I used this book right away - love it!

Tonia invites readers to enjoy framing with her, and I am so grateful! Framing can be intimidating, but she glides and guides us right past that with clear basic guidelines, classy projects, and her own very creative artwork. I had to do an art project to accompany an article for a major art magazine. Frame It! was my reference and inspired an idea - I am really happy with the results. This is a book I will USE in the studio.

Nice...

This is a nice book to read about different frame types. If you want to learn the basics, there are other books to choose from. This is for those that already have the skills and want to make better frames.

Framing even I can do!

I am scared of power tools and anything that involves measuring, but Tonia shows easy and professional ways to frame art without having to take a wood shop class! Love this book and I am proud to have my art in it!

A comprehensive and creative guide!

I am a custom framer myself, and even I got ideas for frame designs! The book is an extremely comprehensive guide for standard framing techniques, but what I really love are the more creative, non-standard techniques Tonia shows as well. A must for the crafter who wants to display her artwork, but who wants to "do-it-herself".

Unusual, Artsy, Framing Fun!

After explaining that she views framing as "journaling for your walls," the author shows you unusual, unexpected, artsy ways to journal your life . . . on your walls! The book gives excellent ideas for framing anything from modern art to journal pages to antique flatware, with textures and colors as intriguing as the art they house. This will definitely inspire those with visual journals to Frame It!
