For example, if your home decor is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/interior-design-styles-minimalistic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">minimalistic<\/a>, something such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/what-is-line-art\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">line art<\/a> would be perfect for your walls! Line art is a simple yet beautiful art that holds lots of character in a small amount of&nbsp;<em>art,&nbsp;<\/em>yet still manages to express massive amounts of feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look around your space. Maybe you just did a home update on your furniture and now your art doesn&#8217;t match the theme anymore. That&#8217;s okay! Head to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learning Center<\/a> to get inspired on what to frame next.

That said, while we can do a lot of sizes that you wouldn&#8217;t normally find, we can&#8217;t do all of them. In this case, it might be hard to find a frame for your art. It could be a massive size, or it could be too thick. The smallest we can frame is an art size of 5&#8243; x 5&#8243;. The largest art size we can frame is 42&#8243; x 42&#8243; in our wood frame styles and 42&#8243; x 62&#8243; in our metal frame styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need something bigger than the sizes we accommodate, you might have to take a trip to your local boutique framer, which could run you a lot of money. But if you&#8217;re willing to make that investment, a super large frame could be worth it, and just what you need to complete your home wall display. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"does-your-art-need-protection\">Does Your Art Need Protection?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Amber_Shirley_-@preppybohemianathome_9.jpeg\" alt=\"nature inspired home decor\" class=\"wp-image-7792\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Amber_Shirley_-@preppybohemianathome_9.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Amber_Shirley_-@preppybohemianathome_9-700x525.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Amber_Shirley_-@preppybohemianathome_9-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Art, like anything else, has a finite lifetime. Once the elements get to it, it can yellow your art and the paper it&#8217;s printed on can wither and crinkle.

So hang up whatever you think will look the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also add some lighting to really make your decor pop!
