Stretching or Framing your Canvas Print

  2. Stretching or Framing your Canvas Print

To have your canvas print stretched or framed, take it to your local picture framer. When you receive your rolled up print you will notice it has 4 white markings on each corner. These markings are for your local framer to use as registration marks to make sure it is being stretched evenly on the stretcher bars. An extra 2 inches (50mm) has been added on all 4 sides of the print to allow for stretching around stretcher bars. See the picture below:

When framing your print traditionally in a frame make sure the excess canvas is trimmed to the appropriate size. Do not leave the extra 2 inches on and then have it framed. See picture above.
