What sets Midwest Frame and Gallery apart from other area framers?

  ·  Friendly and professional staff

  ·  The largest selection of frames

  ·  The quickest turn-around time

  ·  Consistent and reasonable pricing

  ·  Work is completed on-site (a full wood shop and work shop are located in the basement)

​

What is the normal process?

The design phase is a collaborative process. Beth and her staff will look at the best ways to achieve your goals.  Is preservation a priority?  Is a shadow box frame required?  Knowing the background story of each piece being framed determines the best approach to each project.   

​

How long will it take to complete my project?

Normal completion time is two weeks.  Some projects can be completed much quicker than two weeks if materials are in-stock.  More complicated projects require extra preparation and labor.
