Those "ready made" frames already have the glass and the backing. Then you'll just need to choose a mat (which the pennant will rest on top of). Choose a subtle colored mat that has the same outer dimensions of the frame. They will cut it for you on the spot.

It's a piece of cake to put it together, and will cost about $55 instead of $400. Plus, Aaron Bros. has a permanent on-line coupon, good for 50% off any one item. Just Google "Aaron Brothers Coupons" and you'll find it.

Great suggestion, Mark, even if I never plan on being a "framed pennant guy."

Michael's has the same coupons every week, 40-60% off.

Good point.... Aaron Bros. and Michael's... same parent company. Aaron Bros. just tends to be a bit more high-end.

I had Aaron Bros in Vegas but we have Michaels in Salt Lake.

AB is for artists; Michaels seems to be for "crafters."

Here in NYC, its Michaels. One just opened in Manhattan and I know of one in Queens.

Personally, I like Hobby Lobby better. There isn't a Hobby Lobby close by though.

Here in Houston we have Michael's and Hobby Lobby as well. Never heard of Aaron Bros. I've had my framing done at Michael's (Travel posters...not pennants). It's not exactly cheap...even with their perpetual, always on sale, framing coupon.

I've got a 5 foot map of Manhattan neighborhoods that I've been meaning to take in...if I could just stop buying pennants, I'd have the money to frame it.

Check this place out. I do rock and roll "gig" posters. Most cost me about $80 w/matting.

It's about time for some pennant pictures. Here are some of my recent pick ups (with thanks to several members of this site...Rick, Matt, Mark). If I posted any of these previously, sorry.

Nice pennants. There are some tough ones in there.
