This place is great! Quick, friendly, very reasonably priced. I needed some glass repaired for a picture that was broken during a move. They replaced the glass on the spot. Would definitely both recommend this place and return for additional framing needs when they arise in the future.

I’ve been going to this hidden jewel for years. It’s a family business. It doesn’t look like much when you pull up FYI. The prices are reasonable and the work impeccable. If you plan to go toward the end of business hours, call ahead and they’ll wait for you. Again, it’s a family business so they might leave a little earlier than the posting closing time on occasion. It’s much easier to pay by cash. Quick turn around time too.

This is where I struggle with myself– part of me wants to share this place with everyone, the other part wants to keep it all to myself!
The prices aren’t just reasonable, they are ridiculously low! Most of the time, with *very* few exceptions, they’ve been able to complete the work while I wait. Even then, I could pick it up next day. Having spent many years working in the framing industry, I can tell you that these guys offer a great product at a great price with an unheard-​of turnaround time!
As long as I live in Atlanta, I will bring my business here.
The previous reviewer is correct– cash transactions are easier. There are a plethora of ATMS further down the road.

I found out about this place years ago when I needed my engagement picture framed. Then, the price was reasonable and my picture was framed while I waited (it was a weekday).
I recently went back and the prices was still reasonable. There were many frames to choose from. Because it was a Saturday, I couldn’t wait while the picture was framed, but I was instructed to come back in a few hours. When I did, it was all finished and looked exactly like I wanted it too.
I will definitely continue to have my pictures framed here.
Tip: Take cash! The transaction is easier.

Attention artists, photographers, and people who love to hang stuff on the wall. This is a frame wonderland that won’t break the bank. It’s a dumpy looking warehouse in the middle of Bufu with the obnoxious mustard yellow company sign «Mableton Picture Frames» torn in half somwhere between the «Pic» and «ture.» I know I’m there when I see a shiny new gas station sign on the corner. Everything else in these parts looks neglected. If you’re familiar with the Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre, this is about three minutes down the road.
Anyway, if you’re expecting a frame shop with a nice storefront and 900 frames to choose from, you’ve come to the wrong place. But there’s a good selection of maybe 100 frames to choose from. You have to step over art to get to the counter and most of it is very ethnic and often naked in nature. And if you’re insecure about choosing a picture frame, get over it. The owner and his son have terrible taste so don’t let them talk you into the frame of their choosing!
Sammy, the owner, is almost always there, and if not his son will probably be there to help you. There are no prices on anything and the price changes from visit to visit. It sorta depends on how happy they are and which politician had a good day on the Hill. But the prices are so rock bottom, I don’t bother haggling if they go up $ 5 on me. When I went this week, the price went down about $ 10. It all works out in the end. And they are the nicest people once they get talkin’.
Oh, and when you show up, they usually have a small keg or a six pack on the counter. «Want a beer?» If you say no, they’ll ask you again and again, so just have one and have fun!
For a 16×20 frame, you pay between $ 20 and $ 30. We’ve framed much larger paintings for only $ 40. Go get a 16×20 framed at a frame shop and you’ll drop $ 115.
They can usually finish framing your stuff while you wait but it’s more likely on a weekday than a Saturday. They framed six paintings for me in under an hour last week.
Final words of wisdom: bring cash.
