Welcome to the very first episode of Inside the Frame! I'm Tracey Harlan, owner of The Frame Shop in Augusta, Georgia, and I'm thrilled to kick off this podcast, which is all about custom framing, art, business, and so much more.
I bought my frame shop four years ago without knowing much about framing or art. The previous owner mentored me for a year, teaching me the ropes before I took over completely. It's been quite a journey, and I've fallen in love with the art of framing. This podcast has been an idea brewing in my mind for a while now. As a small business owner, I always seek ways to connect with people, share knowledge, and build community. I believe a podcast is a perfect way to start conversations about the craft of custom framing.
In this introductory episode, I’ll give you a taste of what’s to come. We'll explore all aspects of custom framing, from the creative process to different techniques and styles. I'll introduce you to talented framers, artists, and designers with a special focus on highlighting women in the field. We'll also dive into topics like art collecting, interior design, and how to work with your framer. Plus, I'll share my experiences as a woman entrepreneur, including marketing strategies and business challenges.
Key takeaways from this episode:
Custom framing is a blend of art and science. It creates frames that complement the artwork and the owner's style.
- The podcast will feature interviews with framers, gallery owners, interior designers, artists, and other small business owners.
- We'll explore how custom framing intersects with art, design, craftsmanship, preservation, and personal expression.
- The show aims to be a resource for homeowners, art collectors, small business owners, and professional framers alike.
- I am committed to supporting and uplifting other women in the field, sharing experiences, and celebrating successes.
Whether you're a framing enthusiast, an art lover, or just curious about the world of custom framing, I invite you to join me on this exciting journey. Let's explore the wonderful world of framing together!
