Framing

In-Store + Custom

Framing is the finishing touch—the part that turns a print you love into something that feels settled, intentional, and ready to live on the wall. We don’t sell frames directly through our webshop, but we do offer framing through the shop, and we can ship frames if you reach out.

Looking for custom framing in Dallas for an art print or poster? We Are 1976 offers in-store framing for prints purchased from us (online or in person) and outside artwork framing by request. We don’t sell frames directly through our webshop, but we can create a custom framing order and ship frames if you contact us.

To get started:

Email hello@weare1976 or call 214.821.1976 (during store hours) and we’ll take it from there.

If your print was purchased on our website, please include the web order number (or the name/email used on the order).

Our In-Store Frame Style

Our signature in-store frames are made for us by a local framer we’ve worked with for over 10 years. The style is clean and modern with a simple profile—substantial enough to feel gallery-ready, but quiet enough to let the artwork lead. It’s a versatile look that works beautifully with art prints, risographs, photography, illustration, and posters, whether you’re framing one special piece or building a full gallery wall.

In-Store Molding Finishes

This molding is available in:

  • Black stain

  • White stain

  • Natural (raw)

  • Light natural

Not sure which finish to choose?

Black feels classic and graphic, white is bright and minimal, and the natural tones add warmth—especially in wood-heavy rooms or softer color palettes.

Process

1) Reach out

Email hello@weare1976 or call 214.821.1976 (during store hours). Share the size of your artwork (or send a photo of the label/packing slip) and let us know whether it was purchased from We Are 1976 or is an outside piece.

If your print was purchased from our website, tell us which web order the framing is associated with.

2) Confirm options + get a quote

We’ll confirm the exact size and recommend the best approach—our in-stock molding finishes, optional matting, or special-order molding if you want a different look.

  • Matting is available for an additional charge, and we’ll quote it once sizing is confirmed.

  • Pricing is based on the number of pieces purchased from our store.

  • Outside work framing (anything not purchased from We Are 1976) is subject to a surcharge. This surcharge applies to the entire framing job (not just matting).

3) We send a custom order

Once everything is confirmed, we’ll send you a custom order to complete.

4) Turnaround + pickup/shipping

  • If the frame is already in stock, turnaround is typically same day.

  • Custom framing is usually 1–2 weeks.

  • Special-order molding turnaround can vary depending on how long it takes for the molding to arrive.

    We can arrange in-store pickup or shipping when you contact us.

What to Send Us

Including the details below helps us give you an accurate quote faster:

  • Print size (and if there’s a border, the image size too)

  • Whether it was purchased from We Are 1976 or is outside artwork

  • If purchased from our website: the web order number (or the name/email used on the order)

  • Number of pieces you’d like framed (especially if you’re framing multiple)

  • Preferred finish: black / white / natural (raw) / light natural

  • Matting: yes/no + bright white vs warm white (if you have a preference)

  • Pickup or shipping + your zip code (or shipping address)

Best option: bring the artwork into the shop so we can confirm fit in person.

Not local? Send exact measurements + a couple photos and we’ll guide you remotely.

Matting

Not sure if you need a mat? Matting is especially helpful for in-between sizes, deckled edges, or when you want more breathing room around the artwork for a cleaner, more “gallery” look. Matting is available for an additional charge, and we’ll quote it once the exact size is confirmed.

Custom Orders

Want a different frame profile or finish? We can source other moldings beyond our in-store style. These are handled as custom orders, so cost and turnaround may differ depending on the molding selected and how quickly it can be brought in.

Outside Work Framing 

We’re happy to frame artwork purchased elsewhere. Outside work framing is subject to a surcharge, and we’ll quote based on the size, options, and the number of pieces in your framing order.

Quick FAQ

Do you sell frames on your webshop?

Not directly. Framing is handled by request so we can confirm the best fit and send a custom order. We can ship frames—just contact us.

Can you frame prints purchased from your website?

Yes—contact us first so we can confirm details and create your custom order. Please include the web order number (or the name/email used on the order).

Email hello@weare1976 or call 214.821.1976 (during store hours).

What if my print wasn’t purchased from We Are 1976?

We can still frame it. Outside work framing is subject to a surcharge, and we’ll quote based on your piece(s), sizing, and options.

Do you offer matting?

Yes. Matting is available for an additional charge, and we’ll quote once we confirm the exact size.

How long will it take?

If the frame is in stock, turnaround is typically same day. Most custom framing is 1–2 weeks, and special-order molding timing varies based on availability.
