Frame It All Review: The Good, The Bad, and Why I’d Buy It Again (Even After Dropping It Twice)

The Story: How a Last-Minute Gift Turned Me Into a Frame Fanatic

How I Found It: I was scrolling Instagram at 2 AM (new parent life) when an ad showed a floating shelf-style frame displaying dinosaur art in a nursery. Perfect timing – my sister’s baby shower was in 3 days.

Why I Bought: Three words: Custom sizes available. Her weirdly specific 11”x34” wall space had been empty for years because ‘normal’ frames just didn’t fit.

First Impressions:

Packaged like the iPhone of frames – sleek box, no plastic
Smelled like a fresh lumber section at Home Depot (surprisingly pleasant)
Instructions had NO WORDS, just Ikea-style illustrations. My 4-year-old tried to ‘help’.

Real-Life Usage: Hung it above the changing table. 6 months later, it’s survived:

3 projectile spit-up incidents
A rogue stuffed animal attack
My husband ‘testing’ if it was really sturdy (he hung his 20lb dumbbell on it. Don’t ask.)

The Experience: From Nursery to Man Cave (Yes, Really)

Daily Use Case: Morning routine: Wipe off peanut butter handprints → admire baby photos → repeat.

Notable Moment: Used the 72” version as a room divider in our studio apartment during Zoom meetings. #WFHhacks

Unexpected Finding: The wood grain hides minor scratches better than my $1,200 West Elm console table.

Long-Term Thoughts: After 8 months, I’m convinced these are the Jeep Wranglers of frames – oddly rugged for something so pretty.

Let’s Break It Down

Pros (Why I’m Planning a Gallery Wall):

Custom Sizes FTW: Made a frame for my kid’s banana-shaped finger painting
Swappable Faceplumes: Changed from walnut to white when we redid the nursery
No-Wobble Mount: Survived California earthquake season
Secret Storage: The deep frame fits 3 layers of matting + anniversary cards
Eco-Bonus: Packaging doubles as a coloring book (genius for playdates)

Cons (Where I Side-Eyed Them):

Price Tag Shock: $89 for 24x36” made me gasp louder than my epidural bill
Assembly Olympics: Took 23 mins first time (with swearing), now down to 7 mins
Limited ‘Fun’ Finishes: Where’s my millennial pink option, Frame It All?
