Art Festivals and Craft Shows can be some of the best parts of your business. Spending the day visiting with people who are enjoying your art, meeting other artists and being in a place that focuses on the end result of your work can be very rewarding.

Documounts wants to help you make it even more rewarding by helping you find the best matting and framing solutions to your artwork. We can help make your artwork stand out and look professional while keeping your costs down so that you can end the day with a larger profit.

 Here are some Art Fair Mat and Frame solutions that we recommend:

• Showcase Mat Kits - Do you want to make a bolder statement with your artwork? Do you like the look of a thick border and a window that is raised? The Showcase Mat Kits were made for a 5x7 image that will benefit from a dramatic setting. Showcase Mat Kit also comes with foam board and clear bags. In sets of 50.

• Mounting Board and Clear Bags - Maybe you want to sell your printed images without a mat. Keep it simple and as low priced as possible. We now have mounting board packs in standard sizes in quanitities of 25 and 50 in the 2UB chipboard (least expensive, about as thick as a mat) or in the standard foam board. You can then slip your print and the backing into a bag. We have bags for your 8.5 x 11 and 13 x 19 prints, as well as other sizes.  If you need a different size you can order custom cut mounting board at a great price.  Another interesting choice if you decide not to go with a mat is to use Black Foam Core.

• Plastic Adhesive Sawtooth Hangers - These little hangers will come in very handy in your booth or at your table. You can use them to hang up matted and bagged artwork on pegs and display racks and you can also use them to hang up matted and bagged artwork around your area. You will be surprised how much you use these little hangers. Comes in a box of 100.

• Standard Size Wood Frames - just add mats!  We have a few choices for ready made wood frames that will show off your artwork like only a fine wood frame can do. If you are comfortable with glass glazing, the ReadyMade Frames can not be beat! You get a discount when you buy identical ones in quantity. 10% off at 3 of a kind, and 20% off at 12 of a kind!

• Custom Wood and Metal Frames - We have a great selection of metal and wood frames that you can get in any size you need. Wood frames give you a significant discount when you get 4 frames. Those 4 frames can be any size and kind, So, mix and match for a great deal! Pricing on the wood builder will show you the difference in cost. Metal frames give a discount when you get 12 or more of the same kind.

• Display Holders - A great product to have in your art fair bag. These metal display holders fold  up for easy storage and can be adjusted to the angle you prefer. Perfect for propping up matted, framed artwork or signs. A very useful item around the house, too.
