Barb's Custom Framing & Gift Shop

Barb's Custom Framing & Gift Shop Up-scale quality framing at bargin prices. By combing the market to find quality materials at low cost, Barb is able to BEAT any competitor pricing.

Located in rural Morristown, MN, this shop is a must on any road trip through the country. As people enter, they are amazed at all of the local artist talent, history of the building and the gifts that are on display. The building, a 1960's era church, now hosts over 20 local talented artists including: hand turned bowels; fine art; jewerly and much more. Barb is able to help keep costs to the con

sumer down by shopping for good deals for supplies. She also cuts the matts, wood mouldings (frames) and glass by hand (this eliminates the cost of computerized equipment and associated cost.) Barb sometimes kids that they could cut the power to the building and it wouldn't interupt her framing in the least.

Hello to everyone!! Just had my surgery today on my ankle. They removed the hardware from when I initially broke it 19 months ago; (hopefully) repaired the nerve damage from the hardware; I had a lesion on my bone that they had to dig out the bad bone and drill it bigger so it could heal properly; remove chipped bone fragments from the original break and remove bone spurs and other little things that were found in there. The doctor told Lee that he totally understood why I said it was painful to walk. And why I closed the business.

I miss all of you! It breaks my heart when someone calls and asks me to do a frame job and I have to say no. Yes, we sold the building but I don't think the new owners took any of the signage down. So I apologize for any confusion there.

If you would like to post any framing I have done for you in the past, please share here! I would love to see them....again!!!

Take care and I miss you all!!!

It is with bittersweet emotions that I post this. Barb's Custom Framing will be closing in the next month or so. I will post when I know if I am moving the business to Florida or selling to a local person who you, my wonderful customers and friends, will be able to expect the same service and quality that I provided.

Currently I will be open Wednesday through Friday from 10 to 5 PM. Saturday's will be spent at our garage sell behind the shop. 8am to 4pm. 201 2nd St NW, Morristown, Mn. 2 households worth of items.

Had my 6 week check (which was actually 7 weeks) today. I was looking forward to possibly getting rid of the boot today. No chance! My ankle is healing, but not as fast as would be expected. So, another month of the boot. I was told to start going up from 50% weight bearing to 100%. Mmmmmmm, I am already able to do that but only for short periods/distances. Otherwise the swelling becomes uncomfortable in the boot. Ugh!

What does this mean for the frame shop...I still can't work but on February 23rd I will start opening Saturdays only from 10 to 5pm or as long as I can tolerate. Lee will start helping me with the framing. What will take the longest is matt cutting. I am short, must stand and be able to step left and right to accomplish this.

So, if your not in a hurry to get your framing back but still want great prices and great quality, stop on by!!

Yes folks. I am still closed. BUT I am recovering. I do have one more surgery to go on this foot, have to see when the doctors say it is okay. I have my next appointment on the 4th of February and I am sure physical torture, I mean therapy will start oon after that. I will keep you informed!!

On my way to surgery. Plate and screws for the ankle. Projected reopening is beginning of February 2019. I am still taking jobs if you don't need immediately, call for appointment. I have the greatest husband in the world!! He is helping!

Being closed means I have more (to much) time to play on Facebook. My husband found this jem for me from almost 15 years ago when I first opened the shop as Wayne's Custom Framing. The name changed in 2005 to Barb's Custom Framing. Enjoy!!
