Lets Talk Framing- The Floater Frame

By Rosemary JonesNews

Meet the Floater Frame

If you’ve ever seen a canvas that looks like it's hovering inside its frame, you’ve met the floater frame. Unlike traditional frames that cover the edges, floater frames leave space between the canvas and the frame. This gives artwork a light, dimensional effect that’s especially popular in contemporary design!

Traditionally, floater frames work best for canvas art and artwork on wood panels, but don’t feel limited to just those formats! Our professional framers have tackled many unique projects using floater frames, including puzzles, paper pieces, corkboard, masonite, and more.

So why should you chose a floater frame?

  1. Perfect for stretched canvases
  2. Showcases the edges of the artwork
  3. Adds depth and polish without being too ornate

Unlike traditional frames, floater frames will never cover the front of your artwork! Its perfect for showing off every inch, even the edges of a painted canvas!

Here at Frame House, we’re committed to helping you frame beautifully and intentionally! Whether you’re preserving a cherished memory or showcasing a statement piece, we believe the right frame doesn’t just protect—it elevates.
