How excited I was to find Frame 'N' Art again! On my way to PT I turned into a different entrance…read moreto the Lynnhaven Convenience Center & there it was. In the 90's it was located in a small shopping center near Lynnhaven Mall. Since my business had been located very close, I decided to give them a try with some of my precious memories. Year after year I returned numerous times to have the business beautifully frame & mat precious photos & playbills from my son's acting career. My Music Room walls are filled with them. They made old family pictures into beautiful works of art. The store was filled with frame choices. Knowledgeable employees would work with you on the best choices for frames & mats. The finished products were always gorgeous. It was sad when they disappeared from the Lynnhaven area location, I assumed the store had closed. So no framing for me has been done in the years since. Upon locating the store in Lynnhaven Convenience Center, I was anxious to see if the framing stock would be as extensive. It turned out to be more so. And there was a larger supply of other decorative accents & framed prints available for purchase. One of my theater memories that they had framed decades ago had been knocked off the wall & the glass had been broken. It was from a production my son had been featured in with Virginia Stage Company about 30 years ago. I had continued to postpone getting the glass replaced since I had not developed trust in another store. How excited I was to take it into Frame 'N' Art for repair. I had hoped to pick it up today but learned upon arrival that they close on Monday. The location of the shopping center is the north side of Virginia Beach Boulevard just west of its intersection with Lynnhaven Parkway. If coming from the east turn into the first, rather than the main entrance. There is plenty of parking. This store gets my highest recommendation. They do beautiful work.

They were having a mega framing sale, so I jumped on it! The project took 2-weeks to complete and when I got the pieces back, I was beyond thrilled! This store is always so helpful and organized. It's the closest thing to a party store in town also. I love when they have sales on their seasonal items.

This is the (current) manager. This is the product I was in search of (snow-tex). When asked…read morewhere it was (because it wasn't in aisle 81 as the website states), he decided to be confrontational with a *very* snarky "sir, I'm trying to help you", **AFTER** he stated they didn't have any if it wasn't in that aisle. The website shows 15 in stock. That aisle has been partitioned for Christmas ware so it was moved to make room for seasonal items. It was indeed moved. I found the item, all 15 of them, doing his job for him. 1). Do not become confrontational with a customer. 2). Let a customer finish speaking. 3). Don't be snarky with a customer. 4). Do your j-o-b. It's simple, especially when there less people in your store than bottles of snow-Tex on a shelf IN AISLE FIFTY SEVEN. Maybe he'll know where when if he bothers to read Yelp reviews about his own store to help improve customer service. Not my job to tell him. And 5). ? Some advice: You're there to help the customer. We make YOUR job happen. Retail isn't for everyone, but there are jobs where you can be far in the back of a warehouse and don't have to deal with the public. Just a thought.

I have used this shop for almost 15 years since I moved to Williamsburg. I have always found them…read moreto be curtious and their work professional. However, I have always left feeling that perhaps I had paid too much for their services. I recently took an already framed print in to have the print itself reseated in the frame and matting as it had come loose and was cockeyed. The young man working the shop that day quoted me a price of about $53 to open the paper backing of the frame, reset the print, and reseal the frame. I found this to be a bit excessive and asked for a further breakdown of the cost. Unable to answer acceptably, he only responded that this was their "standard charge" for that job on a print of that size (approximately 34"x24"). I declined to have them do the job. I checked with another framing shop in the local area... their price was $15 for the same job! Bottom line, The Framery gets an A for quality of work and customer service but an F for cost. I'll be sure to use my newly found framery shop for my future needs as their work is equally good and their customer service is outstanding.

The Framery LLC has great selection of frames. They also do a great design. Love this place.read more

SHOPPING EXTAVAGANZA! Wowwwwww Weeeee…read more..... Was in Chris Brown's childhood hometown, Tappahanock, Va. and ran across this sensational shop. Tappahanock although a small town near the bay noticeably has charm and a smig of culture. As I was driving on Route 17, I noticed the bright colored flags flying in the wind outside this store. I actually drove by but the items on the front porch and colorful flags caught my attention & made me turn around. YIPPEE, glad I did. Oh where, oh where do I start?!? Jewelry by Waxing Poetic, calendars, appointment books, bottle holders key rings, etc. by Lilly Pulitzer, Lafco candles, serving-ware, napkins, house flags, sleep wear, make up bags, travel case, greeting cards and much more. I shopped for over an hour as there were upstairs, downstairs rooms and the front porch area that displayed a multitude of things to browse through. All the items on the front porch area were 50% off. Can you say BARGAIN!!!! Once I finally finished shopping, I could not believe the price I paid. I thought they had not charged me for all the items I selected and was a Happy Camper once the sales associate reported she had charged me for all items. She even jokingly said she would charge me more if I wanted. In the words of the infamous Sweet Brown, "Ain't nobody got time for that". I am so elated about my LP appointment book, LP gifts for friends, several sleep wear tops, travel shoe shine kit, and ornate book markers. Customer Service is excellent. The sales associates/owner(s) are courteous and are not hovering over you as you shop. Can't wait until next month when I'm headed back down that way. You best believe I will be stopping here to shop. If you are ever near this place, you must stop in buy gifts for others or yourself. Happy Shopping!!!
