What are custom frame sizes?
Custom Frames Are Available In Odd Sizes You can buy a standard 8” X 10” frame in many stores. It may even have a matboard included, so it can be a “two in one” sized frame (one size if you include the mat, another size if you don’t).
How do you find the frame length?
Once you know the height and width of your picture frame, add the two measurements together and multiply that number by two. For example, if you are framing a print that is 11×14, you will add 11 and 14 to get 25. Then multiply that number by two to get 50. This is the total length of your print.
