i can only make a recommendation about not using ella's coffee and framing on north cap. bad service, terrible coffee. i tried to help a neighborhood bizness out, but their capabilities are decidely subnormal.
Poster art framing
Originally posted by Bagalicious Tangster:I don't know if you are on a timeframe with giving your gifts, but to save from dumping money all at once, I've told myself to frame only one piece per month (I have many to frame as well).
this is the art I'm going with… It's a quandary 'cuz when you have a bunch, it's so much cashola.
Definitely pay the extra for the non-reflective glass. It makes such a huge difference. [checkout the link I have above - "customers show off" - to see the contrast.]
The $150 estimate that chimbly mentioned is also about what I've been paying. I'm gonna check out a new super-Joann Fabrics near my house which I hear also does custom framing. Who knows…While there I may just take up knitting or scrap booking also. :D
Anyone of your music-obsessed friends that gets one of these as a gift will cherish it. I've given a few & they've become prized possessions. Most people just don't think about searching them out, buying them & framing them up.

Originally posted by grotty:Yeah, having the posters framed is going to make a big difference for the gifts – hell, we all have posters in tubes we'll eventually have framed. My fave is the WSC CD release poster 'cuz it's black, red and white (my faves) and has the Carlsonics on it too. ;)

It used to be called Washington Crafts or something like that, but the parent company name is different now. But Ben Franklin and Total Crafts are the same. They use the same suppliers, parts, etc. The only difference may be prices. Ben Franklin stores used to be able to be franchised. I'm not sure if they do that anymore.
Not sure if they have the same store there but if you can find a Ben Franklin store they do very high quality framing and at least once a year they run a 50% sale. The use museum quality materials (acid free paper etc).
