Pre-Cut Mats

Why include a mat in your picture frame? A mat is an easy way to complement a wide variety of framed objects, including certificates, awards, photos, watercolor paintings, art prints, and mixed media projects! A mat gives the contents of the frame room to breathe both figuratively and literally. It not only provides extra space between your photo and the frame, providing a clean border that allows the artwork to shine, but it also protects your picture from touching the glass or acrylic of the frame, which can cause damage over time. Mats come in a variety of colors that will make your photos pop. A white or black mat can give your artwork a refined look, while a color mat can be used to highlight a particular shade in the piece that it surrounds. Enhance a gallery wall with mats in varied colors that complement each other and the palette of the room. A mat is especially useful when it comes to smaller pieces as it allows them to be put into a larger frame when a display calls for it. It also adds depth to the contents of frame, which is intensified further with a double or triple mat. Give your framed pieces visual appeal and preserve them for years to come with a pre-cut mat!
