Framing Workshop

This place is such a great find. I found this business on Unilocal about a year ago when I was looking to get an A1 poster framed. I got a few quotes from other places who all wanted over £70, these guys did it for £34! And I got a beautiful bright red frame for A’s nursery print to boot.
The staff were super helpful and friendly on my first visit and I am equally happy to report that they have been so at each subsequent visit. I’ve taken my own frames in here to having photos properly mount and I’ve taken in photos to be framed and the service is always great at a fabulous price.
All the times I’ve been in it’s been a 7 day turnaround for items. I wasn’t in any great rush on any occasion and the shop always seems to be busy, so this seems reasonable. I’m sure if you had a tighter deadline they would do what they could for you.

The Framing Workshop was recommended to me by a lovely local artist in Glasgow.
It was easy to find the shop and there’s parking outside.
Any time I’ve ever been in, I’ve always been served really quick and they make sure you’re happy with the frame you’ve chosen and the colour.
I’ve had three things framed from them and have never had an issue, they have a good eye for design and can recommend s frame to you if you’re not sure what you want.
It’s very affordable too, I think I payed £20 for two decent frames and they finish the framing quite quickly too.
I’ll be back again when I need something else framed, my flat will be full of framed pictures!

If you need something framed I would highly recommend going to The Framing Workshop near St George’s cross. Staff are lovely and very helpful. I have many things framed there at a very reasonable price. For example me and my friend had the same picture to get framed, she went else where and payed £65 and I only payed £32. Bargain.
I also saw a picture on pinterest of a box frame with an opening in the top so that you can post your old concert tickets in to display them. They took on the challenge and made me one which I love, I still need to sort all my tickets out but when I have I will add a picture.
Oh also if you if you are in don’t forget to look up, when I was collecting my frame I was chatting to the owner, I asked her what the weirdest thing she had framed was and she told me to look up. Framed on the roof was a giant tunnocks tea cake from the opening ceremony of the commonwealth games. Love it.

Been here a few times now.
Friendly staff and a good service.
No problems at all, pleased with the prices and the communication.
As well as framing they have some nice photographs in store which are worth checking out. I picked up an amazing map of Glasgow with all the place names written on the map (see
).
Recommended.

The cheapest framers I know of in the west side of Glasgow.

Have you ever had a friend that screwed up?
I mean really screwed up? Not only did they crash your car but your dog was in the car at the time, and since your friend was drunk they had the dog driving. Car gone, dog dead and your pal asking for a beer next to the flaming wreckage complaining about your dog’s inability to successfully negotiate reverse camber corners.
In a similar scale — Framing Workshop really screwed up
They were asked to frame a antique shawl by the wife.
An antique Whitby Jet shawl that she has taken care of for over 35 years. We have carried it with us over oceans and kept it in pride of place, in every location we have inhabited.
We decided to get the item framed to protect it and specifically asked for it to be pinned in the framed and hung over the backing.
The colour of the backing board that they decided to use was grey and when we got it home, it sucked the colour out of the shawl and out of the room.
So, I thought why not get the backing board changed out to a nice cream and present it to the wife.
The local framer took it in and phoned me the next day.
«They glued it».
Sorry
«They glued the whole thing».
The front matt board was glued to the shawl. The antique shawl was completely glued to the backing board. It was not going to shift. Destroyed. Thank you very much.
And we are never going near Framing Workshop ever again.
