Picture this: You've just received a beautiful print, and you can't wait to give it the showcase it deserves. But hang on a minute—"what frame size do I need?"
Well, fret not, because we've got you covered.
At Lelloliving, we offer a range of stylish black, grey or white wood frame, as well as top-notch solid oak picture frames.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll dig deep into the art of framing A5, A4, A3, and A2 prints, so keep reading!
The first rule of framing: size matters. An A5 print measures 148 x 210 mm. This size usually fits snugly into an A5 frame. However, frames often include a bit of extra space for mounting.
For example, you've just bought an adorable A5 custom print, but you want it to pop. That's where mounting comes in.
A mount acts like a border that adds extra style and draws the eye. If you choose to add a mount, you'll need an A4 picture frame. The mount will reduce the frame’s visible area to fit your A5 print. Simple, yet effective.
Solid oak frames offer both durability and a touch of class. Our range of solid oak picture frames ,these A5 frames are high quality, but affordable. They're not just frames; they're a statement.
An A4 print is a bit more expansive at 210 x 297 mm. It’s like the A5 frames' big brother. Most people pop these into A4 frames without much fuss.
But let’s say you’ve got a dazzling A4 botanical print. You want to give it that extra oomph.
In that case, a mount will be your best friend, elevating your print to gallery status. And for that, you'd need an A3 picture frame.
So you're into bigger prints, huh? An A3 print measures 297 x 420 mm. These A3 poster frames fill up more wall space and give off a grand vibe, especially as a set of 6.
You can opt for our range of wooden picture frames. From black frames or white wooden frames to grey frames, a simple wood frame complements any modern home décor. They're affordable, stylish, and let’s face it, a bit of a show-off.
If you decide to go grander with a mount, your A3 print will call an A2 picture frame its home. Trust us, it’s like moving from a flat to a penthouse.
Now we're in the big leagues. An A2 print measures 420 x 594 mm. An A2 frame is into wall-dominating, conversation-starting territory. An A2 poster frame sits nicely above a mantlepiece or armchair or fills a nook.
If you decide on a mount (you ambitious thing, you), then you're venturing into even bigger frame sizes.
We're entering the realm of the gigantic with A1 prints, measuring a whopping 594 x 841 mm. If you have artwork or a print that is this size, it’s likely the centrepiece of the room.
When framing an A1 print, you’d naturally look for an A1 frame - these are very large wooden picture frames.
Picture this: an enormous A1 Japanese print in a large wooden frame making everyone’s jaw drop as they enter your home.
So there you have it—a deep dive into framing prints of various sizes. From solid oak picture frames to wood picture frames, Lelloliving offers a variety of options for all your framing needs.
