I have done 3 projects with PNG. First 2 were great; worked with Mary on 1 and I don't remember the gent's name on the other. Both beautiful and satisfactory. Fun framing suggestions, helped me create something beautiful that I will enjoy for years. 3rd project was a pencil drawing I did 20 years ago -- I'm not an artist, but it was pretty and valuable enough to keep for a long time. At the top of the sheet of lovely archival paper was a remnant of the glue from taking the page out of the tablet. This was a fun detail that added dimension. When I went to pick up the framed piece, the person said, "oh I cut off that glue at the top so it would look cleaner". I was shocked. I always appreciate a suggestion for improving something but a) if you are going to CUT OUT a part of a work you have been asked to frame ASK FIRST and b) I liked the original version pre-cut. Never going back to this place. read more

PMG Framing - Framed this oil painting on canvas. - Framing Near Me - San Diego, California

It sounds like Mary is the person to work with, we did not meet anyone name Mary, Came in on the weekend and the guys working were fine, but did not seem very knowledgeable and didn't have a strong aesthetic sense at all. Framing was fine. I think if you know exactly what you want. It's probably a fine choice. Overall, customer service was mid. read more

Mary and her staff were incredibly helpful, professional, and creative!

This is a wonderful framing store - professional, creative, lots of framing options, very reasonable, and fast! Seriously, what's not to like? I needed a very large picture framed (5 feet square) and I went to the closest framers and it was too big for them. Then I went to another framer that the first framer recommended and their turn-time was over 2 months - yes months - and their quote was almost twice the price! I ended up doing a search and found PMG Framing and the turn time was 2 weeks, the price was great and the work was fantastic. I have another painting the same size done by from framer and the quality is definitely not as professional as PMG Framing. They are located in a large antique warehouse and it's kind of fun to wonder around there as well. Plenty of parking and convenient business hours. I'm going to PMG Framing this weekend to get something else framed - they are now my go-framer after my last fantastic experience. read more

Mary is the best! In addition to matting and framing paintings, she has restored/cleaned numerous paintings and restored several frames for us - far faster than expected. I was absolutely amazed at how well she fixed a rather large hole in an old oil painting. Her prices are so reasonable that I don't feel uneasy buying a painting with issues because I know Mary can fix it! She is a delightful and very talented artist!!! I can't believe how lucky we are to have found her. read more

We were VERY pleased with PMG!! On a trip in 2015 to mainland China, we purchased a Chinese print painted by a student in the art school we had toured. It was an odd size so it required a custom frame. Patti Nelson did a wonderful job of making suggestions for both the matting and the frame. It came out looking wonderful and every time I look at it, it reminds me of our fabulous trip! PMG is locally found inside of Consignment Classics in Encinitas. If you get on their email mailing list, they often have "percent-off" sales which really help lower the cost!! read more

I highly recommend them to everyone looking for the best framing skills in the industry. I am definitely using them for all my framing jobs! read more

I've been told many times I'm too picky! Well I've finally found someone who is even pickier than me! I'm blown away on what a beautiful job Mary Brooks has done on our artwork! She is a complete perfectionist and a true professional ... very picky ... which is what you want when someone is handling something that means a lot to you.. like ARTWORK! I will always bring anything here to be matted and framed that means anything to me, knowing it's going to look amazing and PERFECT! read more

We just had our third piece of art framed here. Mary, who I believe is the owner, is fantastic. The first two we did on more of a budget and Mary was very respectful of that and brought out samples that were in our price range. The third one we went higher end and the result was beautiful. We are very happy with all of the work (and the prices.) There are thousands of frames and it's overwhelming, but she kept bring out suggestions and provided much appreciated guidance. We'll be back I'm sure. And they always get it done very fast. read more

My husband Linton comes here everytime we have art we will not go anywhere else. He usually consults with Mary who has such an artistic eye. I'm always amazed at the framing! I met Kimmy today for the first time found out she had a hand in framing one of our originals! Which absolutely turned out beautiful! We have never been disappointed. Wish more people knew about it but will recommend to all we can, check their FB out! The older beautiful woman is ours. In charcoal back and white. read more

Everyone at this business are super!! The young lady we first spoke to at the beginning of the restoration/framing adventure was so sweet, helpful, and knowledgeable. When we spoke with Mary she was awesome in answering questions and helping us with our choices. She ended up restoring an old painting and it is beautiful. She also helped us pick frames for a couple Disney lithographs and they came out just perfect. I have an old tray, that was embroidered by hand, that needed glass. The gentleman that worked on that piece ended up using museum glass and it came out beautifully. I am so pleased with this business. I recommend it to everyone. If it meets your needs you will not be disappointed. Thank you PMG Framing for all your efforts, time , and knowledge. I definitely would use this business again and again. read more

This Place is wonderful! Kimmy is super awesome, very professional, and knowledgeable.

Mary, Kimmy, and Brian have been doing my framing for years and they are THE BEST! They are very professional and courteous, and they do excellent work. Mary always takes time to help me find the perfect frame to fit my budget and make the art really shine. The prices are very competitive and the work is far far better than something you'd get at the bigger shops like Micheal's or Aaron Brothers. They also do painting restoration and cleanings -- again for a very reasonable price with great results. Do yourself a favor and forget the chain stores forever. PMG makes art fun and fabulous! read more
