I had the most incredible experience getting five pieces custom framed and even snagged a sixth right from the showroom! Jill is absolutely amazing! She walked me through every step of the framing process, from picking the perfect frame style to choosing the ideal matting size and figuring out the best placement in my home. I never felt rushed; she was so patient and attentive, making the whole experience a blast! Honestly, I could have easily spent the entire afternoon with her--time flew by! I couldn't wait to return, and I brought back even more items, including a blanket (though I had to hit pause because of a vacation coming up). I've used Print Unlimitd in the past, and I'm back because I was just so thrilled with the quality! Plus, Jill gave me the pricing on the spot, and I truly felt like I scored a fantastic deal. You really do get what you pay for, so I can't wait to go back again and again! read more

Looking for a frame to compliment a print is a tedious chore as there are so many places in Chicago to choose from. I was able to find Prints Unlimited and Jill was able to narrow down my selection like a puzzle sorting out different color mattes and frames. Jill was able to quote me a price minus a check-in discount (under $600) which made this final product come to life. The final product was mention to take 3 weeks but after 2 weeks, I got the call to come pick the print up. I am glad Prints Unlimited made this process easy and the price was very affordable. Highly recommend Prints Unlimited to anyone who is trying to match a print to frame. read more

I've gotten so many lovely pieces of art framed here, and I love how Bunny has helped me through the whole process each time: helping pick the different frames and mats, floats and sizes! It's like a little bit of art on its own and each one enhances the piece. It's not a fast process, and of course there's always a bit of a wait for production, but they do such an amazing job! I'm coming back for sure! read more

Adulting is when you bring in your own pictures, art work, or even diplomas in for custom framing. My wife and I have used Prints Unlimited for several things we wanted to get framed. While we did have a prior stint with another local shop down fullerton, prices seem to be the same when we got quotes for the same piece of art we were looking to get framed... the only difference. The service! The staff at Prints Unlimited is great. Typically we've worked with Bunny but anyone you get here is knowledgable, professional, and will help with whatever framing needs you have. Highly recommended and be sure to check in on Yelp for their discount code! 'Til next time, cheers! read more

Bunny Powers is amazing and I love her. She worked at (managed/owned?) a frame shop in the Loop for ages. Our friend recommended that we go to her and she took great care of framing our three HUGE prints. Now she works at Prints Unlimited. I recently brought a large painting to Bunny at Prints Unlimited. The painting was so large that we had to put down the seats in our car and needed two people to put in or take it out. Bunny immediately knew just what I needed: a black floating frame. She took careful measurements and did calculations. Additionally, our painting was warped and needed to be re-stretched. She gave me 20% off. I felt confident that everything would be done to perfection. Bunny and I emailed back and forth about the status of the framing. She called when I could pick it up about a week later. Other employees were at the shop when I picked it up. The painting was wrapped in cardboard and brown paper like a present. We brought it home and we were delighted that it was no longer warped and looked AMAZING in the frame (see my before and after pictures below). Unfortunately, it wasn't perfect. The frame was warped on the top and bottom - bowing outward away from the painting. Also, there was a pink mark on the corner of the artwork that was not there before. Long story short - Prints Unlimited fixed all of it, but it was SOOOO obnoxious and disheartening. We had to bring the painting back to the shop and pick it up again. Bunny would never have let the painting leave the shop without first being inspected for quality craftsmanship and it's too bad she wasn't there when I picked it up the first time. read more

I had an oversized art frame request and they did it perfectly. The manger Jill was super responsible and he answered all my questions super fast. I understand under COVID, it is hard to keep the timeline but Jill was on top of things and had our art frame installed within our timeline. The frame is exactly what we expected, the glass is beautiful. I highly recommend it! read more

Couldn't be happier with my first experience with Prints Unlimited and the very professional and responsive manager Jill Petillo. She designed a frame and mat for a large--60" x 34" drawing--that didn't "break the bank." The final product really exceeded my expectations--and the framing was completed several days earlier than anticipated. read more

My favorite frame shop in Chicago. They do excellent work here and always find the right frame for my posters and paintings. The customer service is friendly and excellent, and their treat their customers with respect. I also love how they track your previous framing purchases in their system so it's easy to recall what you did and when so you can repeat the frame style on additional pieces. read more

Jill is the absolute best to work with. My fiancé and I recently bought a condo and had an idea of hanging some of our favorite things on our main wall. We needed to get everything framed and figure out a layout for the wall. Jill suggested awesome frames and borders to start. The turnaround time was beyond expected. She set up a hanging appointment with Don on a Sunday. He was fantastic. We loved talking to him and we're amazed at how quickly he was able to hang everything. He made sure everything was level before leaving. We could not be happier with our experience and will be back for more framing!! read more

This place is delightful. The staff are super helpful, and the end product is excellent. I needed a certificate framed, and I wanted bright red, so I was cautious about the place I went. Red can be tough to match, and there are not always good options for frame styles. But Jill was extremely helpful, showing me all kinds of options, very patiently and helpfully getting me to the right frame for my needs. I had also explained that there was a time constraint - I was hoping to present the framed certificate in a week. Jill was honest about the limitations (they had to order part of my frame), but promised to get it done as quickly as possible. As it turns out, they were done 3 days early, and were very quick to let me know and facilitate the pick-up. In addition, the price was absolutely fair. Quality usually doesn't come at a steep discount, so I didn't expect that, but I was happy with the price they gave me. While I was there, I saw a really nice print, already framed and on sale, that I bought on impulse. Great decision - it's hanging in our entry, and I LOVE it! They did a beautiful job framing that, too - I didn't even know I wanted it, and I'm so happy they had it, and now I have it! Love this place - will continue to go there for framing. You should too! read more

This place is awesome. Had a photo that I wanted to enlarge and have framed. Jill was great and answered all my email questions quickly and helped me achieve the idea I had in my head. The work was delivered in the time frame discussed. Met Bunny when I went to pick up the print. Was very accommodating with a last minute pick up time. Both these ladies are great and a pleasure to have dealt with. I will definitely be back with any other framing and printing needs. Thank you both for everything you do and keep up the great work. read more

Can't thank Prints Unlimited and Bunny enough! I came here with a very large and damaged art print after getting quotes from about 4 other frame shops. Prints Unlimited gave me the best quote by far for a new frame and plexiglass (about $300 when other shops quoted me $500-1000). Bunny walked me through our options to fix the damage, and I am so happy with how it turned out! It looks brand new. Big thanks to Prints Unlimited and Bunny. read more

I have been coming to this store for 5+ years. A loyal customer. Never again. I just had the single most off-putting interaction with the angry, awkward bald man behind the counter. The store was absolutely empty. I now certainly understand why. Rule 101. Don't insult your clients. Rule 102. Don't insult your loyal repeat clients Rule 103. Terminate angry, awkward bald man behind counter before you lose more loyal repeat clients. read more

I have had many things framed by prints unlimited galleries, pictures, drawings and diplomas the staff is always helpful, making great suggestions on frames and mats. the pricing is reasonable as well. I just wish they reopen the downtown location, its so much more convenient for me :) read more

This review is way overdue! I have had over a dozen items framed at Prints Unlimited and I have been very pleased with the care and attention to detail Bunny has for each one. From a standard poster to antique family photos, shadow boxes and military flags, I was confident that once I brought them in to Bunny she would help select the right frame and create beautiful pieces to fill our home! read more

Prints Unlimited Galleries - Our latest gem! Thank you, Bunny!!! - Art Galleries Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This was my first time getting anything professionally framed. I've long drooled over those large Chicago Neighborhood posters and finally bought myself one... I needed to get it framed. Not only was the woman who worked at the store/gallery helpful over the phone by taking time to give me an estimate based on what info I could give her, she was equally helpful when I went into the store. They had the best prices of all the stores I phoned and as it turned out they had a pre-framed version of the same poster I bought and it turned out to be cheaper than my poster and a separate frame combined! I cheerfully bought my new framed Chicago Neighborhood poster (which she informed me were probably not going to be produced much longer because the artist who was doing them closed up shop) and plan on returning my originally purchased unframed poster to Amazon.com. Saved myself some money. I highly recommend this place. They not only custom frame but they customize their service to their customers. read more

I brought in two pieces, an old map and my diploma. I was on a budget and the staff member was very understanding and friendly. I couldn't decide on what colour to choose as the background colour for my diploma and I finally settled on gold and black after trying 5 different colours. She was amazing with her suggestions and very patient with me...that takes a lot of patience! They also have a great glass selection, my map is gold and it would reflect a lot of light, the glass it had on the frame did not help. She suggested the museum glass, it has worked amazingly great even after almost a year with no cleaning (I'm a lazy person). Prices are amazing for the quality, I've been to more expensive places that provide the same quality of frames but lack the great customer service. I will be back to frame my Master's diploma! read more

There are few times where I have received as good of service as I have visiting prints unlimited. Every time I come in to get something framed they treat me very well. for example, the other day Jill helped me find a great black frame for a print of my pet poodle. I look forwards to coming on again. read more

Can't say enough good things about Bunny and Prints Unlimited Galleries. Recently bought a black and white Hermon Leonard photo that I have been eyeing for years - signed, limited edition. So really wanted to have it framed well and protected. We decided to try Prints Unlimited and really lucked out. Bunny was extremely knowledgeable about the best options and made several suggestions in different price ranges but without being at all pushy for us to buy the higher priced frame and glass. But given the value of the photo, we wanted to show it off and bought the higher priced option. Right on time a few weeks later we had our framed photo and it was just beautiful - exactly what we wanted. We liked the service so much we brought in a larger vintage poster reprint that I had framed at The Great Frame It or one of those self-serve places years ago. And it looked self-serve. The frame bowed out with the plexiglass separated and the frame itself was nothing to speak of. Brought it in, went with one of Bunny's recommendation and again in a few weeks and right on time, we had our posted in a handsome new frame without the bowing. Would go back to this store in a heart beat for any framing we would need done. Not only is Bunny knowledgeable, she is very professional, very nice, and a ton of fun to talk with. Felt like we were old friends after only a few minutes. Highest recommendation - a real Chicago gem. read more

In college, it may have been acceptable to tape posters & prints on the wall. I guess we're at the point now where we're adults and we want to get things framed. However, I don't necessarily want to pay an arm and a leg for it. I recently purchased a print (18 X 24) online for a friend's upcoming birthday and then set off to find places to frame it. Wow, I was not expecting it to be so expensive! I was quoted ridiculous prices across the city, and through reading some Yelp reviews, found Prints Unlimited Galleries. So I decided to drop by for a quote as various reviewers had found success here. The moment I walked in I was greeted by Jill who was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I let her know that I did not want to pay a ton for framing, considering what I was getting framed was not very expensive. She gave me various options - sticking to my low budget and gave me 2 quotes - both with/without matting. Initially, I was only going to do framing but she did such a perfect job matching the matting to the print and for the extra $20 or so, I went with it. I really liked how she took the time to explain things to me and never pressured me to purchase a more expensive frame, or pay for extras such as preservation, etc. that I didn't need for this particular print. I really appreciated that! I was able to get this gift framed & matted for a little over $80 - almost half of what I was quoted elsewhere. The print was ready to pick up in less than a week & I couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. It looked better than we thought it would and it was ready to hang with a sturdy backing. I will definitely come back here for any future framing needs. If you need something framed - definitely give this place a try. Great service and prices, and conveniently located a few blocks from the DePaul campus. read more

Great place to go for all your custom framing needs. I learned about them from my decorator. I needed several (over 20 photos) and artwork framed and placques created for my home. They did an excellent job with all. In addition, the customer service is great. They are responsive and did not try to oversell me on options. I worked primarily with Jill but Bunnie and Adam were also always helpful and professional when I stopped by. I'll definitely be back! read more

This place is awesome! I came in to their store today just for estimates. Bunny and Jill were super friendly and helpful. They gave me tons of great ideas and options for framing 3 pieces. Also, their prices are very competitive. I highly recommend them for any framing needs. They provide great customer service, great creative ideas and great pricing. read more

I have bought framed artwork here and have gotten my own art framed here. I highly recommend Prints Unlimited. Jill is very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The store has great prices and an amazing amount of matts and frames that are sure to suit any style. A+. read more

My daughter told me she had a poster that she wanted to frame simply and quickly and I took it to her nearest different frame shop (NOT Prints They quoted her $99 plus tax for a simple, thin frame without matting. I thought she could do it more cheaply elsewhere. They shrugged and told her they had "comparable pricing to nearby stores" and that "no one could do this job for less than about $90". Turns out, they don't have comparable pricing! Prints Unlimited charged $64 for the framing. Total. Including tax. Plus, the salesperson, Jill, is very nice. She had stuff framed here before, and it looks great in her apt. Just as good as it would look if she spent $40 more on it. read more

Amazing customer service! I went here to get our Ketubah framed and Bunny helped my find a beautiful frame. She took the time to show me all the options and is incredibly knowledgeable. read more

Jill Petillo and Prints Unlimited are fantastic! For a minimal look on a tight budget Jill suggested a dry mount, which she described as mounting my print to a piece of MDF board with a 1/2 inch black bevel border around the image. The back of the board had notches along the top for easy hanging. She is very knowledgeable and assessed the process with care, which led me to an informed, quality decision. By the end of our time together I felt like I had made a friend. read more

I've been shopping at Prints Unlimited for years. The prices and selections are great! Jill is too awesome!

I can't recommend this place enough for two reasons: 1) Price. We initially went to another 5 star rated custom framing store on Yelp and we were stunned by the price quoted. We then went to Michaels (note: no one ever pays full price at Michaels look for coupons online) and the options they had were inferior. Prints Unlimited gave us the best price. 2) Input/Service/Help. After being stunned by the 1st price quote we received (at a different store), we were resigned to looking for the cheapest framing option. The owner at Prints Unlimited taught us some basic framing principles (pick the frame to match the art, not the room) and suggested a different framing option (shadow box with a mat) that aesthetically worked much better than our initial 'go with the cheapest option' mindset. He was respectful of our budget, respectful that we knew little about framing, and gave his sincere input to help us make the best decision possible. Had we not gone to Prints Unlimited, we likely would have paid more for an inferior frame. The value we received from this store went far beyond just a cheaper price. And the photos we had framed look just amazing, they complete our living room and look museum quality - we couldn't be more happy with how they look. read more

Great place... Jill and Sara are always fun to work with. They have a huge selection of frames. Lower priced stuff for the kids paintings/posters and higher end frames for the finer pieces. I framed a pretty big poster for a hundred bucks, not sure how they stay in business with prices that low! I love how everything is wrapped in paper when you pick it up, makes it easy to sneak gifts in the house for the big reveal later. Thanks for the years of ever changing artwork in the window too. It's always a little pick me up to see your latest pieces. read more

I've sent friends and family to Prints Unlimited for framing. Their prices are reasonable (less than the franchised stores for sure and not snooty like some galleries) Also, the staff is knowledgeable and have an artistic eye. It's also fun to browse through some of the loose prints which they have displayed for sale. read more

This is an amazing place. We had two very large canvases framed and they were able to advise which type of frame was best to support the weight, etc. It turned out beautiful. Work was done on time and the cost was beyond reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

Amazing shop. Great pieces, great prices. I came in seeking a piece that was (sadly) already sold and Jill remembered exactly what it was and ordered it for me. She even printed me off a picture of it! Great customer service. read more

So glad I discovered this place! Their work is fabulous and they are highly talented in quickly recommending frame and mat options, reasonably priced and very cheerful. Employees seem to love what they do. Will definitely be a return customer!! read more

I worked with Jill, who was very knowledgeable and professional. They had a wide range of frames to choose from, and the prices were extremely reasonable. And for a small fee, they'll even deliver the finished product to you! We placed the order last week, and it's getting delivered next week, so will update this post on the quality of the frame once I see it, but wanted to share the great customer service we received when placing the order! read more

We drove from Milwaukee to Chicago because we saw numerous great reviews on this store. We were very happy with the service we received from Jill and the owner, his name escapes me. We told them what we were looking for, and the owner spent time with us to assist. The quality of the work was really good and then it was delivered to Milwaukee by their driver. Great people, great work and great service! We will be back. read more

I love shopping here for artwork. They always have something unique to offer. As a designer, I'm always shopping for artwork and I get tired of seeing the same thing everywhere else. The staff is extremely helpful and the prices are very reasonable. read more

they were very helpful to me in selecting a frame for a large piece of artwork. Very friendly and helpful.

unframed art in your house is very youthful, after getting married we decided we really should have everything in frames. You can just stick any old frame on a cool poster or print, if you want it to look right you gotta get it matted and framed all nice. Prints unlimited can now boast to have framed all of the artwork in my home! These guys do it right, at a fair price and as fast as you need it. Chicago neighborhood poster, check! worlds fair poster, Check! Hawaii posters, check and check! They have it all here, no need to go anywhere else or attempt the tedious and annoying task of trying to frame your own stuff. read more
