Frame Up in Fremont does a great job
Thursday, December 07, 2006
After some very disappointing experiences at lower-quality chain stores (e.g., Museum Quality Framing), I tried this single-location storefront in Fremont and have been a loyal customer ever since.
Pros: Great quality and variety of frame stock, mat and glass options; knowledgeable and helpful staff (i.e., people with a well-developed aesthetic sense who aren't afraid to have an opinion); reasonable prices; decent turnaround times; great customer service.
Cons: somewhat more expensive than the typical chain store.
As other reviewers have noted, this is also a fun store to visit and browse for gifts, cards and home decor, so it's worth having on your list even if you don't have a framing project.
