Bay Framing

I provide a full professional framing service for pictures, prints and anything else you can put in a frame, as well as offering a range of cards and prints by both local and world-renowned artists. Bay Framing is easy to find - at 24 Regent Road we are on a busy shopping street with plenty of parking and just off the promenade. Photos are precious memories. A framed portrait - of a much-loved chi

ld, a wedding couple or a proud graduate - will give you pleasure every time you see it. Landscape shots look wonderful in a frame, too, whether they're scenes from a memorable holiday or that amazing cloud-streaked sunrise you caught on your mobile phone on your way to work. I can advise on mounts, colours and frames for you to enjoy your photographs at their very best for years to come. Prints
A quality print is always enhanced by a well-chosen frame, and often a mount too. You've chosen a print because it has a particular appeal to you. Give it the treatment it deserves and make the most of it. Posters
Been to a mind-blowing live event, or found a collectable poster of your favourite band? Or perhaps you have a rolled-up collection of treasured Athena posters that contain the memories of your youth? Posters may be at the cheaper end of framing items, but that doesn't mean they should be subjected to Blu-Tack or drawing pins. A frame transforms a poster. If it means something to you, frame it and be proud of it. Paintings
A painting is an extremely personal item and often a source of great pride and satisfaction, whether it is your own work or that of someone you know. An original work needs to be treated with respect and skill, and given a carefully chosen mount and frame that will show it to its best advantage. And budding artists need love too: a child or young person's artwork looks completely different when it's suitably framed. Canvases
Canvases are an increasingly popular alternative to traditional framing, and look stunning given the right subject matter and location. Whether your canvas needs a frame or to be simply block-mounted can be a tricky decision, bring it in and we can discuss your options to make the right choice. Cross stitches/ tapestries/needlework
A finished piece of needlework is its own reward. The pleasure is in the making, and afterwards, in the proud contemplation of a unique work which may have taken many months to complete. Needlework needs to be carefully stretched to regain its original shape, and framed sympathetically to show it at its best. Framing also protects it and turns it into an heirloom. Specialist items including clothing
If you think it can't be framed, think again. In the past ten years I have framed a wide range of items, from the expected - sports shirts, medals and certificates - to the unexpected: baby shoes, lego figures and packs of pencil crayons. OTHER ITEMS
