CHEAP picture framing. Does such a thing exist?

[fogbat]

My housemate built an enormous wooden picture frame.

He's quite handy at his DIY, but afaik doesn't have any specialist tools beyond an electric drill and some saws. Will ask him about it...

You can buy cheap picture frames online

But you can't advertise them here. Advert removed.

Does anyone know where to get artwork framed?. It's canvas, but not the type that stretches. I've been quoted £100+ and I need to do three of them...

Tito is still around but not from those premises. I think the number is still correct, if not, let me know and I'll dig out his mobile no.

When was the last time you used him, Kanda?

My old flatmates use him all the time for their artwork.

I got frames made pretty cheaply and they used a plasticky alternative to glass to cut down on cost and weight - but it looks just as good. This place: http://www.frames.uk.com/ Their website is utterly, utterly atrocious, but they are cheap, offer loads of choices, custom make them to your size and spec, and seemed to have good customer service when I contacted them.

Cheers.

I only ask cos it was ages ago you gave me his number (which I haven't got anymore) and I've still not got round to contacting him.

 

[Kanda]

Want me to dig it out?

 

[Onket]

Please.

Thanks for this too Kanda. I'd lost his number - saving it in my phone now!
