Do you have beautiful works of art you’d like to hang in your home, your workplace or your gallery? Now you can find the perfect frames for them without having to go anywhere. With mobile picture framing, a professional comes to your front door to show you through a range of framing options.

The right frame complements a picture superbly, accentuating its subtle details and unique features. Framing is a cost-effective way to protect your paintings and photographs, preserve their resale value, add a personal touch and help them make a strong impression on the walls of your house, art gallery or office. Mobile framing doesn’t restrict your choice to just photographs or paintings either – you can have your favourite football jersey or band poster framed as well.

But what if you’ve never framed a picture before? How do you choose the right frame, the kind that showcases your picture at its finest rather than clashing with or overpowering it? Here are some tips from Mobile Frames 2 U.

How to Choose the Right Frame for your Picture:

Look to the art for guidance

Choose a frame that suits the colours and the style of the artwork, but be discerning. Picking a colour that’s featured prominently in the artwork often works really well, but depending on the tone, a contrasting approach can also succeed. It’s best not to get too hung up on matching the frame colour to the colours in the picture and instead focus on what kind of frame serves the picture the best. A lighter frame is best for simple art while a darker one usually suits more formal or elaborate pieces. Make sure your frame colour is different to your mat colour in order to avoid drawing people’s eyes to the frame rather than to the art.

Consider the wall colour

You don’t want a picture frame that’s the same colour as your wall. That’s one area in which a little contrast is in order. It helps to match your frame with your wall paint’s undertones. Gold frames are delightfully suited to warm undertones while silver works best with cool ones.

Consider the mat colour

The colour and appearance of the mat board has a bigger influence on the look and feel of the artwork than many people give it credit for. One of the benefits of this part is you can experiment with different colour mat boards until you find the one that works best.

Think about the décor

Consider where the picture is going to be placed in a room that’s already decorated, and how it will complement the overall style of the room. If your room is rustic and down-to-earth, a wooden frame will fit right in. A subtle, modern or minimalist frame will work in a room that’s sparsely decorated in the same style. Contrary to popular belief, not every frame in a room has to match. Matching frames are a reliable way to create cohesion, but mixing them up makes for an exciting contrast too.
Embrace black, white and colour – as long as they work

Black, white and colours: all have their place and can be perfect for a room depending on how you use them. Both black and white are classic shades for an elegant look, but depending on your taste, a frame with a vibrant colour can really make a frame come alive.
