I’m so impressed with Stacia/Tacoma Frame Makers. … the needlepoint was more of a rhombus shape prior to framing, which happens in the stitching process, so finding a shop that could not just frame it but also block it (straighten it) was a priority for me, and Stacia nailed it. When you’ve spent countless hours on something you want to know it’s going to taken care and this exceeded my expectations. It just glows, I couldn’t be happier.

I took my three largest cross stitch pieces in to be framed and couldn't be happier with how they turned out! Stacia was incredibly helpful with the process of choosing mats and frames, and they took so much care to preserve and mount my stitch work. Absolutely worth the price for keepsake pieces.

I have had several pieces framed here. And every time it’s worth every penny. My most recent frame job was my son’s prom suit and prom photo. … Frame Makers took the project on with care and compassion. This project couldn’t have come out better.

We’re based in Western Australia, literally the other side of the world, and needed a custom frame for a special boomerang gift. Stacia went above and beyond to help us make it happen. Despite the distance and tight timeline, her communication and support was fantastic, she even collected the boomerang from our hotel and returned it that same day.

An outstanding team that was capable of assisting in building a military box/frame plaque with minimal time. Friendly staff who take pride in their work.

They did a fantastic job mounting a family heirloom for an anniversary gift. It was clear that they were very knowledgable on how to properly preserve pieces. The finished product far surpassed my expectations. They had piles of options and were helpful in generating advice to get what I was looking for. Worth every penny spent.

Had a wonderful experience at Tacoma Frame Makers. Stacia is great at what she does and had very helpful suggestions. I had a jersey framed for my boyfriend and it turned out amazing-- he loves it!

Stacia was very friendly and professional. She went out of her way to get my cross-stitch piece finished and back to me before Christmas. The framing was fantastic. I will definitely be going back.
