I decided once I read about how it was done not to do it. I guess I just need to make sure my work gets to my collectors undamaged. Pluss the sides are painted anyway and it's wired and can be hung without a frame. So if they later decide to have one they can shop around. A middle man with my work makes me to nervious. |

Most of my work is already framed because the matting (where needed) and framing is part of the look of the artwork itself. I buy 8-ply museum mats and whitewash maple frames wholesale. In some cases I embellish the frame with metallic paint or small medallions. A customer could never frame with the gallery quality I offer on their own for the same price. Howeevr, I think I need to convey that better on my site. |

Just a bit of info for those who do canvas "Gallery Wrap" framing, or wrap around framing. I've found that floaters give the pieces a nice touch and look more polished, especially when delivering a diptych or triptych. Of course it all depends on the size of the piece, but I just purchased
3 32x36in. black floaters at 50.00 ea. Not bad...in my opinion! :) Just a suggestion. |

Cesar, I don't think I know what floaters are? |

Hey Iris,
Log onto PictureFrames.com then hit "Metal Frames" and click on Canvas Floaters. I used the 718BLK. |

I wonder if the framing feature of BG is selling well? I have not seen anyone sold a piece with that. |

Good question Momoko......how is the framing going on BG?
We all wonder about this! |
