Ursels Web News
Welcome to Ursel's Web, a gallery of fine art and custom framing.

For thirty years we have been your source for custom framing. Diplomas, photographs, needlework, paintings, mirrors, and all your treasured memories, family heirlooms, are framed on location by Ursel and her helpful and friendly staff. We use museum quality, acid-free archival matting and backing boards, and offer a choice of glazing materials including non-glare and ultraviolet light-filtering options.  We also offer Shadow boxes for object framing.

We frame what you bring us, or we can order museum quality prints to help decorate your home or office. Prints can be ordered in "canvas transfer" form for the look and feel of real oil paintings.

Our gallery also offers artwork ranging from prints to original works by local artists.

We feature a new artist every month working in conjunct with the Middletown Art Guild.

Free estimates are gladly given.
