What’s behind the frame?

Sep 10 2018 · 0 comments · Uncategorized

Hey everyone!

Gord Downie Giclee Print by Melissa Proudlock framed using non-glare glass.

‘Tis the season where our kids head back to school and we enter the busy season as we near Christmas… I know it’s early, but let us help you prepare!  Every year we frame thousands of pictures, posters, and jerseys (just to name a few) and we are always up to framing something new!  Make sure to check out our social media sites in the coming weeks to see some of the special projects we have completed as of recently!

When it comes to planning on having a special keepsake framed, or wondering what materials were utilized to frame your artwork, there is a lot of information to take in.  To help answer some question you may have, we would like to share with you the types of materials we use, and the reasons for our material selection.

Now to provide such detail regarding all that goes into framing in one blog post would… well… be a lot to read.  Thus, I will be addressing this topic over the course of three blog posts, so make sure to check back next month for the latest news on what materials surround your important pieces.

For the month of September, we are going to focus on the glass we use at Kennedy Picture Framing.  With over 35 years of experience, we are committed to excellence and delivering only the very best work.  We also believe that the companies we source from, must also share this same commitment to excellence. Now it is important to note that not every framed piece will necessarily require the same type of glass, and here at Kennedy Picture Framing, we understand the importance of using the proper glass to protect your valuable piece.  To learn more about the different glass options we offer, please visit our website, and if you aren’t sure which glass would be best for your framing needs, we are always here to help!

See you soon!

Catherine (the bookkeeper)

    Instagram post 2224272812524996105_6370601703 Hey January, we see you! 👀 While we were enjoying the lovely surprise of spring like weather, we knew it was too good to be true... as such, today’s weather is a reminder that it is still winter. ❄️ We have decided to close early given the poor driving conditions and expected weather.  Sorry for any inconvenience.  Stay safe and warm this evening!
