Just picked up a couple of prints from a local art fair. They're non-standard sizes and I'm struggling to find frames that fit. Any suggestions? The regular stores only seem to have standard sizes, and I don't want to crop the artwork

I had the same issue with some Japanese woodblock prints I bought. Standard frames either cut off part of the image or left too much empty space. Ended up being really frustrated trying to make them work

Custom framing is definitely the way to go for unusual sizes. I used a service that specializes in art frames uk for my collection of odd-sized vintage movie posters. The difference in quality compared to off-the-shelf frames is remarkable. They helped select frame styles that complemented each piece rather than competing with it. Also advised on proper mounting and glass options - apparently regular glass can damage artwork over time due to UV exposure. It's more expensive than ready-made frames for sure, but when you've invested in art you love, it's worth protecting and displaying it properly. My posters look so much more professional now, and I know they're properly preserved
