Barbara is an artist and treats the process of framing as an art in itself. Even after we had picked out some frame and matte combinations, she called later to say she wasnt happy with our original plan for one of the two paintings I brought in. She also made a slight change to the plan for the other painting. What she came up with for both paintings was perfect. Besides her artistic vision she also has a total attention to detail. She even signed and dated the reverse of each piece! I couldnt be happier.

Barbara did an amazing job framing a photograph for me. She chose just the right colors and its gorgeous. She is a real artist and knows what she is doing. She is also just a lovely person to work with. I highly recommend her.

Barbara has an amazing eye and is very talented. I have taken five pieces to her including a very difficult Fijian tapa paper. Because of Barbara’s expertise and design ascetic she turned my pieces into absolute works of art. I could not be more pleased and highly recommend Barbara.

With patience and her exquisite taste Barbara has reframed a number of pictures for me. She never hurries me, but takes the necessary time to arrive at a beautiful completion. The results of her talented work is always beyond my expectations.

I have been going to Barbara for a long time, off and on again for about twenty years. I know she is extremely busy and does all the work herself, I will wait as long as need be for her to do my framing and mat design. She has a wonderful gift and I value her work. I recently brought her a treasured piece of an original chalk drawing that appeared to have a stain in the mat which was last done in the 1970s. Barbara sent me to a paper alchemist, a great referral to a wonderful young lady. They were able to spray and stop further damage before proceeding with the new mat. Barbara is willing to take time with you and she is direct and honest with her opinions, I treasure her transparency.

We were very impressed with their attention to detail and professionalism. We had a local watercolor painting framed and it really came out nice. Barbara, the owner, made great recommendations but let us give our thoughts on which glass and colors to use.She took our ideas and made the finished work very special.

Barbara framed five pieces of art for me. She was friendly, gracious and very professional. I had a great experience from the time I walked into the store until the completion of the work. She was very patient while I looked at many options and her expertise helped me to make choices that turned my unframed work into pieces that I will treasure for many years. I would highly recommend this business.

A perfect place to have your art pieces taken care of.

I went to Barbara with a very challenging framing project. She suggested a framing treatment that not only highlighted the individual elements of the piece, but I felt the finished product showed a special respect for the work of art itself and the artist who created it. I would return to Barbara at her Edmonds Frame Design & Atelier in a heartbeat with any and all future framing projects.

Barbara has been helping me frame small and medium sized artwork and family photographs for the last 5 years. She has always done a great job helping me select nice frames and mats. She has a very good artistic eye regarding what type of frame and mat goes with a specific phto or drawing. She is great!
