how does it work?

In-Store consultation

At The District Framery, we have worked with nearly anything that can be placed in a frame or hung on a wall, and creative challenges are our specialty. Our experience ranges from simple projects to entirely custom, complex display pieces. Whatever you’d like to have framed, from a small print to a ten-foot canvas, poster or antique keepsake, a beveled mirror or a folding media screen, we will work with you to create a display you’ll love for a long time. Our motto is “if you can imagine it, we can frame it.”

Choose a Design

The best custom framing designs are created based on consideration about your tastes, the intended hanging location, and the appearance of the item itself. This way, the framing is customized for your piece and your specific requirements to the utmost of our abilities. There is no charge for design advice, and a design specialist will be able to show you samples and ideas, as well as a quote.

Free Estimates

Because there are so many variables involved, it is difficult to give accurate pricing sight unseen. We will always do our best to give a predicted range of pricing, but the best way to get a good idea of the cost to frame your specific item is to bring it to our store location in person.
