    Geez, these Boston and Seattle Klausens sure look nice framed.  I might have to do this with my Seattle.  They don't fit in my portfolio anyway.  I just have too many framed posters on my walls!  I swore I was done.

    looks good...it's amazing how much better these look framed (in my opinion)....they didn't catch my eye before

    I framed these myself. Slight learning curve at first but after a a dozen or so, it gets easier.

    Just got mine back 
    Nice.. I like how the natural border is used as a third mat.  I will do the same.  Is the top mat an off white or a cream?
    It’s more an off white .  I did not want a bright white

    I would agree .  These framed are looking better.  I am awaiting my Boston Variant to arrive to figure out how I want it to match with the Seattle variant

    I got my Seattle Klausen poster back today.  I hung this by my Chicago Klausen from 2016.



    Love it! Your Seattle Klausen is framed almost exactly like ours.  I know a lot of people wanted the other poster (bigfoot with a motorhome?) but I thought it was hideous quite frankly. 
    This was my favorite Seattle poster too.  I went both nights and sort of wish there were unique posters like this for each nighl that I could frame like a pair of tickets.  Maybe the drums getting kicked.

    Added another to the wall.  Now I can say, "Can we just talk about the elephant in the room.." when in meetings with parents and teachers!

    ^ Outstanding! I’m waiting on my Thomas which I should have back any day now. Did a similar mat combo. I’ll post once I have it. 
    Thanks! I'm happy with how it came out

    Crazy.  Mine is still at Hobby Lobby and I literally picked out the same exact frame and matte combination at first, but I ended up changing it last minute.  Your looks beautiful though.  I ended up going with a lighter color frame that I thought brought out the gray and white in the bricks.  In turn I ended up with a darker main matte and the orange accent matte.
      
    Make sure you post the final product too!

    O-H!

    I love this, and is what I am planning on doing...either white on white or black on black, depending on the poster.  I think the simple framing really makes the posters pop.  Great job!

    A framing store is as rare in Ireland as dirty Frank live.  So I had to wing it with the Prague mount online, didn't know if the colour would work but thankfully I love how it came out.  London was easy.

    The light blue vintage frame doesn’t really come through in the photo but it plays well off of the colours in the print

    Go to a local shop, and see if they can get you a discount for bulk, assuming they are all the same size, and you will get the same frame for all. Guy by me said he would knock off around 20% doing it that way rather than one at a time.

    Nice job!
    If you're in the west there's a good shop in Galway- The Frame Shop. They have a few PJ and EV frame jobs on their website.

    They do give me discount, I have worked out something if I do bring in multiple posters. But still bringing in 3 to 4 posters and around 250 a pop, it still adds up
