Matboard & Picture Frame Matting Options
Matboard is a key element in custom picture framing. On a practical level it positions and protects, on an artistic level it leads the eye to the art or object in the frame. Different color combinations, border dimensions, and positioning can enhance your artwork and memorabilia in ways you never thought possible.
