What to Expect During Your Framing Consultation

What to Expect During Your Framing Consultation

At Frames Now, we believe framing is not just about preserving art, photos, or memorabilia—it’s about showcasing your most treasured items in the best possible way. That’s why we offer personalised in-store consultations to guide you through the framing process from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect when you visit us for an in-store framing consultation.

1. Warm Welcome and a Personalised Approach

The moment you step into one of our Frames Now locations, you’ll be greeted by one of our friendly team members. We believe every framing project is unique, so our approach is always personal. Whether you're framing a family photo, a piece of art, or a treasured memento, our experts take the time to listen to your vision and discuss what you’re looking to achieve with your frame.

2. Choosing the Right Frame Style

One of the first steps in the consultation is helping you choose the right frame style. Our consultants will present you with a wide variety of framing options, from sleek and modern to classic and ornate. We’ll discuss factors like the item’s colour, texture, and the overall look you're going for. Frames Now offers an extensive collection of frames to suit any style, ensuring that your piece fits perfectly with the rest of your décor.

3. Matting and Glass Options

Choosing the right matboard and glass is just as important as selecting the frame itself. Our experts will guide you through various matting options, showing you how different colours and textures can enhance your piece. We’ll also explain the benefits of different types of glass, such as UV-protective glass to preserve your artwork, or non-reflective glass for a clearer view in brightly lit spaces.

4. Getting a Quote and Timeline

Once you’ve made your selections, we’ll provide you with a detailed quote for the framing. We believe in transparency, so there are no hidden costs. Along with your quote, you’ll also receive an estimated completion date. We work efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of quality, so you can look forward to seeing your framed piece soon.

5. Leave Your Treasures in Good Hands

After finalising your choices, you’ll leave your artwork or memorabilia with us. Rest assured that your items will be handled with care throughout the entire framing process, from crafting the perfect frame to safely securing your piece within it.

When your frame is ready, we’ll give you a call to let you know it’s time to pick up your beautifully framed piece. You’ll be amazed at how the right frame can elevate the look and feel of your item, turning it into a true work of art that you’ll be proud to display.

At Frames Now, we’re passionate about framing and helping our customers create lasting memories. Our in-store consultations are designed to ensure you receive personalised advice, expert craftsmanship, and a frame that’s perfect for your needs. Visit us today and let us help you bring your cherished items to life!
