A few years ago I used Peterson Picture and got a few jobs done with them. I can't say I got exactly what I wanted but it was good enough and they are good for me because I live near by. I really needed to get some artwork framed this year and I called but no one answer. I understand they are busy so I thought I would just drive over in the middle of the day with one of the pieces and see if they have a little time and I can not find parking and now I'm running out of time. The painting is too big to not be able to park somewhat close but there is such little parking now. You can't pull over. Everything is different in this area now. Even if I could find a parking spot it is so dangerous to try to get anything out of a vehicle with moving traffic so close and on the other side of the car is moving traffic as well. It's so crazy over here. I will go somewhere safer. read more

As always, stellar work. Just got this original 1933 World's Fair poster framed. The silver works so well with the art deco aesthetic of the piece. We're thrilled to see it tie our basement family room together! read more

This place is great! I walked in not knowing exactly what I wanted. John was a great help. He showed me a few different options and made recommendations based on what he felt would compliment my item the best. I am very happy with the end result. Thank you! read more

Peterson did an amazing job custom framing a screen print that was an heirloom from my grandparents. Brian worked with my husband and I and presented us with all the options and worked to get us exactly what we were envisioning to make the piece look great! We moved and he even packed the piece up for us nicely for travel! We felt well taken care of and the print looks great!! read more

I love love love Peterson Picture! I had a Monet print from Paris that had been rolled up in storage for years. And when I finally moved into an apartment with more wall space, it was time to get it framed. Yelp led me to Peterson Picture, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome! Mike's recommendations for framing were spot on with both the period and the original framing of the piece. He seriously knows his stuff! And the finished product is everything I'd hoped and more in quality and looks. I'd tried to get the print framed once before, but the odd shape (long and skinny) had made things difficult, materials- and price-wise. Here, neither were an issue. Plexiglass helped keep it lightweight, and Yelp check-in gives you an extra 15% off. Now, hanging in my apartment, I just wish I'd gotten the print framed sooner! And I'm already brainstorming up what else to bring here for framing. read more

Had the best experience here! Very friendly, very professional, and took great care of my piece. Plenty of selection for framing; this will be my new framing place! read more

Peterson Picture - Framing Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

First and foremost, they framed a print for me and we are thrilled with the finished product. Top marks there. This was a bit of a saga. When I first picked up the piece from PP I noticed a small flaw in the print and promptly blamed them for the damage. However, they were quick to show me photos evidencing that the damage was present before I dropped it off. I was embarrassed, but they could not have been nicer and more professional about the whole thing. The artist replaced the damage print and PP re-framed the new piece at no charge. Courtesy and good communication throughout. They do terrific work and take great pride in their craft. This is your go-to frame shop. read more

The frame & matting they recommended was perfect. And they did a top-notch job! My wife loves her Valentine's Day / housewarming gift! Thank you! read more

This was my first experience with Peterson and they left me completely satisfied. I was able to work with their team on both the printing of a digital photo image as well as the mounting and framing plan. In the past I have needed to go to two different sources for this. What wowed me was the fast turn around time. I had my printed and framed photo in my hands in five days. And pricing was very reasonable, with no extra charge for anything. Larry N.

These guys are beyond amazing! I brought a giant mirror in, with hopes that they could help me figure out a way to move the clips on it. They explained the issues, instead of just taking on a task and not ruining the piece. They then allowed me to leave it there so they could ponder on solutions. I then received drawing on the pictures I sent with some amazing deep questions. At this point, I realized that I was making others spend too much time on this silliness. And they took it SOOOO seriously which my hopeful self could not be more thankful for. This was not my first amazing experiance with them, but it was a reminder on how unbelievabley kind and thougtful they are to try to help and do things right. read more

I've been working with Peterson Picture for about a year and I couldn't speak highly enough of them!

You won't find better anywhere.... these guys set the standard!! read more

Great experience. Was able to work directly with the team there to choose exactly what I wanted. Straight forward pricing and cost was definitely a consideration. It was VERY affordable.

Gabriel came to our home first to consult & discuss how the framing of these very large & special pc of art. They were very helpful & very efficient.. the framing came out every bit as we had hoped foe. We are very pleased & will gladly continue using their services! read more

Fabulous custom mirror and wonderful customer service! I received a beautiful mirror for my home. Peterson is not only well priced, but they have a wonderful selection of frames. They also arranged delivery and installation of mirror since it is oversized. Mike kept me informed of lead time and also followed up to see if I was pleased. I would highly recommend Peterson Picture. read more

I was very disappointed in the quality, customer service, and pricing at Peterson Picture. In short, it took three visits and redos for the piece to be framed properly and I gave up because I was sick of driving out of my way to deal with them. I brought a cloth piece that I picked up while traveling and wanted to have professionally framed. I found Mike Spear, one of the owners, very pushy and he did not do a good job of listening to what I wanted (as the customer). Ignoring my instinct, I left the piece with him to have framed. When I picked it up the first time, the piece was crooked in the frame (clearly not plumb). He offered to fix it at no charge. The second time, there were clear gaps in the frame at the corners indicating poor craftsmanship - if I were the store, I would be embarassed to let that kind of work leave my store. When I returned the third time, the piece was did not appear to lay flat in the frame. I was told that I was "looking too close at the detail" and "no one will look that closely at the quality" and "it looks fine." In my opinion, for a framing job where you are paying several hundred dollars, it should not look "fine" it should look "great." I was also disappointed in how Mr. Spear interacts with his staff. He spoke down to a co-worker that had been working on my piece, and similar to not listening to my concerns regarding the piece, also ignored the viewpoint of the co-worker responsible for framing the piece. Finally, after going in several times I am convinced that the credit card machine in the store never works. I preferred to pay by credit card, and every time there was an excuse about why the machine wasn't working. My guess is to avoid the credit card fees, however it is very inconvenient to pay in cash and I happen to not carry my checkbook regularly. I would recommend going elsewhere for special jobs, or checking out Sendaframe.com if you think you can do some of the work yourself. read more

If I could give Peterson Framing less than one star I would. If you think that you have been happy with the framing you have received in the past, it is because you have no idea what is lurking inside your framed art. A few years ago I dropped off a large exhibition to Peterson framing. I paid for archival matts, and archival backings for each of my images. As I began to have shows here and there, various galleries point out to me that what I had was NOT archival. Upon opening up each of the frames, I was SHOCKED to see what was inside. Out of 40 images, five had a backing board. The rest were all just backed with straight brown cardboard. 37 out of the 40 were taped to the frame face with REGULAR MASKING TAPE. One was even tapped to the frame with PACKING TAPE. You know, the clear kind you would fine at a UPS store? Unbelievable. See the photo I posted. Additionally, several of the pieces of art were put in the mats upside down. I had to take them back for them to be fixed and they actually gave me a lot of attitude about this- like it was a big bother that the mat was top weighted instead of bottom weighted. Most of the images were dented and are ruined. A few had black finger prints on the back. One even had markings on the back with black sharpie. They also do not wear any kind of gloves nor do they use any kind of care when handling your piece. Today, I am taking every last piece of crap that I bought from Peterson Framing Co. to the recycling center for cardboard. Because that is basically what I spent thousands of dollars on- cardboard. Peterson Picture Co does not do quality work and will swindle you. I am experienced with framing materials and they fooled me. Very sloppy work. Take your money elsewhere. read more

Fantastic job! Wonderful service from start to finish, and the framing turned out beautifully.

No fuss, straight forward framing. Cost was a consideration and Peterson was the best price in town. The end product looks great. I will use them again for my next project. Thanks Mike Spear and team at Peterson Picture! A job well done. read more

Very easy to work with and they produce unbelievable work. Everything is custom and made just the way you like it. I wouldn't work with anyone else in the area. HIGHLY recommend their services! read more

I was pleased to see the staff in masks when I dropped off my print. Mike helped me select the frame and glass and quoted me what I felt was a fair price. It took longer than normal for the framing to be done because of delays in receiving shipments due to Covid. My only complaint, a small one, was that I didn't get a call when my print was ready. The finished product was beautiful and well packaged for transport home. read more

Always "scary" to go to a new framer with one's masterpieces but Mike Spear did a great job of helping me though to choose just the right frames for my 3, very different pieces. I even changed my mind on how to frame one of the pieces, went back in and Mike understood "what I was going for". Good to have someone "get it" and follow thru to my liking. Just a slight glitch in timing but worked out for the best in the end. VL read more

Peterson Picture - Bathroom ptg frame - Framing Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I have shopped around for canvas floater frames for some of my large paintings and Mike at Peterson was very helpful and had the best price for this special type of large frame. I wanted to frame my painting myself and this was no problem for them. Turn-around time was very fast, and the finished floater frame was very high quality for the very affordable price. As an artist, price is very important to me, but needless to say quality can't be compromised. I'm very happy with my framed painting, and can't wait to place my next order with Peterson. read more

Bottom Line: Good prices, great customer service, plenty of options, and would recommend anytime. I brought in four pieces to be framed. Two of the four, I was looking for just a black frame, white matte - basic framing. Another was a movie poster and the last was a 17 piece handbill set. I had a budget I was working with, and an artistic style I wanted to see accomplished. Mike was very good at pushing me in areas where I didn't think to go, encouraging what I wanted to see, and overall seemed to enjoy what he does. Here is a link of the art: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.634436732376.2073256.83504044&type=3&l=a360c5092d Check 'em out! read more

I love working with the entire team at Peterson Picture on all my framing projects. I recently had two original Mickey Mouse pictures re-framed and we used a UV protective glass that will preserve the images for a long time to come. I was given a good price and the project was done in the time they communicated. I'll be using Peterson Picture for all my framing projects in the future! read more

Peterson Picture Framing - Great price, great service, very knowledgeable staff!. I actually had to reframe a painting after it was poorly framed at a location Near North on Ashland Ave. I'm usually very inquisitive perfectionist and like to learn about what I'm buying and how it's done and Jordan was more than willing to answer all of my very detailed questions. He helped me pick out the best frames to make my paintings look like they should hang in a museum. They're also very straightforward and honest. I left 2 paintings to be framed at 2 different times, so they told me to just pay for the whole thing once I picked up 2nd painting. Once I picked them up, I was overcharged erroneously (I didn't even notice cause the job was so well done and I was told it would be more expensive, that I paid willingly) and they where texting and calling apologetically to try to refund me the overcharge. They're great guys, doing great work. Definitely will take more art to them soon. read more

These guys do a great job and the pricing can't be beat. I've been very happy with framing I had done there in the last couple of months. Mike knows what he is doing and JIm's great too. read more

I just come back from this store when a was going to spend over 400 dollar in a frame for a vintage poster. When I did check the corners the where all very bad, I did ask for the owner and because I sad it was a very pour job, he start screaming to me about his 30 years in the business, and tell me to never go back, and he sad next time when I want something perfect to ask for a custom frame. All I want it was a decent job for 400 dollars, and I little respect and some costumer service skills. There is lots of stores, don't worry I will never spend my money there. read more

They are always spot on. We highly recommend Peterson Picture and after many years we may never go anywhere else. read more

Peterson Picture did a great job with my client's framing. We had a delicate (and expensive!) vintage piece, and Mike was able to give us the best advice for how to frame it in a way that preserves the condition of the piece. He was also very patient as my client and I (we're a high-maintenance, opinionated pair) went through all the framing options and finally settled on a basic black gallery frame. Mike's a great guy to work with; the pricing was fair; and we couldn't be happier with the results!!! read more
