From the moment I called to make a request, Debbie and her team did everything in their power to assure my request were met. I had a very tight turn around time! Debbie and her team still didn't hesitate to turn around a frame same day, which no other framing shop has ever done in my experience. I was extremely grateful and glad I chose to work with Smiths.

I was greeted right away, and was given several options for glass types. This particular painting isn't a masterpiece or anything, so I opted for the basic ( non UV protected) glass. It was $15, including tax. A piece was cut to size for me and wrapped, and I was out the door in about 15 minutes. Speaking of masterpieces, there was lots of custom artwork for sale displayed on the walls, which made my wait time very pleasant as it allowed me to covet the beautiful, locally produced artwork.

I had been eyeing this place for awhile on Groupon and when myself and some girlfriends attended a…read morewomen's day event at the Hershey Lodge (way back in February) and came across their booth, I wanted to stop and check it out. We were able to buy a gift certificate directly from him a the Groupon price. I recommend giving him a call and asking about the deal he'll offer -- BUY LOCAL!!! First I have to say...Laird is very talented, loves what he does and you can tell. He's friendly and straight to the point when giving instructions. I highly recommend a visit to his cute little shop. When you walk in, his artwork is everywhere! From jewelry to glass creations and amazing stained glass art -- this is a great unique place to shop for gifts. He offers many different classes as well. Grab some of your girlfriends (or guy friends!!) and try one of his very reasonably priced classes. Parking is in a lot next to the building (off street parking). I bought a certificate for two to try the mosaic class. It is offered on the first and third Tuesdays of the month at 6 pm. I dragged my boyfriend along to get him to try something out of his comfort zone, and he enjoyed this first time experience. For the mosaic class we were given a nice size square "stone." Laird gave us some instructions and showed us where to pick our glass pieces that we were going to use. If taking this class, have something in mind BEFORE you show up as he leaves the design entirely up to you. He did show us a couple of examples of his work, but there was no way either one of us could stand up to his talent!! I felt like I took a little time trying to decide what design I wanted to do. No worries, I came up with a kind of "wave" idea and went with that. He has some really cool color glass and I already have an idea of what I would do on my next visit :) Just a tip: For those of you with longer nails, the tiny glass pieces can be challenging to pick up and place!! But I managed.... This class was fun and I highly recommend a visit/class!!

You can't just drop in for a can of varnish unless you have cash in your pocket. For someone who does not carry cash, it just isn't worth the hassle when I can go to a big box art store like Michaels and put the same can of varnish on my visa. I'd like to support small businesses, but they need to make themselves available. That said, if you need a framing job quickly, they are the place to go. With the big art stores outsourcing everything including custom mats and Framer's Workshop gone from the east shore, this is the only place in Harrisburg where you can go and expect to get something custom made within a few days. The quality and selection are great.
