I just did this last night. I got the framing materials from Art to Frame. I need to fix the matting because it is off a little, but I think it turned out ok.
Nice color choices. Grey on white looks nice together. Creates a soft look that matches well with the art style.

Agree. Looks great.
This show, another show, a show here and a show there.
Framer just sent me the pic of the finished product, can't wait to see it in person
Wow!! Love how the frame matches the silver of the cat. Does the poster have a purple border or is that matting? Visually looks like a lot of framing layers, very cool! Gorgeous print and frame job!

Thank you! The purple is matting. Yes indeed on the layers -- 3 mats, a fillet and two frames lol
Posted this in the Tool thread-the missus got this beauty framed for a birthday present. Love how it turned out. Had a good chat with the framers and they love trying to get it to be part of the piece rather than just protection. Well that's what the dude said. Either way I'm a happy chappy.

When i frame a pick. I cut a hole in matte and put a small piece of paper towel behind it to give a small amount of pressure so it doesn't slide around. In a prof frame job. I don't know. Above looks great.
Tin hat on - I used double sided tape usually used for hanging frames on walls. Cut it into little squares and placed it on the white areas on the back of the pick. It may leave marks on the picks but I was willing to take the risk. Better look good on your walls than sitting in pristine condition in a draw IMO.
That said, my posters and signed items have everything from mounting strips to UV glass to protect them from damage, I'm just not as attached to picks!

man, I finally found a decently priced one of these.....I feel like the style would really pop with the right frame....but I don't have much room to begin with. AP signed and numbered. (and no,I don't care that clapton is a douche lol)

Well, enter a $7 frame from the thrift shop, and I didn't even have to modify the mat!
It's a frame mat, too - really adds some subtle nice depth (sorry for the dusty picture, but it adds about 1/4" drop).
Wife couldn't be happier that this is finally on the wall!

Perfect fit, and the foil just POPS with the light from my under-cabinet LED's. Hard to capture in the pics.
Countertop is a work in progress (along with countless other projects), so I'll post a picture once everything is completed!
Here's the "working" render I made in SketchUp.
Bought a pile of old hardwood flooring, and going to make a large butcher-block benchtop for the cabinet area.
Can't wait until it's all done (until I find something else to add)!!
