Custom house portraits are custom art pieces of the outside of your home. They are a unique and creative way to display a place that you hold near and dear to your heart. There are lots of different ways you can get your custom house portraits done. Some artists offer drawings, in black and white or in color, watercolor paintings, acrylic paintings, or even just sketches. Each piece is as custom as your home, so whichever type you choose will still look amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you have ordered and received your custom portrait, think about creating a beautiful display in your home for the piece. First, you will want to measure the picture<\/a>, this step is very important so it ensures that your picture will fit perfectly into its frame. Next, head over to our Frame Designer<\/a> to design your custom frame<\/a> from start to finish. If you are choosing to add a matboard and your house portrait is in black and white, choose a color that goes well with your other decor, or simply choose black or white to keep it simple. If your house portrait has color added to it, choose a color that is somewhere in your picture, even if it’s a small detail like the lilac bush in your front yard or the color of your front door, that way the color in the picture will pop even more! Finally, once you receive your frame from Frame It Easy, it’s ready to be hung! We supply all the hanging accessories needed (besides the hammer!) to make it even easier for you. Once you have hung your frame, you\u2019re good to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
