Box Framing
If you have a football shirt or 3D item, you will require a box frame. We have a wide range of suitable picture frame mouldings with wood and card fillets to match. We can comfortably fit items of up to 5cm depth in a box frame. If you need something deeper, an acrylic display frame may be required.
General Styles
Creative Picture Framing offers the most comprehensive choice of picture frames, with thousands of picture framing mouldings to choose from. We have all manner of shapes, sizes, and finishes. We hand-cut and make our frames on the premises from stock mouldings but there are many more frames available to order. Our team will always help you make the right choice. Here is a tiny sample.
Some common items to put in a frame are; photographs, certificates, posters, stamps, paintings in oils, watercolour or acrylics. We have framed horses reigns, babies shoes, spoons, keys, hats, gloves, and even a stone lion’s head. With our expert knowledge we can frame almost anything you’d like, just bring it in for a free consultation.
Traditional Styles
Swept Frames
Handcrafted, classic and modern frames for oil paintings old and new. English and continental styles in a variety of finishes using a base wood structure, added ornamental motifs, applied gesso, and a variety of painted and gilt finishes. “The best things come to those who wait”, this process takes a number of weeks it is a slow handcrafted process that cannot be rushed.
For added luxury and quality, real gold and silver leaf finishes are available but we also offer glorious colour where required.

Contemporary Styles
Acrylic Display cases
We can craft free standing or wall mounted acrylic display frames and boxes for any item. We have created displays for all manner of items, including Kimonos and sculptures. Your box may require a base or plinth to sit on, we have these available in wood finishes or made from acrylic in contemporary colours. Each is crafted to your individual needs.
Canvas Stretchers and Stretching
We can prepare your canvas painting or fabric by stretching it on to conventional pine stretcher bars, or deep gallery style stretchers. We will always recommend the required cross support bars, full cross or H supports to prevent warping.
Tray Frames
For standard and deep canvas paintings a tray frame is the height of fashion, often referred to as float frames we have a good selection from which to choose.
