Why Frame of Mine?

Every frame shop has its own niches and now how’s. But when you find that right framer, like a good hair stylist, tattoo artist, bartender, or even cheese monger, you’ll never want to go anywhere else. We've been a part of the Barracks Row and greater Capitol Hill community for over 40 years, and people have chosen to continually come back to us year after year. But the question still stands, why choose us? Well, you’ll just have to come by and see for yourself.

We're Open By Appointment and Walk-Ins, 6 Days a week!

We’re are open Monday – Saturday and 2 nights a week. You can make an appointment or come by during open hours. We do ask you come at least 30 minutes prior to closing time.

Custom Framing in 2 - 3 Weeks!

Generally orders take between 2 1/2 - 3 weeks, but we often have no problem rushing a project if you need it sooner. (Rush charges apply.) Once your order is completed, you will receive an e-mail and/or phone call/text.

(ALL DUE DATES FOR ORDERS ARE ESTIMATES. IF YOU NEED A GUARANTEED DATE, PLEASE LET US KNOW AT THE TIME OF YOUR ORDER.)

We have standards as high as yours!

We work with you to help make selections that meet your goals; budget, conservation or decor.

We use ONLY acid free mats, top quality frames, and offer full conservation framing (including UV glass, OP3 plexiglass and museum glass).

I'd be hard-pressed to find another shop--of any kind--in DC with a friendlier, more relaxed, and personal, small-town atmosphere. We've been customers here for years and have brought countless projects, always with stellar results. However large or small the project, the terrific staff always give their full attention and sage advice.

They are the best. They have the knowledge and the "eye" to pick the best elements to use for framing artworks. In some cases they have restored and reused the original frames we had because they were chosen by the artist and decorated by him. They did a wonderful job each time. We have never used hte DIY option (because we are lazy) but I'll keep it in mind for straightforward things.
