Custom Framing · Since 1994
The Artof the Frame
Every piece has a story.
Custom framing for art, photos, shadowboxes, mirrors, and memorabilia. Thirty years on the same Ghent corner. Preserve the moments that matter the most.
Why Custom Framing
The right framechanges everything.
We frame everything from original paintings, prints, mirrors and decorative pieces to family photos, diplomas and keepsakes. In a military community like ours, we also create custom framing and shadow boxes for medals, uniforms, flags, and service memorabilia. Each project is approached with care and attention to detail, resulting in a finished piece that is both beautiful and built to last.
