I have never framed anything before and I bought about 5 pieces of artwork. I called this store so I can get an idea of pricing. When I say I have NEVER, it means I have no concept of pricing at all. I started my call to this place stating that. I was told by the owner he is offering 40% off. That upset me — I appreciate that he has a great deal, but it means nothing if you don’t have any idea of pricing. Granted, I got a little combative but wow, the response was unreal. Rude. I just needed to get an idea(literally asked«over $ 1K or under») and he responded his was not the place for my business. Looks like he does well by people if you know what you are doing, but avoid this place if you are looking for guidance.

I have moved out of the Tampa area and will not be able to use The Great Frame Up again. However, if you have anything you consider special to be framed, rush to this shop for advice and guidance, and be confident you will take away a piece of art, picture or memorabilia which has been superbly and artfully framed. This review is long overdue from a positive experience in Feb 2013. The piece of art was very large and linear. It would be complicated and expensive wherever I took it. Heidrun carefully explained the best option for floating the papyrus and the type of mat and frame that would compliment a large piece. Their online deep discount coupon had expired. Since this was my first visit, she honored the coupon anyway. In fact, she was the one who brought up the coupon matter. For large pieces, they use a special hanging system that makes it simple, safe and easy to level. I am certain all three locations have equally high standards. Mine was the Neptune St., Tampa location.

Love this place. They framed a wedding photo of mine and it came out amazing. One of the owners took the time to sit with me and go through multiple frames and options and layout choices. I LOVE the look of it. They also have amazing artwork that is done by another of the owners. Seriously cool stuff. I will be back to use their framing services for sure.

I love to collect art, especially from local artists. My decision, to have all my pieces framed by The Great Frame Up, was a smart one! Heidrun and Alan have a knack for choosing frames. Their frames become part of the art work, enhancing the effect of each piece. without clashing with the art itself. Not just well done, but ‘Awesome’! I highly recommend everyone who wants to frame his/her beloved painting/picture etc. to drop by the store for a consult with Heidrun or Alan. Their exuberance and passion for art and framing will turn your trip into wonderfully worthwhile experience!
