Picture frames play a critical role in making your photo and art displays a gorgeous part of your home or office décor. A good frame, especially when combined with the right matting, finishes the look of a photo or piece of art. It also helps attract the eye to appreciate it, setting it apart from the surrounding space.
A dirty, dusty frame won’t do any favors for your home décor or the piece that’s framed, and it can easily distract from the pictures you actually want to be on display. Picture frames require regular care and cleaning in order to look their best and show off your photos and artwork at their finest.

Have you ever spent time in a mountain cabin or ski lodge? If so, you can picture the scene in your mind. Simple or grand, your surroundings may have included rugged furnishings, thick plaid blankets, wood-paneled or log walls, a stone fireplace crackling with flames, and glorious views of nature just outside the door. Some of us fall so in love with this ambiance that we want to recreate it at home. That's what Lodge Decor is all about.

Today’s world is media driven. Our lives are on full display over the internet. As such, it’s essential for anyone who’s in the public eye to present themselves in a unique and professional manner. And more times than not, the first way we present ourselves is through our appearance on a corporate website, one of many social media sites, or even printed advertisements. The public sees us and gets to “know” us by the way we present ourselves through these various forms of media.
