    Needed to go big in the home office...

    Awesome. Where'd you get it framed? I used a DIY kit on mine but thinking of getting it redone 
    .
    I often get the DIY kits for different posters I have. But I just took two PJ posters that I have been wanting to frame for a while to get professionally framed. It was around $300 each to get framed. So expensive. Once I get them back I will post photos. 
    I have always debated on doing it myself, but haven’t tried a diy kit yet. It does get expensive bringing to get professionally done for sure, I might have to try a kit for the next one

    Another Eddie Solo Tour Poster


    Looks awesome.  The art on that poster is so well done and it fits the show‘s location.

    Art to Frames has good DIY. They are more expensive than if you get ready made frames at a store. They are still custom. You pick out the frames, mat colors, width you want the mats, etc. then they send it to you and you pop in the poster yourself. It can still be around $125 or more based on size but cheaper than getting it done professionally. They use acid free mats as well.

    Thanks for the tip! I will have to check them out. I like the idea of custom at a better price point. I like the idea of them sending everything pre-fab. I think I might be able to handle that...ha!

    If you decide to try Art to Frames just make sure you go to the custom frame section of the website so you can design the frame yourself rather than buying one of their pre-made ones.

    Thanks. Was lucky enough to get some of Eddie's picks that night at the show and I think they look great with the "mini poster" postcard. (I have the poster size version also...have not framed it up yet. Too many posters, too little money...) This is my very favorite poster of teh shows I've been to that I have framed up...

    I was in Market Square that night didnt get into the show.  Saw Victoria, 2 in Calgary, 1 in Edmonton and Ottawa that tour.  I have both of the other two posters as well, the green one is framed as well.  Will share that one too.

    They cut the frame for you right? They didn't stock a frame that size?

    Correct. I can't remember exactly how much they cost... but I think around $180/each
