I’ve Been Framed

May 12, 2014 By admin

One young man says: “I’ve been framed” and he’s happy about it because it took place at the Campbelltown Framing Gallery. Hashem is ten years old and jumped at the opportunity to be part of our television commercial.

Our television commercial turned a few heads when it was filmed. Hashem, as well as being our star, is also a great swimmer and is one of the top 10 breath-stroke swimmers in NSW. He is also the goalie for the Macarthur Rams soccer team – something he loves.  He has proudly worn his mohawk (in the summer months) since he was six years old.

I’ve Been Framed – Fun Shoot

Lee Copp and his sister Nicole Crowfoot who are legends at Campbelltown Theatre were happy to play their rolls. And loved being a bit “oddball” in public.  Lee and Nicole have a swag of acting credits including lead and minor rolls in many plays over the past years.  Lee was honest and said that our commercial was not his most challenging roll – but it was fun to do.

At Campbelltown Framing Gallery – “I’ve been Framed” is music to our ears.

Picture Framing

March 11, 2014 By admin

Campbelltown Framing Gallery is a family business operated by Ed and Cynthia.   We have over sixty years experience in the framing industry and we are known for our high quality workmanship.  We also pride ourselves on being one of the few conservation framers in the Macarthur area.

Campbelltown Framing Gallery – Conservation Framers

Conservation framing means we use the very best acid-free materials to protect and preserve your work.  Artworks come in many shapes and sizes including original art, prints, photography, embroidery, certificates, military and memorabilia.  At Campbelltown Framing Gallery every picture framing job is treated with respect – we appreciate that your work needs protection because of its sentimental, historical or monetary value.  Our best job today ensures your work will be around for future generations.

Quality materials used include paper, mat boards, glass, tape, staples and mouldings (moldings).  Anything that comes into contact with your work has to be of the finest quality.  You can be assured your work will never be glued, sprayed, stapled or cut.  We have seen work that has been cut to fit the frame.  At Campbelltown Framing Gallery our frames are cut to fit your work.  None of our frames are pre-cut – we have three metre lengths of picture frame moldings in store.

Samples can help in deciding the right frame when picture framingWe do not use MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard).  This board attracts moisture to itself and mould can set in and destroy your work.  Sadly we have to re-frame works that have deteriorated due to poor quality materials and workmanship – if your works are worth keeping it is an investment to frame them well.

This excellent article in Wikipedia can give you more insight into picture framing.  The frame should compliment the picture but not become the main focus.

Not all framing requires glass. But when it is used matting is very important to keep the picture from sticking to the glass – a picture can be easily ruined from condensation on the inside of the glass.

At Campbelltown Framing Gallery we pride ourselves on quality.  On your first visit we will inspect your work with you and discuss your requirements.  A simple quote is not possible unless we know how you intend to show the work, the type of picture frame moulding and whether glass is a requirement.

We are humbled that so many of our customers return to Campbelltown Framing Gallery year after year.  Each job is special and that is the way it must be.

Framing Medals

March 6, 2014 By admin

We take great care when framing medals, citations and memorabilia.  These may be your own awards or those of family members.  Some people prefer to frame their original medals but have access to them for Anzac Day and other occasions.  For family heirlooms 3D Boxes can be created to hold medals, photographs, service history, plaques and anything else of significant sentimental value.

We can also arrange to have medals mounted to the correct military standards.  Mounting is the fastening of ribbon and clasps to the actual medal.  The medals are then grouped and fastened together.

Mounted medals campbelltown framing galleryAt Campbelltown Framing Gallery we ensure that medals are placed in the correct order.  Service medals cannot be placed in any order so they look pretty – the correct order for mounting and framing of Australian Honours and Awards can be found on the Defence Honours and Awards and It’s an Honour websites.  These are both excellent resources.

Framing Medals and Mounting

Campbelltown Framing Gallery is able to help you present your medals and military memorabilia in the best way possible. We can also:

  • Arrange for the mounting of existing medals.
  • Arrange for replacement ribbons if the medal ribbon on older medals has deteriorated.
  • Access information on the correct placement of foreign medals.
  • Arrange to have old photographs repaired or freshened up.
  • Recommend a selection of frames or 3D Boxes to hold your medals.

At Campbelltown Framing Gallery our frames and 3D Boxes are created to suit your work and not vice versa.  Our computer programs are able to  cut mats to the finest detail – even obscure shapes and sizes.  The right medal framing pays a great honour to the family members they represent.

When framing medals and military memorabilia we know it’s special.  Those medals represent family members who served their country well. May we never forget them.

Business Framing

February 26, 2014 By admin

We have been framing for business (business framing) since the 80’s and each job is as important as the best work of art.  The same principles apply whether the job is a certificate, letter, photograph or a painting.  Campbelltown Framing Gallery is a conservation framer – this means our products (and attitudes) are acid free.

Business Framing – some of our clients include:

Campbelltown Council
Campbelltown Art Centre
Campbelltown Chamber of Commerce
C91.3 fm
Camden Council
Profit Advantage Group
Visy Packaging
Toyota
Hillbrick Bicycles
Moore Truck Parts
Local artists
Business Awards
Schools and Colleges
Scout Jamboree

We know the certificate, award or letter of appreciation will hang in public view – during its life it may have thousands of admirers. It has to be right.  Acid free materials will ensure the award does not attract mould or yellowing.  The best materials give your awards the life they deserve. Far too often a cheap frame will leave the certificate looking unappreciated.

Individual awards have to be protected for generations. These treasured items mean a great deal to the recipient and their admirers.  Yes, a cheap frame can be bought at the $2 shop – but it shows little love for the recipient. A great frame will certainly add to the occasion.

Framing for Business – Special Challenges

Business and Corporate framing at Campbelltown Framing GalleryOver the years we have been asked to create special framing to house and show sentimental items.  Each of these are unique and take time in planning.  The positioning of each item in the frame or shadow box is important.  Then the right colours, frames and matboard all help to tell the story.

Our Business Framing experience means we can offer different solutions to varying challenges.  Our computer programs enable perfect cuts to the most complex of mats boards.

When framing for businesses we know the job is special.  That certificate may represent years of hard work and the right frame will help tell that story for years to come.

At Campbelltown Framing Gallery we are open six days a week 9 – 5.  We know the urgencies with Business Framing and we are able to adjust timetables to suit.
