Putting it in a frame may allow you to display it inside your house or any area you want it to and have it complements with the other decorations in it. It would also allow you to preserve its condition and may make the painting last longer.

Buying frames is not as easy as buying a random one on the shop that you think the picture can fit in. Sometimes they need an expert custom frames to do the job better. Shops in Syracuse, NY have experts who can help you with these and here are some tips in helping you find one.

Look for those offering their services in making custom frames. Some artwork shops may be also offering these so you can also check them out. Create a list of those that you have found and start getting more information about their works and themselves as well.

Ask your friends or family members if they can recommend anyone that is on your list. They may also give other recommendations that is not on your list and is someone that they had a good experience with when they acquired his or her services before. They would not be recommending anyone that they have a bad experience with and not satisfied with the result of the work done.

Ask about how long have they been doing this business. This would include where they have learned the skills necessary in helping you decide which frame to choose and the number of people they have helped. If a lot of people are going to them and asking for their opinions then they must have given great ones and their clients are satisfied with their assistance.

Inquire if you could see some references or sample works they did. These works could be displayed in their shop or house and it is a great way to see the quality of their works and the way they displayed the framed artwork and how it goes along with the other pieces of decorations.

Request for an explanation so that you can understand the ways in preserving the artworks you have by the various ways of framing. An example of this would be glazing which has different types like anti glare, UV reducing and standard glazing. A probable suggestion that they would make is not to have your oil paintings in a glazing.

Matting is another example of these which can also give depth to the image in the frame. It could also be used in having multiple pictures placed in one frame. The matting is wider than the framing most of the time and is weighted at the bottom as well. Frames are made from different materials, such as aluminum and wood, and it can give off different looks when it is displayed. The location is also important in determining the material of the frame will be made from.

Ask for the cost of his services and the price of having a custom frame. Its price usually depends on the materials the frames will be made of and its size. It would also include the price for its glazing and matting and other things that are used in making your custom frame.
