    Hi,,, I recently got a 11x14 picture of my son done. I'm looking to get it in a mounted frame but I can't find the size anywhere. I just want something cheap and cheerful for now as I will be moving next year and do not now my colour scheme yet so no point paying a lot now. Thanks for any help

    Try IKEA. Their range of frames may include that size I think.

    ikea frames are metric.be very careful as they almost always dont convert into inch sizes nicely

    True, just grab one of those paper measuring tapes as you walk in.

    and make sure you can actually check the corners, as most frames have corner protectors on you cant see if the joints are bad etc

    as for measuring, its more that the mount will be cut to a metric size and therefore wont normally nicely fit the image if its an imperial printed size

    hey but what do i know, i just make them for a living he he
