I met with Marcia, who was very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful. She helped me select matting and frames, but when she gave me a price, it was waaaaay more than I wanted to spend. She found some less expensive options for me - still not inexpensive, but less expensive. She gave me a date a month out, but they were ready about a week later. Both pieces turned out beautifully, and I'm thrilled.

Not wanting to return to that location again, I stopped into the Framingham location while in the area. I don't know her name but the woman who did my return had a greenish blue tint in her hair and she was very sweet. I thought to check the Easter clearance before leaving and found 2 of the 3 items I actually did need, so I purchased those and hopefully I can find another next year. Everything worked out well thanks to the Framingham store!

There wasn't a huge variety at the time I was there, but I think a lot of stuff got cleaned out for graduation . They also have a new area by the front door that is for Birthdays, which could be a cute idea for your crafty wee ones! The store always is pretty well stocked has lots of fun craft ideas for kids and is always super clean and organized ! I only wish that they still had regular registers instead of those self checkouts. It seems they've reduced staff. Make sure to look for coupons on their app or online before you check out. They usually have at least 20% off somewhere. Lots of parking as it's in shoppers world, but that corner can get pretty packed.

This shop seems more expansive than the other Corners stores that I have visited. At the time that I visited, they were offering a free mat when you purchased a frame. This may be a perennial offer, and a very nice one at that. The two gentlemen working the desk greeted me and let me know they'd be with me in a moment, since they were working with other customers. See what a little acknowledgement can do? They were both wearing nicely framed glasses, just to further the pun here, and to give you an idea of how much I notice good framework. I had one oddly-sized poster to frame, and Mr. Vin helped me to assess my options in terms of frame materials, glass or plexi, etc. without being pushy. I had brought in a coupon which was expired (fully to my knowledge, just so you know that I'm not one to demand acceptance of coupons that have been expired since Prince was the Artist Formerly Known As). Mr. Vin totally accepted it! The man saved me 200 smackers! I will be eager to report to you all just how nicely my framed poster turned out, $200 short of what I would have regularly paid sans expired coupon.

I learned that this business had the distinction of being the oldest framing shop in the country dating back to the early 1900's and has remained a family run local business during this time. (Wow! That's impressive!) Initially based out of the Arcade in Downcity Providence, they moved to this location in the 1970's and have continued to expand over time. What you will find today are three massive floors filled with artwork, prints, drawings, ceramics, etc from great local artists in addition to their large framing area. They can handle all types of projects small or large and provide service and support both locally and out of state. They boast quality craftsmanship, lifetime guarantees on their work, and prices that are comparable to what you'd find from the big box chains that offer framing services (no coupon needed!) The difference is the years of knowledge and experience you get when choosing Providence Picture Frame as well as the good feeling you get knowing that you are helping a long time family run store stay in business for future generations. You'll also find friendly employees who care passionately about their business, their community, and helping the customer get exactly what they are looking for. Pro tips: Consider shopping in their gallery for unique and special birthday or holiday gifts. Not sure how to display that special photo, artwork, or sentimental item? Stop by to talk to them about their custom framing ideas and to preserve your one of a kind item for a lifetime.
