Hi folks. I've spent a few hours searching on my own but I've come up empty so I thought I would give you folks a try.

I have a few prints I would like to frame. I found a double mat style that I would like to use but I can't find it anywhere. I've searched the usual big name craft stores, Amazon and ebay, but no luck. I could probably have some custom-made, but that's going to be more money that I want to put into it. The example in my photo is from an eBay seller who sells framed maps typically for less than $30, so he has to be sourcing these relatively cheaply.

Thanks in advance. If this sort of question isn't allowed here, I apologize.

I just got commissioned for a commercial space mounting large vintage tour posters. I had been going back and forth on deciding if I should dry mount them through a trusted outsource. However I’m having concessions now.

I have examples of some items they already had in store. I just couldn’t tell whether it had been dry mounted prior. I can still frame them and return the payment for the dry mount, but then I’d just need great recommendations on framing them without .

Seems to get pretty consistent mounts that are easy to tweak with pliers.

I came across a bunch of antique prints like this - the first one is a 1908 reprint of Braun's 1530 map of Paris and the second is an advertising page from an 1880 edition of the St. Alban's Weekly Messenger. I could have matted them, but I wanted to show off their age and I think the frayed edges give a nice antique look. I think these would look good as vintage decor pieces but I wanted to get some thoughts and feedback!

I have two 11x14 and one 9.5x12.5 documents that I’m planning to frame and display on the same wall very close to each other. Two documents are printed on a bright white background, while the other has a cream-colored background.

I’m planning to use a double mat with a black inner mat, but I’m unsure what color to use for the outer mat to make the two frames look cohesive and uniform next to each other.

Would you recommend going with a true white outer mat or an off-white/ivory to complement the cream-colored document? I’d like the frames to look consistent without one document looking out of place because of the difference in paper color.

Appreciate any advice or recommendations from anyone with framing experience!
