Customer service was great and the frame selection was much bigger than I have seen in other…read moreplaces. The lady helping me was knowledgeable and friendly. The only reason why I'm giving this four stars is it's EXPENSIVE. I was a bit wary that this store only had two dollar signs on yelp considering it is located on Magazine Street, but I decided to give it a try. Yup, it is very expensive. I have not found a way to edit how many dollar signs yelp gives to an establishment, which makes me think that the store itself is in charge of its price point on yelp. This place deserves four or five dollar signs, definitely NOT two!! Work is amazing, so you will have to decide if it is worth it for yourself.

I have a framing addiction -- my art is an extension of me, and I love having it beautifully and…read moreuniquely displayed. When I moved to New Orleans 2 years ago, I needed a new framer, and found the girls at Magazine Street Framing right off the bat. I never looked back. They are kind, patient (they need it with me -- I always want to look at all my options!), professional, accommodating, and VERY reasonably priced. I can't say enough nice things about them. I've gotten about 10 things framed there, and everything, from my Ladies' Choice posters (which is a downright STEAL) to my most prized painting, has turned out perfectly. Now I'm moving again, and I am so sad to say goodbye to them. Thank you for all your help these last two years!

I had this shell art of my labrabull Antoine Boudreaux made by an Etsy artist. It was supposed to…read morebe a Christmas ornament but since Antoine enjoys destroying all things fragile, I figured I'd better get it placed in a shadow box then up on the wall, away from his active paws & jaws. I picked Frame City & Art Gallery at random because it was near my house. But what a delightful surprise! I'm really bad at colors, so Mr. Saito kindly suggested some frames & backgrounds that would make the shell art pop. He also gave me advice on where to buy natto, which is my favorite Japanese breakfast food! About 2 weeks later, Mrs. Saito cheerfully presented me with the finished product which is pictured below. Beautiful work! I will be returning to this store for all my framing needs!

This is the most magical and comprehensive art supplies store I've ever seen. If you can't find…read moresomething here, then it doesn't exist. So many nooks and crannies filled with excellent art supplies - from student/beginner level to premium artist grade. A lot of items were 10% off, some more of a discount so very affordable. The store is run by a wonderfully sweet couple and the staff is very knowledgeable. I heard a customer asking for something obscure and the staff took them right to it, told them how to use it and suggested other items too. You can get lost in the aisles and really get your creative juices flowing. Or come in for something specific. The aisles are very organized by type of product. If you need any art supplies, or even if you don't, this is a treasure and a must visit.

They do have quite a selection of home goods, furniture and decorations, but all of it is quite over priced in my opinion. There is a large shared parking lot, and the store is in the middle of a strip mall. Walking in, you are not greeted. The aisles are wide, with plenty of room to move around. In the back is an area where you can have someone frame a photo or artwork. They do have some kitsch, and they have a large selection of my favorite laundry additive, so I do have a place close to come for that. They have a large selection for crafting items of all types, and a selection of clearance items that are the better part of 2 aisles. They do not have much of a selection of local crafts, which is something I would like to see locally owned stores having, so that is disappointing. Most of the items are mass produced. It's nice to look at, but there are better values to be made elsewhere, even at the national chain stores.
