Past Projects, Many Styles

Every finished piece in this gallery started as a customer's art, poster, autograph, or keepsake. The projects shown reflect the range of work handled over the years — from straightforward art framing to layered shadowbox displays built around collectibles.

Custom picture framing is far more than simply placing a print behind glass. Each project begins with a conversation about the piece itself—its history, its intended location, and the feeling it should evoke. The moulding selection alone opens up hundreds of possibilities, from sleek modern metals to warm traditional woods. Matting choices add another layer, with colors and cuts that either complement or contrast the artwork. Whether the item is a treasured family photograph, a limited-edition print, or a child's first art project, the goal remains the same: to present it in a way that honors its significance while blending naturally into the home or office environment where it will live.

Shadowbox displays are one of the most creative areas of custom framing, transforming three-dimensional objects into wall-worthy art. Military medals, sports jerseys, wedding bouquets, law enforcement badges, and even arrowheads have all found new life inside deep frames with carefully positioned mounting systems. The challenge lies in arranging items so they tell a story without appearing cluttered. Each keepsake is secured using archival methods that prevent shifting or damage over time. Background fabrics, platform heights, and dedicated recesses for small objects all contribute to a finished piece that feels intentional and polished, preserving memories in a format that can be enjoyed daily.

Fine art and poster framing requires a different kind of attention, where the frame must serve the artwork without overwhelming it. Original paintings, signed movie stills, concert posters, and numbered prints each demand specific handling. Acrylic or glass selection matters greatly—non-glare options for brightly lit rooms, UV-protective glazing for pieces exposed to sunlight, and lightweight acrylic for large-scale works that will be transported or hung on less sturdy walls. The mat window must be cut with precision, and the backing board must be acid-free to prevent long-term yellowing or deterioration. The result is a seamless presentation that makes the art appear at its absolute best.

Browsing a gallery of past projects offers more than just visual inspiration—it demonstrates what is possible with thoughtful design and skilled craftsmanship. Every framed piece shown represents a unique set of decisions about materials, layout, and finishing touches. Customers often arrive with a general idea but leave with something far more refined after exploring options they had not considered. The variety on display ranges from simple, elegant single-mat configurations to elaborate multi-layered compositions with fillets, accent panels, and custom-painted moulding. Seeing these completed works helps visitors imagine their own cherished items transformed into lasting, display-worthy pieces for any room in the home or business.
