I went into Tsuga Fine Art earlier this year for a custom framing job. I was warmly welcomed, and…read morethe framing options were clearly explained to me. I specifically requested that the frame/mat not cover the low "g" (see photos) on my drawing, and this request was superbly honored. I remember that the time frame for the custom framing job seemed reasonable, and that I felt that the price was reasonable also. The price was around $200. I drew this drawing/doodle last year when my friend Sammar came over to my house for a virtual water tasting with Water Sommelier Martin Riese, but Martin cancelled the virtual water tasting at the last minute due to a personal emergency, so Sammar and I chatted and doodled spontaneously. I do consider this drawing and writing to be a doodle, and I would not have considered framing it of my own accord, but my Brother / Best Friend Ryan, who currently works as a Flight Nurse on a Helicopter (Critical Care Nursing and Emergency Transport Nursing) saw my drawing and he said that he really liked it, and he told me that he wanted it framed for his Birthday. I know that I can do much better with both drawing and calligraphy, so I wasn't sure how Tsuga's staff would react to this drawing/doodle when I'm sure that they deal with professional artists frequently. I didn't draw this with any intention to ever frame it. However, the staff member who handled my custom framing order was very sweet and genuine, and she had a very positive reaction to my drawing as soon as I showed it to her. Ryan loved his Birthday present. I don't remember the exact time frame that the Tsuga staff member said that they would have it ready in, I think it was 3 weeks or so. But I do remember that the custom framing job was done well in advance of Ryan's Birthday, and I also remember that Tsuga completed it within the time frame that they had promised me, which I appreciated. I am very happy with my experience at Tsuga Fine Art, and I would recommend them for custom framing. I would return any time if I ever have anything else that I would like to get custom framed.

He is an artist in his own right - all of his cuts were exact and the spacing of my photos was impeccable. The value of his work is unparalleled. You will not find another framer who will do such a superb job at a very fair price. Lastly, I must mention his turn around - very quickly done. I can't say he would be able to do all projects as fast as he did mine but it was finished within two days, at most three. Simply incredible!

I've been going to this store for a while, and so far, everyone has been pretty nice. My daughter…read moreand I recently started learning how to make jewelry, and today I called to ask whether they carry anything suitable for working with pearls. The woman I spoke with did provide the information I was looking for, but her tone came across as unnecessarily short and somewhat snobbish. She made comments along the lines of, "You should just bring your pearl here so we can look," and, "You don't even know the names of the parts you're looking for." I understood what she was trying to imply--that bringing the pearl in would make it easier for them to identify the appropriate components--but there's definitely a more helpful and welcoming way to phrase that, especially when someone is new to jewelry making and simply trying to learn. I'll continue going to the store, as my previous experiences have been positive, but this interaction was disappointing.

The folks at Artisan Custom Framing were immediately able to help with my walk in and they are very friendly and helpful. We picked out frames and glass fairly quickly and they were able to find a good fit for my pieces that was within my budget. Turn around time was about three weeks which was expected and worth the wait! We got our pieces back and hung them immediately. We are so in love and happy with how they turned out. I have a few more pieces that will need re-framing and I will also be bringing those here. They did an awesome job!

This year my mother passed away. Receiving the beloved heirlooms from her home was bittersweet. I…read morelove the pretty things that have been handed down for generations, but losing my mother was a high price to pay. Upon receipt, a couple of the items had been damaged in shipping. I took two of them to Framer vs Framer. A marriage certificate of my fifth-greatgrandparents. My grandmother's college degree and honor roll pin. These are priceless treasures and I am honored to now call them my own. When I turned the items in, I was given a date four weeks later. That felt like an eternity, but for what I wanted it was reasonable. The desk person told me they were quite backed up, and I understood and agreed. After four weeks had passed, I telephoned to ask if my items were ready for pickup. No, they are running behind. They will call me. Alright, I don't like it, but I will wait. These things happen. Lots of people are short staffed these days. I get it. Another four weeks goes by and again I telephone. This time I spoke to a different person who was very rude to me. She told me "WE will call YOU when it's ready. We have people who have been waiting for their orders since June." [It is now December 16 and I turned in my order October 20] If that is true, why didn't you tell me that when I turned in my order? At least it would have been honest. I can deal with late but honest. The employee continued, "We don't even have your frames in yet. We ordered them, but they haven't come in." Oh, alright. Lots of people are experiencing a supply chain issue. I don't like her attitude, but whatever. Interestingly, I received a phone call from the company about two hours later, telling me my order was ready. Wow. Really? Maybe there's a miscommunication amongst staff, but the way that woman spoke to me was unacceptable. The work is fine as far as I can tell, but I will never ever return or recommend Framer vs Framer. This is unfortunate. I regularly choose small businesses over big box stores. I could have taken my money to anybody. I've used them before and had satisfactory results. I would have been disappointed if the order had taken another four weeks, but I'm a reasonable person if the clerks are at least courteous. I think most folks are.

So I was thrilled when Jade called me back in about an hour and I was able to pick it up, take it to my meeting, and present the gift.
