Picture framing...sensibly priced..suggestions?

nativesloper · April 2008

I'm painting my apartment and one of my beloved wall art pieces was underneath some clothes I had on my sofa. So when I sat down (forcefully) of course I shattered it. The art itself can be preserved so I want to get the whole thing re-framed. Is there a sensibly priced art/picture framing store you can recommend?
Thanks.

i had this same question a month or so ago. if you search in the archives you can find a few threads about it. as i recall, most places in the area got positive reviews. i took a piece to NuNu Gallery on Union but haven't picked it up yet to see the results.

I had a good experience with Prints Charming. not sure if they're inexpensive, but they were very nice and spent lots of time with me.

I wouldn't go to any of the places around here-I am sure they are outrageously priced! i have had things framed at the place on 3rd Avenue, Frame It, for years now and am always very happy with their work. i am sure they must be cheaper than Prints Charming and such (just due to the fact that they aren't paying Park Slope rents!):

Thanks for the info. I've had such sticker shock from both NuNu and San Art that I've been reluctant to frame other pieces. I'll give Frame It a try.
