You could buy a frame from Habitat and then get one of them to just do you a mount in a colour of your choice. I did that with the one on Northcross Road and saved at least ?40 on framing. Just take the print and the frame in. (The frame needs to be a good two inches larger than the print, I'd say.

I've tried several in the area and the best value and promptest service is definitely David Mitchell Framers in Lewisham- 28 Loampit Hill SE13 7SW tel 020 8469 0078 NB they are closed on Wednesdays. http://david-mitchell-picture-frames-limited.business.site/

They are very friendly and helpful and half the price of some in SE22. They frame works for all major exhibitions as well as the general public. They only take a week to frame the work and are helpful if you need advice.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I took up minitoots?s suggestion and went to David Mitchell Framers this morning, friendly service and a reasonable price, I think. I was nervous doing this, had no idea what I wanted really or how much it would cost, but so far so good. I collect it next week.

I have just got frames back from David Mitchell based on the recommendation here. Pleased with the result, and found them really helpful in helping me pick the right frame and mount.


They told me the turnaround time would be two weeks because they're really busy. It was actually a bit quicker than that in the end. The shop was indeed really busy with customers when I went to collect in the late afternoon.

    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.
