In the business of garbing walls and eternalizing memories since 1988, Frame 2000 and Frames Galore boast a wide range of services and walls coated in creative frames, mattes, glass, and other artful materials. Whether they’re shadowboxing a banana, needleworking a design of a banana, or adding an Andy Warhol effect to a photo of someone holding a banana, the resident framing enthusiasts operate in a timely and surgically precise fashion. Framing rates vary greatly depending on materials and sizing; however, framed paintings, drawings, certificates, and diplomas with black wood frames, matting, and glass cost about $100. Clients can frame a 24”x36” print, poster, or photograph for about $79, or get a 27”x40” movie-size poster with metal frame, dry mount, and glass for roughly $89.
Today’s deal also gets snapshooters large-format prints of art and photographs, providing parents with 100-year fade-proof proof of vacations, newborns, graduations, and clouds shaped like Abe Lincoln. Preserve a 16”x20” artist canvas stretched on a 3/4”x3/4” bar ($100), or adorn walls with 20”x30” matte prints in a basic frame ($100). Beyond custom services, both framing locations host many locally inspired pieces, including works generated by visionary Venice Beach artists and photographers. The collection manages to capture the coast without trapping any whale sharks in the net of imaginative realism, with pieces available as giclée prints starting as low as $45 each.
Though Frame 2000 and Frames Galore sometimes feature a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
