CHOOSING FRAMES, MATS AND SIZES for ART PRINTS - with SHOPPING LINKS

CHOOSING FRAMES, MATS AND SIZES for ART PRINTS - with SHOPPING LINKS

In the Art Card & Print shop, we offer up to 5 sizes of art prints, all standard sizes; 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 12 x 16 and some prints have square options of 8 x 8 and 10 x 10.  You can select a print from a variety of sizes to find the perfect fit for your walls. Because each option adheres to standard frame sizes, you can easily pick out a ready-made frame (with or without mat) to display your artwork. Frames are not included with your purchase, so here are framing recommendations of mat + frame dimensions based on each size of art print I offer on my shop. (There are links below to White, Black and natural Oak frames below from my AMAZON SHOP similar to the diagrams below).


I recommend buying frames online from Target or Michaels, or shop my picks from my AMAZON SHOP LINKS below which offers a wide selection of sizes and materials. IKEA is also one of my top picks for inexpensive frames, but keep in mind that their sizes aren't ALL American-standard. In this blog I am suggesting basic white, black and natural wood with a standard mat size as a starting point. 

Please note: This page contains some affiliate links to my AMAZON SHOP, which means if you purchase an item, I’ll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. 😊

These are  standard frames with standard mats options. Sometimes I like a large mat around a smaller print, I think it makes the art stand out. This page is a starting point with some good options to help you create a gallery wall or a single framed print to your walls or print shelf.
