The Great Frame Up

Framing, Metal Fabrication & Restoration

About us

We specialize in custom matting, mounting and framing all kinds of art and heirlooms from inexpensive posters to original works or fine art prints to old family photos. Shadowboxes are also created to hold sporting jerseys, vinyl records, medals, pennants and even violins. Gregory, the owner, has been custom framing since 1990. Stacy, the store manager, has been custom framing since 2009. We use only preservation materials such as cotton matting and ultra-violet filtering glass. Many of the frames are made here in Wisconsin and the matting is manufactured in the United States. Because every piece is created by hand, we ask for at least 2 weeks to complete each order. We can rush framing jobs for special occasions in a few days and possibly the same day if we have the materials on hand. Our prices are competitive and you won't find people who care more about the work they do anywhere else. We take great pride in the relationships we have with our customers. No appointment needed, come visit us any time!
