Pricing using the artists own moulding??
Guys,
Question, I usually use my % mark up to cost for framing an artists work, but one artist has some moulding she wants to use up, so has asked me to frame a few canvas's in her moulding, any help on how to charge for this, maybe a rule of thumb??
Cheers
Johnny.

Re: EMERGENCY HELP!!!!
I'm open to anything really, I have thought of the backing board solution.......
Also going to try & twist the frame & underpin it, the joints aren't fixed, it's the canvas fixings that is holding everything together...

Re: EMERGENCY HELP!!!!
Hi Nigel,
No I didn't provide or stretch the canvas, I just need to get it straight and get it straight today
so any help.......... Don't think taking it off is an option...... As it will look a bit messy as it is not going to be framed.......
