I learned about Elite Framing, when they opened up across from a yoga studio where I practice. I…read morekept their name in the back of my mind for an appropriate time. Finally, I had a chance to use them to frame and matte some my father's paintings. Mark helped me choose matting and framing to strongly emphasize the diverse art pieces. Final results were great; he did such a good job, I went back when it came time to frame others. More recently, we moved; the frame on one of my favorite paintings, from my father's collection, was damaged from poor packing. When I brought it back, Mark remembered it and the details of the framing off the top of his head--and this is about five years after the fact! He fixed it and made it good as new. I was grateful for his care in restoring this beloved family heirloom and the ease with which he did it. Without second thought, I would use Elite Framing again and again.

Your experience doesn't have to be "woo-woo/spiritual" -- we were open to it. Make sure to go if you are too! If not, that's cool -- they'll keep it "normal" for you. ;-)

I always thought that it was just a frame shop (yes, I know, I', an idiot,) but when I walked in, I was shocked when I saw so many pieces of beautiful artwork! I was shocked to see so many pieces of high-quality art sitting in a shop in Columbia, SC! Whether you're Christian or not, they had a lot of art pieces featuring Mary and Baby Jesus, which I found to be amazing! They also had a lot of really cool beach landscapes, which I didn't expect to see! The customer service was also amazing, where the employee on shift explained what the shop was all about, offered to answer any questions, and made himself available throughout my entire trip! My best piece of advice: don't be an idiot like me and think that this shop just sells picture frames; please stop in and see all of the amazing pieces of artwork! I promise you won't regret it!

I take the artwork to her, she puts it on a worktable and the magic begins. I consider her an artist in her own right. There is a lot to consider when framing art. Picking the perfect color, design, size, etc. Then what kind of mat, the size, color and how it surrounds the artwork. Also, what kind of glass is of utmost importance in how the finished item will present the art. If the wrong glass is used it may not protect the artwork, cause a reflection, distorting how you perceive the art.
