Where to Find 6x8 Photo Frame?

[WDW Princess 71]

As most of you know, the Shutters photos are the odd size 6x8 instead of 5x7. Does anyone know where is a good place to find a 6x8 frame, particularly one that holds a FULL 6x8, meaning the edges are not cut off? I know many frames even for regular sizes say one thing but end up cutting off a 1/4 inch or more on the sides which won't work for many Shutters pics that have wording/logos right up to the edges.

I would try Michaels. If that didn't work, I'd go with an 8X10 and a mat cut to the 6X8 size.

We got a couple at JoAnn fabrics....but there was only one type in that size.

that is precisely why i don't get Shutters photos. Every scrapbook takes 4 X 6"S and they don't carry them. Crazy

I second the buy a larger frame and get a custom mat. I do this all the time with pics I crop into all different sizes....it can really give a cool perspective on some photos.

I found some at Michael's, not a whole lot to choose from but at least it's something!

Where do you get a custom size matte from?

Hobby Lobby does custom mats and frames but the frames can get pricey. They also sell segments that you buy to make your own frame and those are quite reasonably priced and then often go 1/2 off. They come in sets of 2 so you can make just about any size. However, they are very simple (I know flat black and white, maybe even a gold) and then you still have to buy custom glass.

I got mine from Kohl's a couple years ago.

I order 6x8 frames from Amazon for my super special Shutters photos.
