Thank you oceanna. First, let me take this opputunity to say many many thanks for posting many many pictures on this site, they are really helping me a lot. Now, coming to my problem, the work is not complete yet and we are having a long rectangular frame on the bended wall to the right where you see part of the painting(BTW, which I painted years ago:), just like the one on the left & opposite sides. Your idea is a good one, will have to see how the wrapped one looks.

Kees_Lover, Thank you for sharing your landscape prints framed showing me so many different ways a picture can be framed and look nice. I really do appreciate all the helpful people on this decorating site. I am now thinking that I like my print despite how much green it has so I have to decide on a frame. I will try to take pictures tomorrow. My sofa and recliner are called taupe but to me is a leather by Natuzzi that is more on the beige taupe side and is very neutral but does not like gold frames and since I have two glass lamps with chrome bases and chrome filaments on top of the very white shades on the glass tables next to the sofa and a triangle glass table in front with the green glass edging, BM Bone White Walls, White baseboard molding and Brazilian Cherry Floors, I am wondering if a Bronze frame will go or will it clash with the sofa or the chrome? Bronze is more of a brown right? I also like a brown espresso very ornate frame but I wonder if it would be too dark. My picture if of Japanese Maple trees with dark Pine Trees and some other lighter green trees and some trees with orange and yellow but the green dominates with red the second color. There is a bridge and a green pond probably from algae. My room needs some color so bad and I wish I had chosen a dark brown or Mahogany sofa and not taupe years ago since it took me a year to buy some furniture when I bought my first home. Do you think a 40"X 30"size print would be good that will get bigger with a mat and frame for an 81" long sofa? I never bought pictures before except for the small framed prints in 2007 from JCPenney. I went there and they have no more framed prints for sale in their store.

I would definitely expect there to be vertical frame members at every corner, with the size of each box varying to accommodate different wall lengths. In fact, I would expect there to be a vertical frame member on each side of each corner. The alternative of chopping up the horizontals to maintain a frame size that is unrelated to the dimensions of the room would strike me as silly. This is not wallpaper.

As a professional picture framer, I applaud anyone trying to do it themselves and save a buck. However, there are somethings that most people do not take into account when using ready made products. 98% of all ready made materials you buy are not acid free and do not provide UV protection. While this may not matter with a cheap run of the mill, easy to replace poster, it is really something to think about when it comes to making frames for art that cannot be replaced. If you take a look at some of the art you have framed yourself, you will most likely notice that the bevels of the mats have turned an orange-ish brown color. This is acid seeping though the mat and onto your art. Also, the color of the mat will change and your art will fade. Even something like a family picture or your childs art that they painted in kindergarten, once it is damaged, it cannot be replaced. To me, that is priceless. If you do go to a custom framer, be sure to ask for UV protecting glass, acid free mats and make sure they do not use any adhesives that are not water soluble on your art. Art does not mean it cost you a lot of money. Art means you like it enough to put on your wall or because it has sentimental value to you. Please take these into consideration before just slapping your art into composite frames with recycled glass.
