I made an appointment and brought all of the items with me. The lady (her name escapes me), helped my pick out colors to match the items, frame, glass, etc. I did have to put a payment down when placing the order and made the remainder of the payment when I picked it up. The piece turned out beautiful! Even better than I had imagined.

They are great not just with art but for framing personal items and momentos. I even priced them out against Michaels thinking that the coupons Michaels offers would make it so much cheaper and it really doesn't. They simply over price you any way and then give you the discounts and Sidney was a just a little less than Michaels coupon price and I can assure you Sidney's quality is superior.

After discovering some unframed Japanese needlepoint in my parents' house, I was eager to have it…read morere-framed at Magnolia House Custom Framing in downtown Fuquay Varina, NC. I showed Ms. Shirley what I had, and she helped me select a suitable matting and frame that complemented the style and theme of the waterfall picture. As that nature scene reminds me of my grandparents, it has great sentimental value and hangs in a place of honor now. The value of her expertise in restoring this picture means a lot to me and was definitely worth the cost. I have another nostalgic scene I hope to have reframed soon too.

My watercolor was last framed in 1963 for my Grandparents who have since passed away. It is the…read moreonly thing of theirs I have. It has hung in my house and the frame was all wrong, but I did not know why. I had wanted to reframe it, but I felt if I did not know what I wanted why bother? Shirley immediately explained what I could not articulate regarding the relationship of the frame to the art. She helped me to work through possible selections to find what I liked and helped me to understand why it worked. She showed me selections that on the surface I would have said no way, that frame is ugly, but when she paired it up with another frame it allowed the art to sing. Highlighting the art is the function of the frame. I really respect the fact that she never said I like this one best, or I don't like that one, but helped me to see each with my art and what feature each enhanced. She was full of tricks including showing me how to hold my hands to fool my brain into seeing what it would look like with different frame setups. Shirley is an artist, not only in traditional art but also in the art of framing. This is where you want to go with anything that has meaning or value to you to be framed. This is a place that will help you find what you like or want when you don't know what you want. You can trust her with your heirloom because it never leaves her store and she understands what it means to you. You will never get this kind of help or service in a chain location. This store exemplifies why small businesses are the best. I am a little gushy here, but I am more than pleased with the final result.

Very nice people, and you will never find a more interesting and varied selection of frames. Highly recommend

The team helped me select a frame that beautifully complements the piece and used museum-grade glass that prevents any glare. The result is stunning! It's an investment - but worth every penny.

They said they could repair the artwork, informed me that the media we used might cause some wrinkles in the work once framed. We were given pricing and sent an invoice though email with allowed me to complete the transaction at home. The repair is pictured below. I am kind of in awe of their work. They told us they would display the work in their window - my son keeps talking about it. He was surprised and delighted to see it and we can't wait to hang it up today. Thank you so much for such a great experience, service and product.
