Finishing & Display

Great question! The best finishing option depends on your project’s size, where you plan to display it, and your personal style. Hoops are quick and trendy for small to medium pieces and look lovely on a wall or shelf. Frames give a polished, classic look—ours are professional-grade and come with acid-free mats to protect your work. Shadowboxes are perfect if you want to showcase dimensional or embellished pieces and keep them safe from dust. Think about your project’s thickness and how prominent you'd like it to feel in your space when making your choice.

Acid-free materials help prevent yellowing and deterioration of your fabric and threads over time, keeping your needlework looking fresh. Our collection features acid-free backing boards and mats, so your hard work is safe for years to come. UV-protected glass in frames and shadowboxes helps reduce fading caused by sunlight or indoor lighting, making it the best option for pieces you want to display in bright rooms or near windows.

Absolutely! For larger or uniquely shaped pieces, consider our adjustable frames or custom-cut shadowboxes. These offer flexibility and can accommodate most dimensions. If your piece doesn’t fit standard sizes, our textile finishing supplies allow you to mount your work securely before framing. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need advice on special sizes—we love helping customers find the perfect fit!

Finishing is where you can really get creative and make your piece shine in your space! Choose a hoop for a cozy, handcrafted look or a minimalist frame for a modern vibe. Match frame colors to your décor, or try a shadowbox with backing fabric that complements your room. You can also turn smaller works into ornaments, bookmarks, or wearable art using our specialty finishing supplies. We offer a range of styles to suit every taste, so your needlework feels right at home.

To preserve your stitched art, always use acid-free backings and UV-protected glass—both are standard in our finishing range. Place finished pieces out of direct sunlight and avoid high humidity areas like bathrooms. For homes with pets or kids, consider shadowboxes or frames with secure closures to keep dust and curious hands away! Regularly dust the outside of your display and check for any signs of fading. These small steps will help your creations look vibrant for years.
