Have you ever considered re-framing your limited edition print in the living room? If you’re like most people, you haven’t given much thought to the framed artwork in your home. And that’s okay, because a well-made frame design shouldn’t need constant attention.
But it would be wrong to think that once artwork is framed, it’s safe forever. Framing materials and procedures are constantly improving, for one thing, and something framed ten years ago is no longer state-of-the-art. Art also changes over time: it may fade and discolor, or it might cockle and warp. It might even be vulnerable to attacks by pests. A close visual inspection of your art once a year will be enough to spot any potential problems. You can either bring your artwork to Framewoods of Topeka, or ask us what you should look for so you can inspect each piece yourself.
It’s also a good rule of thumb to re-frame artwork once every ten years. Not only does it give you the opportunity to preserve your art with the best in new materials and techniques, it’s also the perfect excuse to choose new matting to match your new decor.
