It's been a while since I framed anything myself but after the last invoice from a local frame shop, I am thinking that it is time to reconsider online framing outfits. I have other hobbies/habits competing for my paycheck after all!

I used to use American Frames with pretty good success. Curious if anyone still uses them or if there are other sources that members have had good luck with.

Thanks!

I think a lot of people here use Frame Destination (theyre a member here) and they sometimes offer discount codes for EB.

Thanks for the mention. As the owner of Frame Destination I am biased of course but I feel we have the best quality and some of that is our smaller size makes it easier for us to maintain quality and I believe it is higher priority for us, especially when it comes to the packing for shipping. American Frame is a close second and they are the only company I would recommend besides us. My suggest is check us out, and if you cant find what you need then check out American Frame.

I am glad I asked! I would always prefer to give my business to a fellow EB’er. Do you offer little frame or mat samples by any chance? Although I don’t always need them, it’s super handy when they are needed.
