canvas float frames
I’ve partnered with a local woodworker to make custom wood float frames available to purchase alongside your stretched canvas prints. While a frame isn’t necessary, they’re gorgeous and really finish off and elevate the artwork. :)
The frames are 2.5” deep and will add ~1” to each side of your canvas (i.e. if you order a vertical 24”x30” stretched canvas print, the final dimensions will be roughly 25” across, 31” tall, and 2.5” deep. The frames are made by hand in Bend, OR by Jesse Havens of Havenswood.
Please note: the canvas float frames only work with STRETCHED canvas prints. Unstretched canvas prints are flat (like paper) and can be framed just like you would a paper print.
how to order
step 1:
Choose a print from the print shop and add it to your cart. Canvas float frames are offered exclusively for stretched canvas prints only in all sizes, including diptychs (sets of 2), and triptychs (sets of 3).
step 2:
Choose a frame style below and select the size that corresponds to the canvas print that you selected in step 1. If you ordered a diptych, make sure to bump up your frame quantity to 2. If you ordered a triptych, bump it to 3!
step 3:
If you’d like to add embellishment to your print, you can do that here! Then, add everything to the cart, complete your purchase, and get excited for your customized artwork to arrive. :)

ready-made frames
I feel passionately that my art be both beautiful and accessible, which is why all of my prints are standard sizes. You should be able to pop any of my paper or unstretched canvas prints into a ready-made frame and be on your way. I’ve collected some of my favorites via ShopMy, LTK, Amazon, or you can shop by clicking any of the links below. Also, don’t miss my framing guide blog post, where I give specific frame recommendations based on the size of your print!
wait…how am I supposed to frame an unstretched canvas print?
Unstretched canvas prints are my newest addition to the print shop! They’re a lot like my paper prints (flat!), but instead of paper, they’re printed on canvas. The benefit is that the canvas doesn’t need to be protected by glass, so you can frame your unstretched canvas prints without the glass and avoid that pesky glare. I highly recommend these gorgeous frames by Alibi Interiors.
So how do you do it? Essentially, just the same way you would a paper print. If your frame has a mat, simply tape your unstretched canvas print to the back of the mat (preferably using acid-free tape), and reassemble the frame without the glass.
If your frame does not have a mat, adhere the print directly to the frame backer with some acid-free double-sided tape. Then reassemble the frame without the glass. I filmed a quick tutorial on instagram, if you’d like to have a look! :)
If you want to go the more professional route, you can take the print to a local frame shop and have them mount the print to a board, which could then be popped into your frame.
custom framing
While custom framing isn’t necessary, it’s always a great way to elevate your artwork. If you’re local to Bend, I highly recommend High Desert Frameworks. In Portland, I love I’ve Been Framed. And no matter where you live, I always love to recommend Framebridge.com or FrameItEasy.com.
