"When picking the size of your frame you want to think about where you are going to put it. How much room you have on your wall to put it on? And what is going to compliment your picture. I choose a few big frames to give you some clues. As I put this down on here it starts to help you see that it goes down into the picture. But as you get down in there, the gold just really pulls your eye. This is another one that will bring your eye right down into the picture which is fairly nice in it if you have the wall to play it off. You have to keep in mind the bigger the frame the more it weights and some houses are older, new or whatever and they have wall issues of their own. This is a very nice with this because it has a straight sleek lines which bring back some of the thoughts in this agriculture picture. Although it's a country side it has a lot of agriculture sides about it that makes the lines come together well. This is one that will be real nice on it, the one thing you don't want to do is put something too small on it cause as I did that it just looked like another piece of the matte board more so than anything else. You can add that with it and it would look really nice. You see the difference between just leaving the little frame down there or adding a big frame to it, it makes a huge difference in what your picture is going to finalize that in the end and what it's going to look like on your wall. This is going to show that you didn't have a lot of money to spend or you didn't take a lot of time in it to where this one is dressed up to where like "wow, where did you get that picture at". "
