Literally, the absolute best frame shop I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. Ken Romer was incredible to work with and took a thoughtful and artistic approach with each project. My brother and I were both blown away at his work. Great people to work with, exceptional customer service and quality product. I will continue to have all of my framing done here!

Ken Romer and his team are absolutely brilliant. Ever since I discovered them years ago I have never ventured anywhere else for framing. I am an art nut and have quite a collection of prints and the frame central crew kill it EVERY TIME. They always have creative solutions and an incredible eye and they are wonderful to work with. I trust them whole heartedly and highly recommend. Just got another print framed by them and was completely floored by the quality and attention to detail. Thank you so much, Ken and team!!

I love the team at Frame Central. I have been coming here for years. I especially love the (relatively) inexpensive process of lamination for my sons art and maps. Ken is always really helpful and the service is personable and reliable.

This is my go-to place for framing~ twice now I have gone in with a concept in mind, and thanks to the designers, both projects turned out FAR better than I had anticipated. If you are looking for professional help with a project, this is the place

Best place to get your work framed. Very professional, creative and engaging staff. Appreciate all of their assistance and work. And I often have to come in last minute with my requests and they are always gracious and helpful.

Latest project that Frame Central did for me was a custom shadow box for memorabilia from my mom’s career as a flight attendant for TWA airlines immediately after World War II. They spent more than 90 minutes w me to design the display. It turned out beautifully. Was not inexpensive but definitely heirloom quality!

This is a favorite place to take my own art and the art of others to find the best possible matting and framing for each and every piece. Ken Romer, the store manager, always remembers me and my preferences. I like his honest feedback about my choices and his complete support for my final decisons. And . . . hes always polite to my doggie, Kindred.

They are amazing . Framed lots of pictures 2 years ago - one of them required fixing and adjustment and they did not charge me for that, as part of the warranty. Ken, Amber and Jacolby - thank you !!

I asked for advice and was given a number of options. We looked at a lot of options and I particularly appreciated that a variety of price options were suggested. Turn around was quicker that suggested and I love the result of our collaboration.

I needed two prints framed and I was very clueless as to what the choices were for this process. The folks at Frame Central were very helpful in helping explain all the options and I loved the final product!

I have had pictures framed and have done my own framing with the help of staff at Frame Central Macadam. Everyone has been very helpful and prices are quite reasonable. Staff frequently offer options for saving money. Their sales are awesome!

To the framing wizards at Frame Central Macadam:Please know how very grateful I am for the custom framing project in which you manufactured framing material out of 120 year old flooring from my church attic, and included two square nails from flooring piece as part of the mat.You have proven your creativity and fine craftsmanship to me many times over the years for personal and client projects. This was truly over the top.This framed image of the original architects drawing of the 1894 building was meant to be a gift. However, Im very tempted to keep it myself!Thanks for a stellar job. Much appreciated.

The guys at Frame Central Macadam were so patient and helpful! It was my first time framing something and it was a delicate heirloom. Not only did they provide me with a lot of choices, they completed the project in less than the expected time. Excellent service and high quality products!

Im so happy to have found this place. The most important thing to me is how friendly, knowledgeable and helpful people were to me. They helped me evaluate best matting color, best frame size and style and and allowed me to do a lot of the framing myself, while instructing me carefully. I love this place. Thank you all for your help and fun, friendly selves. Ill be back and have since recommended you to friends.

Get those framing projects you have been putting off done at Frame Central! The best part is the full range of options: total custom framing where they take care of everything to DIY where they prepare the materials and you do most of the labor. The employees at the Macadam shop are particularly friendly, helpful, and creative which makes the experience even more fun!

These folks are wonderful to work with. Since having a bad experience at a glass shop (which Frame Central fixed FOR FREE) Ive used them exclusively. I get good advice and direction on frame selection and the work is always professional and completed on time as promised. Customer for life.

Frame Central was awesome. They helped me pick out the perfect frame setup for a non-standard sized art piece Id wanted forever. They were kind, professional and extremely helpful. Highly recommended!

Friendly, helpful staff offering quality frames and custom framing at decent prices. Sometimes you need to wait for help due to there usually only being a couple people working each shift, but its worth the wait.Its a little tricky to get into the parking lot, as you need to be travelling North on Macadam to get into the street that has the parking entrance.

Frame Central has come through for us year after year! I come in every year with auction projects from my local elementary school and every staff member is always so kind navigating me through the maze of options. They have great eyes for composition and are total perfectionists at creating a final piece. I am extremely picky and they blow me away every time. Thank you so much for all of your help! You helped us have a very successful auction this year!

Id highly recommend this place! Walked in planning on getting just two simple frames, and ended up being so impressed and inspired by their inventory, that I bought a few more items along the way in hopes of completing some personal projects! Staff was super friendly, gave poignant suggestions and were very helpful.

Ken answered my questions for almost an hour, and I walked out of the store feeling like an expert. I really appreciated his time. And, he remembered my name when I walked into the store a few days later. The prices seem very fair and Ive really like what Ive found in the store the last three visits. Id like to try their Chromaprints soon, since their display copies seem to be top notch. Its an interesting little business chain thats connected to a bunch of other frame shops in the Northwest, which includes a warehouse where they make high-quality prints.

Took a little needlework sample in and Ken turned it into art. So pleased with the outcome...best $$ spent in a long, long time. Makes me smile every time I look at it :)

Almost bought an amazon frame for Warhol reprint I got as a present but I decided to go with a local company close to my house. I ended up with a super nice custom frame with glass for an amazing price. Fast custom frame work with tons of options available in store also.

Review №34

We walked in with a simple project just taking a piece of art out of an old frame and putting it into a new frame with a new mat. We were greeted with a warm smile and helpful attitude. No one tried to sell us anything extra, they just focused on what we wanted.Once we had picked out the new matting I joked about what time this afternoon we could pick it up. To my surprise I was told they would be able to do it today and I could just swing back later in the afternoon and it would be ready. I dont expect that turn around will happen every time but it certainly made my day.

The Macadam store is convenient and has plenty of parking. The staff have always been helpful every time I’ve been there. Also they rotate local artists displayed in their entry area gallery—a nice addition.

I cant say enough about Frame Central! First, understand that custom framing does come with a cost - it is not inexpensive. But Frame Central is very fair with there pricing. And while most stores offer 2-3 week turn-arounds, my pieces came back in two days! A fair price, great selection, knowledgeable and and helpful staff (thanks, Ken!), and an unheard of turn-around what else can you ask for? 😊

Some of the best, most creative, customer service people around. From the moment I walked in the door to the help I received carrying my framed artwork to the car, I couldnt have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend.

The service here is fast and friendly, and the work is precise. I had a large canvas that I needed mounted, and the work was completed a week earlier than quoted. Will definitely return for my next framing need!

Review №51

Popped in here on a weekday night to frame my wedding photos. I needed the photos framed in a hurry so I could give them as a gift for my in-laws, so I was looking to buy a ready-made frame and perhaps a mat that was already cut to size. I spent easily over an hour perusing their frame selection (but I am also the worlds most indecisive person) and another good chunk of time looking at different mat options. I was helped by Lucas (stylish looking guy with glasses) and he offered great customer service. He not only walked me through the process of choosing a frame and mat, he also had a keen eye for color and tone and offered me his honest opinion on mat/frame pairings and which colors would best compliment my photos. At the same time, he wasnt pushy and made me feel good about my choices. He even showed me how to properly frame one of my photos so that I could do the rest myself.Good frame/mat selection, many pre-cut mats, very reasonable prices, and excellent customer service.
