Picture for a frame, by edmonds on Feb 23, 2008 11:18:25 GMT 1, Hi,
A bit of a backwards request, I know most people ask for framing advice for there prints but I would like some advice on a print for a frame.
I have been given this frame this week its inside picture size is 40cm x 70cm approx 15" x 28" with a 5"inch frame.
None of my current prints or canvases fit as its a bit of an odd size, the closest piece I have that fits is Copyright let go but it will leave a huge gap at top and bottom.
Can anyone give me some advice on any prints that may fit as it would be a shame to waste it.
Many thanks
Ben

That would fit perfect and very nice print. Do you know how much it is off the top of your head?
Anymore Ideas out there?

Yeah, thats what I think. Talk to misterframeman on this forum. Cant see why it cant be cut down.

Picture for a frame, by edmonds on Feb 23, 2008 13:00:42 GMT 1, I will speak to a framer and see waht kind of cost is involved in cutting the frame down.
Would prefer the easy option of a print to fit as im lazy and impatient.
Any artists on here who would fancy creating a piece to fit???

I think the size is about 30x60 cm
Maybe a bit small for that huge frame, but a possibility!
