I picked Foursided through a good rating on Angies List and because they were close to my house. I had passed the store a bunch of times and thought the artwork was great, but never stopped. They ended up doing an excellent job at a reasonable rate. The shop was busy when I went in on Sunday, though it didn't take too long to pick out framing. I was in and out on the next Tuesday when they called me about a week later. The quality is great. I'm sure I'll do more framing in the future.

I've used Foursided's Lakeview location for framing for several years and recently visited their Andersonville store. I've always had great experiences. I enjoy brousing their walls and looking at the cool things and the imaginative framing they do. I typically use the antique frames they offer because I like the character of the frames and they're all different. I've also used new frames and always get a million compliments from my friends on the work they've done. I recently framed several childhood objects and was extremely pleased. I wish I had enough $$$ to buy all of their very cool and what appears to be "one-of-a-kind" art boxes filled with interesting objects. They really have a great eye for the unique and interesting. I really wish I had enough artistic imagination to think up these things on my own, but I really treasure what they do and in fact their work is very affordable.
Pros: Unique, new, interesting framing and gifts, incredible atmosphere
Cons: Overwhelming selection

I had a bad experience here and am sorry that I used Foursided. I had a very pushy, rude and opinionated salesperson. I was charged much more than I expected, but went along with it thinking it would turn out well. I was very unhappy with the way the framing was finished. I think there are many better framing stores with much more helpful and creative salespeople in Chicago and I plan to never go back to this store.

The person who helped me was very patient and he offered me a bunch of ideas for framing my wedding announcement. I was really pleased with the result and the interesting design he put into the mat, which makes it an even more personal now.
