What is worth Framing?
Anything that is important to you, anything you find beautiful or pleasing to look at, is worth framing. It does not matter if the artwork was expensive or expected to raise in value. A 99 cent gift card can look like an expensive piece of art when framed properly. A very sentimental gift, no matter how small or inexpensive, can be beautiful and unique when shadowboxed. A child’s artwork can be a very special display framed in your home and is important encouragement to the budding artist. There is no appropriate ratio for cost of framing to value of artwork, what you choose to frame should be based solely on the importance of the work to you and the enjoyment you get from viewing it.
