Canvas Framing
 

We are looking to have some valuable paintings framed. Does anyone have any experience with local stores in the area that are reasonable and do quality work that they would recommend?

I hate to pay the arm and leg that they expect, even with half off and 60% off. I just had a picture of a golf course framed for Sweetie for Christmas...(DON'T TELL HIM) and I was shocked at the price for a very simple one mat frame with glass. I always am. I am very tight.

Michaels and Joanns have framing services. I have also heard that there is a framer at Markets of Marion. You have valuable things, I don't, so perhaps you could find something in Orlando or Ocala? Someone will know on this forum. Good luck...and post a picture please so we can enjoy the end result.

Kind wishes,
Gracie.

Even with Jo-ann's 60% off coupon, the price is very high, like Gracie said. After getting a quote from them we took a large print to Universal Frames at Market of Marion and got three mats instead of two for much less money. They also have a shop in Eustis. The number I have for them there is 352-357-8188.

Our art isn't really valuable. For fine art you may want to visit Kings Gallery in Spanish Springs.
