How to measure for your made to measure picture frame.

  • Always measure photo or art in the landscape way up.
  • We would prefer measurements in millimeters (mm) but you can use Inch’s.
  • Measurements are Width x Height .
  • Using a metric ruler .
  • Don't have a ruler, here are some printable paper rulers.
The only measurement you need is the full Width x Height of the item to be framed.

Looking at the photo the landscape way up, place a ruler or tape measure on one edge of the item,
measure from one side to the other side.

1st the Width
2nd the Height

See two measurement examples below.
