Sandy O'Drobinak’s Summary

I have been custom picture framing since March 1988, when I was a junior in highschool. During this time I have learned how to frame everything from a simple photo to a complicated shadowbox. I also learned how to provide excellent customer service, and establish long lasting relationships with my clients.

Now, as an owner, my experience is still growing. I have built great relationships with all my frame companies, so when I need something, I have the resources to get it. When a corporate client needs several items framed, I am confident that these companies will provide me with a great product, and provide it quickly.

Everyday I am still learning and still gaining experience. This is important because it keeps my store fresh, and on the cutting edge of today's picture framing trends.

We frame the following and more......
photos, prints, lithographs, needlework, vintage items, jerseys (signed and unsigned), shadowbox items, photo collages, oil paintings (stretched and unstretched) and much, much more!!!!

• Owner and Frame Designer

  The Perfect Angle - Quality Picture Framing

  (Retail industry)

  June 2007 — Present (2 years 6 months)

  I specialize in excellent customer service, and quality picture framing packages. During my 22 years of picture framing experience, I have framed almost everything. I deal with many different frame companies, which give my clients a great selection of frame mouldings and mats. I have a great relationship with each of these companies, so when a corporate client needs a large amount of items framed, I have the resources to fulfill that order. I truly enjoy my business, and I am a true picture framer, which shows through my work, and my relationship with my clients.
  
  I am also a very experienced Frame Designer. A Frame Designer is responsible for creating the perfect mat, frame, and glass combination for each special item a client brings into The Perfect Angle. Each client will get honest and professional advice with how they should frame their piece, and they will know that it will look spectacular when it is complete. I have many creative ideas to make someone's special item turn into a masterpiece!!!
  
  A Frame Designer is also responsible for working with a client's budget, and helping them feel comfortable with what they are purchasing. We have hundreds of frame package combinations, that can work with many budgets.
  
  Finally, a Frame Designer is a good listener to the history of each clients piece. We enjoy getting to know our clients through their special pieces, and encourage our clients to make themselves at home, when they are in The Perfect Angle
