We specialize in . . .
You name it . . . we’ll frame it!
Sports Jerseys
Here’s an example of a hockey jersey we recently framed. Why keep your souvenir sports jerseys hidden away in a closet? Take them out of hiding and show them off. Custom framing not only looks great on the wall but also protects your treasures from loss and damage. We can help you create a framing design that will make your man cave really pop. Or, if your sports fan needs a little nudge, maybe a gift card from The Frame Shop is just the push you need to get him started.
Custom Mirrors
We build custom mirrors to perfectly fit your space and complement your style, whether it’s traditional, contemporary, rustic, urban industrial . . . or eclectic. With over 1,000 frame samples to choose from, we’re sure to have what you’re dreaming of. Why settle for readymade when we can turn your vision into reality? Stop by and check out our huge selection of framing samples.
Shadow Boxes & Plexi Boxes
When the object to be framed is 3-dimensional and too deep for a traditional frame moulding to accommodate, we create a “shadow box” or a “plexi box”. A shadow box, as seen above, is an extra-deep frame moulding (or combination of stacked mouldings) in which the insides of the frame are lined with either mat board or fabric to coordinate with the overall frame design.
A plexi box is just that . . . a box made out of clear acrylic (or plexiglass) into which the object is mounted for maximum visibility. In many cases, the mounting of the object presents more of a challenge than the box itself, with the conflicting criteria of being minimally invasive, visually integrated, and yet sufficiently strong to support the weight of the object over time. Framers are not magicians, but we can be very creative! Below we used a plexi box cover to account for the added depth of placing the police cap horizontally in order to display it properly.
Poster Specials
We offer special package pricing for those occasions when you may not need or want the full-blown custom framing treatment (and price tag). Whether you have a poster, a garage sale find, or maybe your child’s latest creation, we can help you get those up on the wall for a modest price with our poster specials.
Poster specials include a custom-built metal frame in several color options (see photo below), regular clear glass, and professional assembly, fitted with a wire, a complimentary hook, and are ready to hang.

Photo Printing and Framing
For many of us, our phone is our camera. Phones these days take some fabulous pictures, and we take our phones everywhere. Have a great photo on your phone that you would love to print and frame? We can print up to 16 x 20, depending on the photo quality. Email it to us at framers@nvframes.com. Let us know what size you would like it and when you will be in to design your frame. We'll have printed and waiting for you. Or design it yourself on our Design Studio page and send it to us for a quote.
