Q: Is it worth framing?
A: We find that when most people ask this question, they have something that they want to frame but aren’t sure because it’s not something that has a lot of monetary value, or it’s something that they’ve had a long time and it’s gotten a little beat up. Art is something that you enjoy. If it’s something that you’d like to look at, then we will help you find a great way to display it.
