    4' by 4' original abstract painting

    Kat in the framing department was a gem! She made picking & agreeing on the right frame choice for our artwork easy and fun. And the 60% off coupon didn't hurt either. We highly recommend her to help with all your art framing needs.

    Nice variety of ceramic and pottery supplies

    Great variety of art supplies near Tempe/Phoenix/Mesa area of AZ. I was excited to pick up some ceramic glazes and other ceramic tools which is very very lacking in my hometown of Honolulu HI. Will definitely bd stopping by again whenever I am back in town!

    For all my Artists in the game... you know this place.... for Hobbyist & Craft Makers... you know the others. When it comes to a robust selection of art supplies targeted for artists, this "IS" the spot in Tempe. Found what I was looking for when it came to stretch canvas boards in various sizes to accommodate a lot of African and Cuban artwork I recently collected. One particular canvas was extremely challenging so I decided to have it custom framed. The time frame said about 7-10 days and then I got the call ready for pickup in the window. Upon pick up, I was very pleased with what they were able to do with the canvas and more (more being the enclosed backing and hanging attachments. Not sharing pics as it's a little "risque" for some but it's perfect. Since picking up my photo, I've been back a few times for misc items.

    Wow! What a great store for art supplies. I am taking a watercolor class and wanted to look at new supplies. Great customer service!

    Great spot for art supplies, always much better than the other crafts stores in my opinion. I always loved that Blick offers student discounts. However, keep in mind that once you are no longer a student, your account may not be found. At least that was my experience. Nonetheless, I found all that I was looking for. There only seemed to be one person working at the time, but thankfully I didn't need help looking around as they were busy manning the register.

Among them, Affordable Framing in Tempe stood out by a mile, thanks to Kirtis, the owner. From the moment I walked in, Kirtis was incredibly knowledgeable yet personable with a sense of humor to match my own. He was honest and straightforward, taking the time to explain how the costs aligned with the steps needed to complete my project. His genuine interest in my portrait was evident, and it made the entire experience feel personalized and trustworthy. Not only was his quote lower than most of the other companies, but he also completed the project in half the time others had projected. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and the entire process was smooth and efficient. I already have several future framing projects in mind, and I know exactly where I'll be going -- directly to Affordable Framing. No more wasting time shopping around across Phoenix. The best work always comes from someone who takes the time to understand their customers and asks the right questions to ensure the scope of work matches their needs. I couldn't be happier with how this project turned out. It's now the centerpiece of my entryway, and everyone who visits is talking about it. I'm thrilled with the outcome and grateful for the exceptional service I received. I'm happy to share the completed piece below -- I'm still blown away!

    This shop is under new ownership and isn't as good anymore. I have had many items framed there…read moreover the years but my most recent experience with the new owners was not too great. 1. I took a large print to be rematted. The new owner tried to sell me everything he had, such as a new frame (because this one has a scratch), new glass (because this one glares), triple matting (which I went for). I just felt like I was the subject of too much selling. It wasn't pleasant. 2. I requested to have the print delivered and hung. The owner said he knew a company who could do that and we agreed on a specific date. On the morning of that date, I called to find out when the person would be coming. The owner: "Oh, I was going to call you. That company doesn't return phone calls." I wonder if he really was planning to call me because in the two week period between order and delivery date, he never did. Needless to say, the picture didn't get delivered or hung that day. The owner did set me up with another company who delivered it, hung it and did a fine job. But I think I will find a new frame shop.
