The Frame Workshop is a retail frame shop, gallery and gift shop located in Appleton, Wisconsin. We specialize in creative framing, unique home decor and the finest in collectible gifts.
Framing Design Counter and Home Decor We opened our doors on September 12th 1978, offering the Fox Cities' its first Do-It-Yourself frame shop. As time went on, the shop's focus shifted towards creative framing, winning our first national PPFA framing award in July of 1981. Through the efforts of employee, Paula Minkebige, we took Second Place in a field of 112 National entries. This pattern of multiple wins continued as we captured back-to-back awards from the Fine Art Trade Guild in the UK. From 1981 through 2002, The Frame Workshop has won over 65 framing awards, more than any other shop in North America. These competitions gave our staff the confidence and experience to create unusual and pleasing presentations for our customers' work.
During the 1990's, our business has grown to include a very large selection of fine gift items and collectibles: Windsport Windsocks & Fancy Flags, Steinbach Nutcrackers, Ulbricht Nutcrackers and Smokers, Inge-glas hand blown glass ornaments, Illume Candles and many other home decor items.
Our framing is second to none, where we utilize the finest materials and adhere to conservation techniques when appropriate to the art.
