Framed

This post is an appeal for information: something that I don't do often, as few readers leave me any comments. But I need your help.

I'm mainly looking for help in the Ottawa area but will also take suggestions by anyone in Canada or the United States, within reason.

I'm looking for picture frames: frames that would fit a 16" x 9" photo, preferably with a mat. The frame would preferably be black but I would also consider white or silver.

I'm looking to print some of my photos and I've cropped some of them to this dimension. I've looked on Amazon for frames with this dimension but I'm often reluctant to use Amazon and, anyway, I haven't seen anything that matches what I need.

An example of what I want to print.

I've started looking into custom frame shops, and after I got over initial sticker shock, I'm still pursuing this line but I'm looking for recommendations.

I don't know if soliciting help through my blog site is the best avenue but I thought I'd cast a wide net. Or put multiple irons in the fire. Or put my eggs in different baskets.

Whatever.

I have shopped at IKEA for most of my picture frames but they don't seem to make frames in this dimension. The frame could even be 32 x 18 or anywhere in between that size and 16 x 9, but I need that dimension.

If you have a good suggestion, please leave it in the Comments section. If you don't want to leave it there, please e-mail me at brownknowser@gmail.com. Or you can reach out to me directly if you know any of my other means of communication.

Getting prints of my photos to match those dimensions is another challenge but I think I can handle that one.

Thanks in advance.
