The Home Picture Framers Paradise!

Framing Military Awards!

Are you looking for a way to recognize the military achievements of one of our family members or friends? How about framing their metals, ribbons, flags and other items from their time served to make a spectacular piece? Acknowledge their contributions by showcasing these valuable items, such as the marine battle streamers shown here on the right.

With Memorial Day, Fathers Day and Mothers Day coming up, take this opportunity to give these items the attention that they deserve. There are many design possibilities.

 

 

Notice that the alternating heights of these hanging metals give each its own space within the frame. Metals look great when custom framed. When gathering these items, keep in mind that there are guidelines on how military items should be displayed. For instance, when not on a staff or mast, the United States flag should be hung flat. No objects or emblems should be attached to it. Whether it is hung vertically or horizontally, the stars should be at the upper left. Also, when the flag is folded, the red and white stripes should not be visible.

 

Also, if you’d like to follow tradition, keep in mind that there is a specific color associated with each branch of the military. These are light blue for the infantry, medium blue for the Navy and Air Force, and red for the Marines and artillery.  Framing uniforms and other personal belongings highlights the soldier's time in the military. Note that the United States flag is folded correctly, with no red or white stripes visible.

 

If you’ve wanted to display these items but weren’t sure how you’ll like them presented, we’ll work with you to create something that you’ll love. Bring in the items: we’ll discuss framing options, and then arrange them in various ways until we have the look that you want. Whether you have one large piece to display, or a varied collection, we will design an attractive, unified piece for you.  Keep in mind that we can incorporate preservation elements into the package. Therefore you can assure that these special items can be displayed for years to come, and garner the respect that they deserve.
