Mike is spot-on regarding the expense of going this route. There's so much wasted space, and it's annoying to have to pay for it.

Haven't framed any of mine yet but appreciate this thread as it is helpful. I can't get over the wasted space in the rectangular framing styles. If I were to go with professional framing I believe I would have to go with a custom triangular frame or mount complimentary items around the piece. The blank spaces detract too much IMHO.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the input. Decided to go with a frame the has an aged look, not to double mat and tried to pick up a bit of the lighter color in the pants in the mat. Decided against thread, instead went with a taped back in just a couple of spots.

Thanks again for all your thoughts and sharing your examples.

Cheers,
Barry
