Custom Framing Services

Custom framing is much more than four pieces of wood surrounding a piece of art.

Personalizing your home or work space with custom framing is a great way to express your personality and to enjoy your surroundings. While others can go to the store and buy the same sofa, tables and lamps that you have, it is highly unlikely anyone will ever have the exact same custom framing as you.

If you would like to have a home filled with personality and one-of-a-kind treasures, custom framing can easily help you achieve it. Many people just have things like art, photos and diplomas framed, but nearly anything can be framed in some fashion. Scott-Milo can create special frame designs to address your unique style and space, to provide the best framing solutions for each item you bring to them.

Objects are often some of the most meaningful things you can frame. Whether you choose something passed down from an ancestor, a souvenir from a special trip, or you find something interesting at a flea market, they can all be framed to become conversation pieces in your home or office.

The main difference when framing an object versus art is to make sure you choose a frame moulding that is deep enough to contain the object, glass, backing and whatever else will go into it. Aside from that, many of the same framing materials used for anything else can be used for objects also.

Imagine champagne without bubbles, a bird without a song, Paris without croissants, a ring without a diamond, a rainy day without umbrellas, Park Avenue without taxis, peanut butter without jelly and a little black dress without heels. It is just as impossible imagining a beautiful work of art without a fabulous frame from Scott-Milo.

Regardless of what you choose to have framed for your home, whether it is a favorite piece of art, a mirror, an object inherited from an ancestor or anything else, it will add interest to your space.
