Gold frame from michaels.com
My favorite gold frame is from Michaels.com it’s a wood frame, painted a matte gold color. The gold frame against the white mat is such a rich contrast. Also, check out this wildflower vintage print.
Light wood frames from target.com
My favorite light wood frames are from Target.com. This medium sized frame is a 16×20 inch frame with a 11×14 inch print. Here’s the muted watercolor vintage print.
Target also offers large frames that are very affordable. This large sized frame is a 27×40 inch frame matted to a 24×36 inch print. This minimalistic flowering branch is available in my etsy shop.
Printer Recommendations
If you want the printer that art shops rave about here it is. I’ve been using the Epson XP-150000 for years and am so happy with the ease and quality. I’ve loved having this printer at home, it’s so easy to print small 4×6 prints as well as large 11×14 inch prints right at home. The quality is amazing.
Paper Recommendations
Wondering what the best paper is to print on? My favorite affordable papers can be found on Amazon and at Red River.
If you want to print at home, the paper is just as important as the printer. My favorite matte paper is the Epson Ultra Premium Presentation Paper Matte. When you print on this paper the colors are spot on, the detail and sharpness are why this paper is used by so many professionals who choose to print their own art prints. The paper comes in multiple sizes so you can print large and small prints. The price is affordable and it’s accessible from amazon.com and office depot.
My favorite textured paper is the Paper Canvas 230 from Red River, the paper looks and feels like canvas. You’ll love the texture and how it makes the vintage prints look truly like an antique painting.
