I'm giving Barnett's Art and Frame Gallery one star because they were, at least, open on a…read moreSaturday. However after looking at their itemized estimate for framing and comparing it to the estimate from the business I wound up leaving my picture at I'm debating taking away that one star. Here's why. Drew @Barnett's gave me a $205.87 estimate for replacing the outer wooden frame for a 38 x 29 inch picture. No matting, no glass, two week turnaround. I then took the picture to Mr. Frame It (on University Blvd) for another estimate (always a good idea , people: second, even third estimates) and got an estimate of $145.12 including tax! Same picture with very similar replacement frame and a one week turnaround. Needless to say, Mr. Frame It got my business. (I would've shopped around for a third estimate, but didn't want to risk doing damage to the picture's glass.) Upon returning to my car I then looked closely at the estimate from Barnett's which I'd initially shoved into my pocket. He charged $144.72 for materials, $24.41 for labor....so far more expensive than Mr. Frame It, but okay. THEN, an additional $22.38 for "SPECIAL LABOR"??? Yup! You can see it yourself....I've attached the written evidence. So, to Drew @ Barnett's Art and Frame Gallery, SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!

I love being able to go into a framing shop, and actually get input and advice from the framers. They always have great ideas for some of the quirky pieces we have brought to them, and they always seem genuinely excited to help and collaborate on ideas. Their pricing is to par as well. About middle of the road considering how many things I have had framed. In the end, as long as I am in Jax I will continue to seek their services.

I love this store and their selection of everything art. For me it's about acrylic painting (studio…read moreCanvases, brushes, paint, spra). It's important to know that they stock every type of supply for all art avenues/mediums - not limited to painting. They also maintain an inventory of virtually every size canvas and at great prices. Stephanie and Alan are very helpful. I have been shopping with them for ~15 years. I went into the original store. They have been instrumental in getting me started on my acrylic journey. I love shopping there. I don't paint as much as I used to, but they are my first stop when I get ready to do a project. They have a wonderful selection and they are very helpful. I basically tell them what I want to do and they help me run with it. I highly recommend this business.

I happened to be over in Ponte Vedra the other day and swung into PV Arts & Crafts as I heard that…read morethey had a section of needlepoint designs and supplies. I've slowly come back into doing cross-stitch and it's been tough to find a local store with supplies, designs, and hand-dyed floss and fabric. There were a few kits at Reddi-Arts prior to their closure, but I haven't found much that isn't, at least, an hour drive away now. While the cross-stitch/embroidery section was a bit smaller than I hoped, I was excited to find some great Satsuma Street designs, some hand-dyed thread, and some different fabrics that were available. I definitely could come by with a floss color key and gather all I need for any project. I didn't get a chance to fully explore the books or even get into where the majority of PV Arts & Crafts fabric is held, but I'm looking forward to my next trip to delve in even more. As I was on my lunch, I didn't have too much time to poke around further into the store, so I'll have to make a return trip when I don't have a time restriction. This is a spot that is much bigger on the inside than it appears from the outside, and everyone would benefit for having some time to explore.

When I picked up my framing it was like WOW. It far exceeded my expectations. And as far as price go the price was great. It may seem expensive but for the work and quality, it was worth every penny. I got some estimates from some Nationwide stores that do framing, and even with their 50 percent coupon it's was still a lot more expensive then Affordable Framing. Again I can't say enough about the quality work they did.

She was available for questions, but did not hover while I shopped. Perfect balance. Donna was not only friendly, but she has an excellent selection of every line I like (Graphic45, Tim Holtz, ATC and inchie rubber stamps, and materials that can be used in mixed media/ roomboxes). In particular, I was thrilled that Donna has open stock on a wide variety of Tim Holtz Distress inks (ink pads, refills!!!!!!, and markers). I was able to fill in nearly every missing item in my set. Very satisfying. Not only is there a great selection, but the store is laid out in a sensible way for the shopper. I did not find myself going back and forth between different shelves/ areas making comparisons and looking for matching items. No need, because they were all in exactly the right spot. As I was visiting this shop during a business trip, I asked Donna to ship to me (20 ink bottles will not fit into carry-on luggage!). When it arrived promptly at my house, I was completely surprised by how meticulously she had packaged my purchases. There was not a single chip on any of the glass bottles, nor any leakage. Impressive, considering how much glass and liquid ink was in that box! If I am back in the Jacksonville area again, I will definitely visit this shop again. I may, in fact, buy from her over the phone, too. She is very good! I only wish I lived closer, to take some classes.
