Does anyone know good places to get framing done? I want to frame the autographs I got from this past weekend's Supercon, but I'm having trouble finding places to do it that are relatively inexpensive. Here is what I'm wanting: A shadowbox for Paige's autographs. The idea is to be able to house the title, the figure, VIP pass and ticket, and photos like so:  A shadowbox for Daniel Bryan's autographs. Looking to house the figure, the autographed photo, VIP pass and ticket, and photo like so:  Obviously, they aren't drawn to scale and are horribly misaligned. I'm just trying to show what I need done. If anyone can point me in a good direction, I would be greatful |

You can always try Michael's or Hobby Lobby. But I recommend waiting until you find a coupon or a framing sale. Honestly, it will be more expensive than you want no matter where you go. Especially for what you want done.

Think I should opt for something else? I'm open to suggestions. I just want a good way to display everything.

I found a website that has a shadow box large enough to fit what I need for Paige's items--except the photo of me and her. I can always add that in a frame next to it.
Do you think getting a special matting that divides the case and purchasing the pre-made case would be more expensive than ordering a custom case?

If you don't have experience framing and matting, doing it yourself isn't going to look good. Your idea sounds good and will look great. It will just cost you the money. My recommendation would be to save the money to have it professionally done. It will look much better. Michaels will frequently have half off sales for framing so that's something to look out for. |
