Guest our-home Report post Posted September 11, 2008 Hi We got 3 of our canvas paintings mounted at G S Art Framing Services at Blk 338 Ang Mo Kio Ave 1. Small shop that had a work-room at the back, elderly couple managing the shop. We compared prices between 4 shops in Serangoon North, Serangoon Central and AMK before sending to them. Cost us about 40% less than other shops' quotes, but that was over a year ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But prices are not that cheap there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lipton 0 Report post Posted July 28, 2009 Is it possible for the article to be framed up to be part of the frame itself? Not sure if i am making any sense, the article is mounted on a wooden board without any glass cover and coated with a matt paint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
