Picture Framing

March 11, 2014 By admin

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.

Custom Mirrors

March 11, 2014 By admin

A custom mirror from Campbelltown Framing Gallery allows you create a personalised mirror – and with our combinations of frames, style and colour your choices are endless.  Now, your selection of mirrors is not limited to what the store has in stock.

The wrong mirror can change the decor of a home.  And very often a mirror is bought without taking design into account.  Few people know that professional framers can create mirrors to suit your home – whether that be for the lounge, hallway, bedrooms or bathrooms.

With a custom mirror from Campbelltown Framing Gallery you make the decision on the size, shape and frame.  You are welcome to bring an image of where the mirror will be hung and we can help you create a style to suit that area.

Choose the right frame.

When buying a ready cut mirror in a store a gilded frame may look great amongst other classic items but once you get it home it loses its appeal.  The shape and style might be wrong for the room.  Whereas a custom mirror from Campbelltown Framing Gallery will remove the guesswork.

Custom Mirrors – Measuring

Before choosing a design and size it helps to measure where your mirror will be placed – and how much mirror space you can work with.  You will also need to take into account the size of the frame when measuring.  The bigger the mirror, the bigger the frame.  An easy way to do this is to cut paper to the size you want and tape it to the wall.  You’ll then know if that is the right size.  One large mirror may suffice or perhaps two smaller ones might look better.

Custom Mirrors – Frames

Cynthia inspects moldings at the Campbelltown Framing GalleryWe have hundreds of picture frame mouldings at Campbelltown Framing Gallery and your custom mirrors can be framed with any of these. Customers mostly choose gold gilded, silver gilded or wood grained frames.  Once you have chosen the size it will be cut to suit – the larger frames are usually 4 – 6 mm thick for safety reasons.

You are welcome to visit our studio and workshop where we are happy to provide a quote.
