8x12 Frames?? - 12-14-2008, 01:56 PM


I have a client who does not want her photos to be cropped by a 8x10 size, so does anyone know where you can buy an 8x12 frame at in the DFW area or online??

Does it have to be in stock? I know that Hobby Lobby will order any size you want. Also, you can take a standard frame and have the mat cut to the 8X12 size.

+1 on Aaron Brothers. They have quite a selection and the frames look really nice. We've bought several when they've had buy one/get one for a penny sales (basically 50 percent off).

Tape two 4x6's together.

Actually, I think I've seen some at Michael's.

Actually, I'd suggest matting it to a "regular size" .. maybe to 11x14 and then put it in an 11x14 frame. :)
