highly recommend buying cheap or secondhand frames and decorating them as you like - i’ve glued on shells before and recently i’ve been using posca paint markers to draw designs- it makes everything more personalised and special - this is one i made for my cat

sometimes if I have a frame that's the wrong size/shape for my art I center the piece on a complementary background (usually just a sheet of Kraft paper, but you could also use patterned wrapping paper or poster board) that does fit the frame
if I have a bunch of small prints that complement each other I collage them in a single frame. photo corners can add a fun pop of color too and look even more intentional
alternatively, I've had some good luck finding frames on eBay, mercari, and fb marketplace

get your glue stick and scissors out and start going. particularly good if you don’t think you’re very creative. so stinking cute to make personalised ones for friends. This is my latest

One of my flatmates recently discovered a cheap framing shop near to where we live. Now, I have become obsessed with framing everything. I'm currently waiting on a print of The Red Shoes I got at the BFI to be framed in this gorgeous silver metal. Framing is great. Daydreaming about what you'd frame, how you'd frame it, picking the framed thing up. It's all amazing.

I made this card for my best friend’s birthday and I’m very proud of it - I drew things that remind me of her like her cats and her fav movie as well as photos of some of my fav memories together - it took so long because there were so many tiny pieces of paper to cut out but I just put on a movie and in the background and had fun crafting which was actually very relaxing
