I always thought a privately-owned frame shop in Olmos Park would cost much more than a big box…read morestore. I was wrong. I went to Michael's at the height of their sale: Buy 1 Get 2 Free off framing. I had six things to frame, but it was going to take 3 weeks to get my items back. On a whim, I stopped by Alpha Kat Framing and met Kat. I loved the individual attention she gives, and how she takes the time to make sure that I'm hanging my frames correctly -- she always makes a template out of cardboard for me. The best part? Her regular pricing is the same as Michael's sale prices -- and she returns your items much faster. With Alhpa Kat, you don't have to wait weeks for your items to be framed -- and you can taking advantage of her savings all year long, and not have to wait for a big box sale. Plus, I personally prefer to support small businesses and keep my money in San Antonio.

I would certainly recommend paying Kat a visit if you want your art to look its best hanging on your wall.

I've been a client of Cardinal Framers since they were on RR12 on the edge of town--think my mother…read morefound them while I was in college. I've taken them various photos, art prints, paintings, old magazine advertisements, even some feathers over the years. I frame most of my pieces to showcase the artwork, not to match decor, and they always have great ideas for frames and mats. Whether I go with their ideas or my preconceived notions, the pieces have always turned out beautifully. They are probably not the cheapest option in three counties, but they are professional. I have always been satisfied with their work. You can choose different grades of glass from plain to conservation quality. There are a wide range of prices on framing materials so you don't have to break the bank, and I used some of their bargain precut frames for small things in the past. They complete work in a reasonable amount of time and contact me when any project is ready for pickup. The married couple who run it have always been friendly, and the new lady (assistant or family, I don't know) was very efficient on this last project. She had picked a couple frames out to start and when I showed her the kitchen for which the labels were intended she quickly shifted gears (probably the first time in my life anyone associated me with the word "modern" out loud). She also called me by name when I went to pick up my piece today although it has been a while--I always notice that because it is a skill I know I lack. They also have loose posters/prints available for purchase. They have a good eye if you tell them what you are aiming for--I've admired lots of the waiting projects for people with clearly different tastes than me but which are completed flawlessly--plus it is clear they enjoy their work. I look forward to each visit, which I can't say about every business. I dread the day they retire or move because I like knowing I have a place I trust.
