You're Cheap - Frame Yourself

Found some cool vintage photos in your grandmother's basement? Finally hit up the artists on Union Square and scored a hip print? Your frame should never cost more than the art in it - so for those of us who consider a $50 painting splurging, get online and check out the American Frame website. In a step-by-step process pick out your frame color, size, design, measure your mat and glass - all for usually under $30 including delivery. (For those who don't know, going to a frame shop can cost you hundreds.) The frame (unless very large) is delivered almost assembled and just requires you do twist a few screws.
