Looking for a simple picture frame to hold 4 3x5 shots.

March 28, 2012 8:18 AM

I'm looking for a specific picture frame to display school pictures of my four kids. The pictures are 3.5" x 5" portrait oriented. Is there a simple frame out there with spaces for 4 pictures with the same orientation? If not I will need to have a custom mat made but would first like to find something inexpensive.

Two of these?

This is 4 x 6, but it might be cheaper to get 4 prints done than a custom mat.

Thanks looli. I should also mention that I want something long-term so I can replace the old with new pictures each year. I guess I could always switch to the more common 4x6 size but thought I'd try to find the 3x5 version first.

ps. your two links are the same

You could do 2 of these or 2 of these, or you could do this and keep the pictures up for 2 years, swapping out the older one every year...

It looks like Art to Frames is your best bet. Here are all of their 4-opening collage choices. There aren't any with four 3.5"x5" portrait-oriented slots, though. This seems to be quite an obscure item, who knew!
