What Items and Objects can be Frames

Picture Frames - What Items And Objects Can Be Framed?

By Cleo Gib

It does not matter if we have to in case an award, diploma, certificate, portrait, mirror, artifact, sports jersey, children's art work, flag, or any other valuable, the chore of picking out the perfect frame can be a bit overwhelming. There are so many different frames in  that without the advice of a professional it may be tough to find the perfect casing for all your different wall decorations.
Trends are changing. Today, people like to frame more than just precious, old paintings or family photos. An array of items is being framed, even valuable memorabilia. What is the sense of having a collection of military medals, butterflies, or autographs when they are locked up in a drawer?
While magnificent watercolors once decorated the walls of many homes, modern folks also like to brighten up their rooms with stylish posters. Many frames are designed to highlight the depth of placards, announcements and advertising sheets. Sure, it may not look like a promotion, but when you are hanging a Star Trek poster over your mantel, you are actually endorsing the movie, the TV show, or your passion for Sci-Fi.
Stacking frames are constructed in such a way that they create a 3D effect. Shadow boxes, on the other hand, are much deeper than regular frames. Because of the extra space between the backing and the glass casing, you can actually place an object inside the box. These frame types are used to better preserve and display sculpted artwork, signed baseballs, miniatures, and other valuable objects.
