what a great store the employees are very knowledgeable and very patient. The man in the framing department (Sam Prittie) Could not have done a better job. I had six good botanical prints framed and not only did they do a great job. They kept me notified as to any issues during the process. I can highly recommend this store and the employees you will not be disappointed.

Sam is immensely knowledgeable and has an absolutely amazing eye for framing. My wife and I brought our Ketubah in to graduate it from the funky frame we had it in to something that really elevates the thing that we most cherish from our wedding day.
Sam immediately suggested several fantastic frame and border pairings each one more striking than the last (we asked for something that felt extravagant since this piece is so important to us).
After we chose, Blick had the order completed in five days and we giddily picked it up on Sunday. Sam gave us some instructions for hanging up the piece and let us know that everyone in the store appreciated the paper cutting in our Ketubah, which is very sweet.
All told, this was a great experience, our Ketubah looks right at home now that we hung it up, and we will be choosing Blick for our future framing projects. Thanks!

I could not be happier with the job done by framing lead Sam Prittie at the 878 Peachtree store. Having collected art for many years this was one of the best experiences I have had with framing. Sam is not only a master of his craft but is incredibly professional and kind. His choices and creativity literally took my breath away. Every interaction with the store's staff has been just as wonderful.

Super helpful and reasonably priced. Had to get new mattes for prints and frames we already had and Sam cut it, framed it, and attached hanging wire as well, all done fairly quickly.

The Blick custom service canvas and framing is excellent! The Framing Lead Sam Prittie at 878 Peachtree St in Atlanta did an outstanding job with the framing of three of my pieces and stretching special fabric on the Blick’s stretcher bars. The framing is implacable and everyone has good things to say about them. I also appreciate the professionalism, effectiveness and excellent customer service.
In addition, all the staff in the branch is very helpful, welcoming and efficient.
Thank you!
