Mainstays Picture Frame with Glass, Set of 3, 11" x 17" 4.5 5 122 158
Mainstay Picture Frames I bought a hole bunch of these in varied sizes. These are great frames for displaying a photo gallery on a wall. My favorite size is the 8 x 10, and the 5 x 7. The 4 x 6 seems almost lost on a wall, but they have their place. They are super easy to insert a picture because of their frameless pop out glass design. Like others have said, "It's about the picture and not about the frame". Although these are light weight plastic construction, the real glass cover is a nice touch.I even bought a set of the 11 x 17. Walmart has a collage print size of 12 x 18 that comes with approximately 1 " border around the edges. If you trim 1/2" off all sides, they fit perfectly into this size. Makes a great project or affordable gift that will be remembered and cherished.I have removed all the prints from my mismatched wood frames and placed them all into these frames. Now everything matches and I did not spend much to do it.I used the site to store ship method and saved the freight cost. I recommend this as these are glass and Walmart allowed me to open the shipping boxes to inspect for breakage. After all, these are glass. They came very well packaged with no damage.Buy these. 01/17/2010
Great for the price! I read other reviews saying when they received their frames, they were broken or had cracked glass, but none of the 9 frames that I ordered came in like that.The frames are called front-loading. Basically, you pop the glass out of the front of the frame a corner at a time, lay your picture in, and then put the glass back under the frame a corner at a time. I was afraid to stress the frame like it called for at first, but it was meant to be like that, and I didn't have any problems with cracking the frame or glass.The back has two nail holes, so you can hang the picture either vertically or horizontally. The frame is thin, not thick, so you can see your whole picture, which I think looks really nice. They are lightweight. These do not come with an easel for the back; you must hang them unless you make your own easel. 06/04/2010
Exactly what I wanted. These frames were just what I needed and wanted. Light weight with actual glass fronts. The price is unbeatable. Others who reviewed this item thought the front loading was odd, I thought it was great. Who ever designed these frames was thinking outside the box. Great new type of design. The package came a lot sooner than promised which was a bonus, especially when you live in Hawaii. Thanks Walmart for providing such a unique product and for great service. 01/07/2010
Great product because of the size. It's hard to find frames that are 11x17 even though its a popular size for digital printing. Great price and they look great on the wall. 06/19/2009
