Colorful Picture Frames & Matboards
Looking to add color to your walls, but don’t want to commit to a bright frame? You can still get the desired effect by opting for a more neutral color wood picture frame and pairing it with a fun matboard color instead! The two main purposes of matboards are for decoration and protection. Matboards can serve as an additional decoration to your photograph or artwork. When the right color is chosen, it can help draw your eye toward the framed piece!
Matboards protect the photograph or artwork by separating it from the cover. This is important because condensation can build up inside the frame, which can result in water damage to the framed piece. EW! It’s a great option for those who may want to swap artwork out occasionally.
Our favorite vibrant matboard colors to inspire you, include:
- 💧Aqua Blue
- 🦩 Hot Pink
- 🍋 Buttercup
- 🧡 Tangerine
- 🌺 Hollyhock
- 🍇 Grape
Check out our info on choosing the right amount of matting. Spoiler Alert: Most customers add around 1 1/2″ to 2″ of matting in their picture frame when they order from our site. But that doesn’t mean you have to!
Colorful Frame Alternatives
Don’t want to commit to a vibrant frame or matboard? You don’t have to! You can add color by using a neutral frame and matboard, but have colorful artwork instead.
By combining a neutral frame and white matboard, your art will stand out in stark contrast and will draw the viewer’s eye directly to it! This is a great option for art collectors who want to focus on the artwork more than what’s framing it!
If bold, colorful frames aren’t quite your style, you can still bring vibrant energy into your home by pairing neutral frames with colorful artwork. Our Art Marketplace makes it so fun to explore thousands of pieces, from bright abstracts and playful pop art to seasonal collections and curated decor collections. In our Art Mart, you’ll find endless wall art possibilities that add a pop of color to your walls while keeping your frames timeless and versatile.
Accent Walls
If you’re feeling extra crafty, you can amp up your decor with a visually stunning accent wall! Accent walls are usually single-feature walls with either a splash of bright paint, wallpaper, or shiplap. They add warmth and depth to a room, and they look great with a few pieces of snazzy framed art displayed on them! Depending on what colors you select for your wall, you’ll want to adjust your frame and matboard selections accordingly. The brighter the color, the more neutral you’ll want your frame and matboard combo, or maybe not! If you are a maximalist decor enthusiast, we’re sure you will want to go all out!
