We've got a few skeletons in our closet. 💀
Okay, technically they're hanging on the walls.

We couldn't let October slip away without sharing one more wonderfully macabre piece that came through our shop!

This delightfully unsettling artwork found its perfect match in a dark, distressed custom frame with just enough texture and character to complement the artwork's raw, expressive style.

A little creepy. A little unconventional. And exactly the kind of art we love working with.

Happy almost-Halloween from The FrameSmith! 🎃

Not everything that belongs in a frame is flat.
Case in point: THIS incredible dimensional mask!

With its bold colors, intricate details, and sculptural design, we created a custom frame presentation that gives the mask room to breathe, with a deep, textured frame and dark background that really make those colors pop.

And that side view? That's where you can really appreciate the depth and dimension of this piece!

Artwork comes in all shapes, sizes, and dimensions. And figuring out how to frame the unexpected is one of our favorite parts of the job.

So yes, we can frame THAT, too!

Your art doesn't have to make sense to anyone else. We just want to frame it. 😎

The unusual, the unexpected, the slightly outrageous...bring it on.

We love seeing what walks through our doors!

Quite the pair, aren't they?!

We recently framed these two delightfully odd pieces in matching black frames, and we're kind of obsessed with their personalities.

Not every piece of art needs to be serious or sophisticated. Sometimes a little mischief is exactly what your walls need!

So here's the question...if you could only hang ONE, which would you choose?

🐍 The wine-loving snake?

🐈‍⬛ Or the suspiciously mischievous cat?

We're curious to see who wins this one!

This original 1985 Rocky Horror Picture Show anniversary poster is a perfect example of why thoughtful custom framing matters.

Vintage posters can be surprisingly delicate, and the right framing materials and techniques can help protect them from fading, discoloration, and damage over time.

For this one, we kept the design simple. A classic black frame, a clean presentation, and all the attention right where it belongs — on that fabulous vintage artwork!

Because whether it's a concert poster, a movie poster, or a little piece of pop culture history, some things are worth taking care of.

A little dark. A little mysterious. A whole lot of personality. 🖤

We chose a rich, dark walnut float frame that complements the moody tones of this canvas while adding just enough warmth and dimension to finish it beautifully.

Who says everything has to match?! 😉

One of our favorite things about a gallery wall is the opportunity to mix things up!

Different frame styles, finishes, colors, and matting can absolutely work together to create a beautiful, cohesive display. The trick isn't making everything identical — it's finding the right balance.

This collection is a perfect example! Each piece has its own personality, but together they create a gallery wall that's interesting, collected, and full of character.

So if you've been holding off on creating a gallery wall because your frames don't all match...consider this your permission to mix it up!

Every once in a while, a project comes through our doors that really stops us in our tracks. This was one of those.

This extraordinary American flag dates back to World War II and was raised at Red Beach in the Philippines, marking the reestablishment of an American presence and the beginning of the liberation of the Philippines from Japanese occupation.

Just WOW.

We were entrusted with custom framing this incredible piece of history, and between its impressive size, age, and historical significance, it was a project unlike any other.

Our goal was to create a presentation worthy of its story while allowing the flag itself, with all its age and character, to remain the star of the show.

And seeing it installed in our client's home? That's the icing on the cake!

We're so grateful to have been a small part of preserving this remarkable piece of history.

YES, WE CAN FRAME THAT! 🎸

This custom shadowbox was definitely not your average framing project. With objects of different shapes, sizes, and depths, we had to carefully plan the layout and create custom mounts to securely display each piece.

Unlike traditional picture framing, shadowboxes require a little engineering behind the scenes. Everything needs to be properly supported, positioned, and secured without taking away from the overall presentation.

We finished it off with a deep black custom frame and a warm, neutral background that works beautifully with the wood tones of the guitar and r***e.

**Not everything worth framing is flat!** And projects like this are some of our favorites.

Let's talk FLOAT FRAMES!

One of our favorite ways to finish an original canvas is with a floating frame, like this beautiful gold one!

Unlike a traditional frame that overlaps the edges of the artwork, a float frame leaves a small gap between the canvas and the frame. This creates the illusion that the artwork is floating inside it!

For this colorful sunset, we chose a warm gold finish that picks up those gorgeous oranges and yellows, while the dark space around the canvas adds a little depth and contrast.

It's a simple detail that gives a canvas a really beautiful, finished look.

And seriously...those sunset colors! 😍
