Designing your own frame and mount

February 19, 2010
Posted in Picture Frames — Written by Amelia

It is now possible with the advancements in technology for you to be able to custom make the frame and mount that you are going to use for a piece of art or a photograph.

This is because there are now different machines that can cut frames to ensure that they fit perfectly and also show off your artwork to its best advantage. You will be really amazed at how impressive custom made frames can be and it can all be done online.

Firstly you will need to measure the item that you want to frame. This is to ensure that you get the right size of frame. Secondly, choose the mount style. Mounts come in different styles but they all come with a 45 degree bevelled edge. After this you will need to decide on the colour of your mount. Generally it is advisable to use a colour which is neutral when framing photographs or prints.

The next time is to decide on the frame that you want. Frames can either be metal or wooden. You also get to choose the colour and style of the frame that you use. Frames range widely from traditional to contemporary.
