I have a wall of 5x7 photos that I love in bronze colored wooden frames. Most of the frames were bought at Walgreen for only a few dollars but look nice. Unfortunately Walgreen doesn't sell frames any more and I need to add some. Anyone know a good place to buy inexpensive frames? I don't mind unfinished ones and will paint them myself.

Thanks. Unfortunately I live nowhere near a Walmart but if shipping isn't bad I will do that.

Buy ugly framed art, take out the picture and put in yours. You can get nice frames, matting etc. for a fraction of what you would pay at a frame store.

Michael's has a huge frame selection, and great prices. DIY and finished frames, on different aisles.

(I would KILL for a Michael's in Israel!!!)

FF, I already checked Michael's and the finished frames were all at least $15 - 20. I know that isn't THAT expensive (maybe) but it's too expensive for me, when I want to buy at least 4 or 5. The DIY ones were just the front of the frame. Not the glass , or the backing, and thus, no way to hang them. I know it is probably not that hard to find glass, and figure out a way to hang them, but I am not up to it.

I guess I wasn't so lucky - the glass cracked in my hands while trying to insert the pictures.

I've had better experience with Walmart frames.

Try ikea they have a big frame selection reasonable prices.
I have been meaning to go there and get matching frames for all the professional pictures I have not framed (some not even printed yet!) But even that is time and money I don't have something else always seems more important...
One day I will get round to it!
