Laura Stratton Artist Beautiful framing

Amazing customer service and incredible quality. Their online print and frame package is superb!! Great value with amazing finish!

Hudd Williams On line print and frame package is superb!

I give Coastal Framing and Design a full 5 stars. My beautiful Nepalese hand painted mandala is over sized, not square and fragile. I had consulted with 2 other framers who were not willing to touch it and then I had the good fortune to discover Coastal Framing and Design. I loved their “can do” attitude and the finished job is magnificent! I’m thrilled! Jen and Rex are lovely and very well priced. Super highly recommend. October 2020.

Melanie Clifford 5 stars
