Custom Frame at Michaels

Has anyone used them for a custom frame? I have an unusual size photograph.

yes
definitely use a coupon though because custom framing is not cheap!

you might be better off buying a standard frame size and just asking them to cut you a custom size matte

I have and I agree- use a coupon. I picked the cheapest they had and it was still almost $300 but it came out very nice :)

No, because they're a rip off even with a coupon. I find AC Moore to be much more reasonable and they do a great job.

I go to a small local shop that does this. You get someone who is great at matching the photo (or diploma or whatever) to a frame or they can match decor. The owner of the business helps me. I'd go this route before Michaels and I do shop at Michaels for other things.

Yes we used them to frame a large wedding picture. Just had them reframe it as the glass was broken during a move. Def use a coupon.

Yes!!! We framed one of our huge wedding photos there with s supposedly 70% off coupon. So went we asked about the price it was still very high (over $400). So I asked how that was possible, since I was taking 70% off of the price posted behind the counter. I was told "oh, the 70% doesn't come off of THAT price" but they couldn't seem to tell me what price it would come off of.

I don't know where you should go, but I wouldn't recommend Michaels. Total false advertising. Chat Icon
