Girl with red balloon framing options, by pumpkintico on Sept 26, 2020 13:13:18 GMT 1, Hi everyone,
Firstly, I'd like to thank everyone who replied to me in my first post about removing my GWRB from its current frame.
I'm wondering if anyone has some examples of framed GWRB to give me some ideas for when the time comes to reframe. Any photos would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Not sure which I prefer - neither are mine !
First one is floated, in a deep box frame with white spacers.
Second one is floated within a mat frame - all black.
Mods - you can lock this thread

Girl with red balloon framing options, by ab3 on Sept 26, 2020 13:56:49 GMT 1, When I got one framed back in 2005 I went with a mount board (as that's what the framer recommend and I was doing with other prints) and a black (Ikea) Frame (print only cost ยฃ75 so seemed a waste to spend money on an expensive frame at the time).
After a while and the value going up, I put in museum glass to protect it. And a while after that I decided to change the frame to a white frame. I'm still really liking the simplicity of the white frame.
Make sure you post a pic here of what you decided in the end.

Girl with red balloon framing options, by pumpkintico on Sept 26, 2020 16:44:12 GMT 1, thanks. I like the white. Do you think an old fashioned gold frame (like Love is in the Bin) is a bit naff?!
