or a special treatment that would complement the piece better.
When you buy a picture frame from a general shop, you are more or less on your own. This isn't always a bad thing; you don't always need to invest more money into something that isn't necessary. Sometimes, you are lucky enough to walk away with a frame that enhances what you put inside without spending too much.
There is an issue however when you don't have the vision to bring your artwork and frame together... this is where the insight of a professional is invaluable. We can work with you to give you advice on the best colours to use and the right materials that will ultimately give you that wow factor to your friends and family.
Perhaps you already have an idea of what you would like the piece to look like, that's fantastic too! With our Multi Aperture Picture Frame & Mount Designer, you can select the layout and size, mounts, frames glazing and some added extras too!
Perhaps you have something peculiar to frame such as a guitar, a football shirt or drumsticks? We love to offer a bespoke service with custom orders and will work with you to bring your creation to life.
It can be easy to give into the instant gratification of a shop-bought picture frame, however, opting for a custom-made picture frame doesn't mean you have to wait weeks or months for your finished piece.
Our frames are handcrafted, assembled and posted to you in no time at all, even during holiday periods! We are proud to say that our frames are delivered to you within a week but be sure to allow a little more time if you have posted items to us for framing.
We always go the extra mile to make sure you are happy with the final result and that you receive your item on time. If you have your print or image dimensions handy, take a look at our Digital Printing and Framing Services or reach out to us for some free recommendations.
Any good framers will be able to show you a vast range of different solutions and advise on what might be the most suitable given the work and its proposed location.
