Canvas stretching, made special.
Delivering exceptional custom framing for canvas stretching for Fort Lauderdale since 2007
Not all Canvas Stretching is not created equal – it requires technique and a desire for it to be worthy/exceptional. It can be comparable to the made beds of an inn versus a 5-star hotel.
Framing Stretched Canvases
Did you know canvas stretching, aka canvas wrapping, is done to both preserve the artwork AND prepare it for framing? At The Frame Studio in Fort Lauderdale, FL, we thoughtfully guide you through each step of the process while educating you on your options.
Floater Frame
The floater frame is an “L” shaped frame that exposes the edges of the canvas. This frame will give the appearance of your stretched canvas floating in the middle of the frame or you have the option of having the canvas snug up to the edge of the floater. In either case, the edge of the wrapped canvas is never covered by the frame.
Standard Wood Frame
When using a standard wood frame for your stretched canvas, the lip of the frame will slightly cover the edge of the canvas. Wood frames are a great way to give a nice finishing touch to your custom stretched canvas.
No Frame
Lastly, a popular option for canvas stretching is to leave the artwork “as is” with no frame at all. With canvas wrapping/stretching, the unpainted or unprinted parts of the canvas are not seen on the sides, therefore the piece looks complete and professional after it is stretched. For those who prefer this display option, we will add a wire or wire hanger to the back of the stretcher so your design is ready to be hung unframed.
