Michelle and the team at Monroe Street Framing really value working with their customers. I've always had exceptional service that has only been outdone by the quality of work they provide.

What does one do with a 1/1 edition of some fantastic placemat art? Frame it, of course! (Mats are excellent for concealing grease spots.

We’ve noticed since our reopening that we have met a number of new (masked) faces and so we wanted to take a minute to express how appreciative we are that you selected us for your framing project. During times of uncertainty – COVID-19 – it’s often easier to stick with familiar patterns and places because we know what to expect. So to all of you that have trusted us to not only take care of your framing, but also your safety while visiting us for the first time, we are truly grateful.

Whether you have been with us for 35+ years, or have just found us, we appreciate you. We love what we do, and we love working with you. You make this business a place we love coming to day after day, and we truly wouldn’t exist without you. It’s in that light that if you’ve ever had a good experience with us we humbly invite you to write a few words, as a Google or Facebook review, that would help fellow framing enthusiasts when selecting a frame shop. There are many skilled picture framers in our area and we’re just happy to be yours!

Just want to pass along this update and reminder about our hours and business practices.

For the safety of our customers and staff, we are still currently available by appointment only, Wednesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. If you have any questions, we are always available via email or phone. We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience.

Remember, you can always find the latest information online at monroestreetframing.com!

Fine frames for finer art.

In addition to creating thematic regularity for pieces from a particular artist or of a certain style, a consistent look across your framed works can also ease matching to your home’s interior.

Hello friends:

You may have noticed a new mural at our shop. Created by the talented artists at @ohyastudio, it offers a simple statement, but powerful message: "LISTEN". We here at Monroe Street Framing support Black Lives Matter. We know that for all lives to matter, black and brown lives have to matter. And we also know that this is the time for us to listen. And learn. Even when it is hard and uncomfortable. Especially when it is hard and uncomfortable. We are listening and learning, looking for ways to become better allies within our community.

#listening

Let’s move forward, together.

@ohyastudio is adding some brightness to our storefront with a little something that nods to our entryway (by fellow OhYa collaborator @bkpickandroll). Stay tuned!

Hi friends:

Tomorrow, Monroe Street Framing will look a little different (as will some other businesses on Monroe Street). Different, but the same. Tonight, I decided to board our windows as a precautionary move -- no damage has occurred. We will be open as planned and look forward to seeing you. As a reminder, our current hours, by appointment, are: Tuesday-Thursday, 11am-4pm. We'll be posting new signage with our current hours tomorrow. A huge thank you to Johnson Construction for the fast and exceptional service, and to our friends at @mysterytomebooks for the help and camaraderie. And the biggest thank you to @metcalfetim for making this all happen. Thanks very much, and I hope you are all staying safe.

Take good care,
Michelle

It’s a pleasure working with @artsforallwi. Always happy to help.

As of Tuesday, May 26, we are now welcoming appointments for one-on-one framing/design consultations in the store. These are much like the framing consults you’ve had with us in the past with a few changes: • Only one in-store appointment will be taken at a time so that the space is kept open, clean, and safe for customers and our staff alike.
• We will be cleaning and sanitizing the shop, along with any samples that were used after each appointment.
• For our safety and yours, we ask that you wear a mask when you come into the shop. If you do not have a mask, we will have disposable masks that you can use. Hand sanitizer will also be provided for each visit—please use some when you arrive for your appointment and on your way out.
• If you are not feeling well, we ask that you reschedule your appointment and we will do the same for you should we not be feeling well.

We will also continue to schedule appointments for: • Curbside pick-up of completed framing orders;
• Curbside drop-off of new framing orders;
• Virtual framing consultations.

We’re always flattered when fans of the shop put us in the limelight:
“I have been listening to some old tunes lately, which includes the album Moving Pictures by @rush. In my travels this week, I see this...”

“We still have wonderful art for sale from our Call for Art Virtual Exhibition!

70% of sales go directly to the artist.

Take a look and get in touch to make a purchase at artsforallwi.org/programs/call-for-art/virtual-exhibition

Art shown here are details of "Like trees, you will grow" by Faye Willems, "Beaded Purse" by Patricia Simkowski, "Insomnia #2" by Bonnie Schetski, "Celine's Canvas Art" by Celine Schaetzer, and "Untitled" by K Wasson **IMAGES ARE THE PROPERTY OF THE ARTIST**”

Love this look on the bright side from @bellamoulding:
“One good thing about #stayinghome is more studio time. Taking inspo from this #gustavebaumann image in Diamanti frame. Revelling in the tiny details.”

Charlie and I worked on a new window display today. #shopdog #monroestreetmadison #frameshop #windowdisplay

Via @monroestreetmadison:
“Need a face mask? With the new recommendations, we know many people are looking for face masks. The Monroe Street Merchants has commissioned professionally-made cotton masks in a variety of colors and patterns. They are available now at Neuhauser Pharmacy for $10 with a portion of the proceeds going to promotions to help Monroe Street businesses recover from the pandemic once we are all able to reopen. It is a win-win.”

Thank you to all those that have purchased gift cards, placed or picked up orders, and have sent a message checking in during this wacky time. I'm so appreciative...for all of it, for all of you. I've been here, in this space, since 1998 and the longest I have ever been away was after my mastectomy in October 2018. I couldn't wait to get back then, and I really can't wait to get back now. Looking forward to being back here framing for you just as soon as possible. ❤

With love and gratitude,
Michelle
