Anyone with some VERY GOOD PROFESSIONAL sites that tell how to make frames,
the types of molding shapes, the size and color selections of the mats, the
size of the frames compared with the artwork.
I would like something by someone who is a professional and been in the
business. If not web sites perhaps a book or two.....mjh

There are no stupid questions.
There are a LOT of inquisitive idiots.

Here are some sites I use. Some sites that sell matboard require that you
buy 25 full size sheets. Dick Blick sells half sheets and require you buy
10. I just bought ten half size sheets from them for less than one full size
sheet from my local craft store. You can choose assorted colors and styles.

Never tell people you make frames, you will find no peace. If they find out
you can also mat, Katie bar the door.
Remember to allow for the optical illusion and add distance on the bottom of
the mats.

If you want to find professional sites, search for some professional brands
of archival matting like Bainbridge (Neilson-Bainbridge) and Crescent.
Also, a good source of supplies and books on museum quality archival
preservation is: www.lightimpressionsdirect.com
