MCSFormat Picture Frames, Gallery Wall Frames, Black, 8 x 10, 12-Pack

I have gallery walls all over my house with pictures of different sizes. Totalling about 150 pictures so far. I needed an affordable, simple frame that wouldn't break the bank and also just be low-profile and simple. These are perfect. I have them in all sizes, mostly 8x10 with a few 5x7 and 4x6. They work great. Very easy to put the pictures in. I have them hanging with Command Strips, which I also recommend. The only con is some of the glass (or plexiglass or whatever this is) has small barely visible scratches. I clean all of these both sides before using, but some do have minor scratches. Still totally worth the money, and I highly recommend them.

I used all 12 the minute they arrived. I had 11 8x10 canvases I had painted ready to be hung up. This comes in two boxes of 6 each. The boxes are marked fragile for the piece of glass that comes with each frame. The frame itself is plastic, there is a cardboard inside and a pane of glass lies on it. The frame is opened by pushing the glass out though the front as the plastic frame is flexible. It's fairly simple to use, but not like most frames where you reach though the back and never really touch the glass. The frame isn't too deep, so if you out canvas in there, it's better to not place the glass back, that resulted in the tight fit of the glass cutting my finger.I purchased these for inexpensive wall art. I also had a lot of scrap cloth around, so I wrapped a chevron pattered blue and white cloth around the cardboard and placed it back into the frame with the glass on top. This looks wonderful! I will be buying more of these frames in various sizes for other rooms in the house. I had a three piece 8x10 paintings I had done, with lots of pinks and whites, and the black frame just wasn't going, so I spray painted the frame a rich gold and viola, a perfect frame! Spray painting the frames for a unique and elegant look is a brilliant DIY to really make these smart frames work anywhere. These frame look great with canvas, giving it an almost stretched canvas look.Each frame comes with a little easel in the back that can be easily attached for a standing frame. They can be hung horizontally or vertically, and the hole is good for both conventional picture hooks and escutcheon pin. I even ran out of hanging hardware for the last three and used simple screws, as the frames are very light, they are standing up just fine (the pink set). Parental presence is required if you let your kids handle these, the glass is well-cut & super sharp!If you are looking into buying frames for slightly more expensive artwork, or need more ornate frames, these probably won't work, they are super simple with barely any frame in the front. They are for inexpensive wall art if your are creating a simple gallery wall or for art work that you simply need a way to hang, don't expect the frame to be the center of attention, it won't look as pretty as a wooden frame or even Ikea's RIBBA. Overall, for my purposes I am super happy with the quality, quantity & price of these and will definitely be buying them again.

I loved these picture frames so much I reordered these in both the 8x10 and the 5x7 sizes.These picture frames were perfect for adding a wall of uniform looking pictures. I wanted a full wall of a "through the years" theme displaying all my kids' school pictures. These were perfect for display, making the picture the star and not the frame. After reading others' reviews I was a little concerned that the frames would be chipped or damaged in some way but I have used all of them and all were in perfect condition.Each frame comes wrapped in it's own protective plastic and can be used for wall hanging or setting on a shelf. They are front loading and easy to pop out, place your picture in and then pop back in. For those pictures that may have been trimmed a bit too small, the black cardboard that is in each frame hides that flaw well when place behind the photo.ProsEasy to put pictures inBlack cardboard backing hides any gap from trimming photo too smallFrames were individually wrapped to protect them from damageSimple frame makes the photo the star instead of focusing on the frameFrames can be used to display photos on wall or on shelfEach frame comes with a tab and instructions to make is a free standing frameWorks with a photo mat if you want oneSimple to hang. The frame has holes to hang horizontal or verticalFrame is light enough you can use a push pin to hang it fromConsIf you change from hanging to sitting on a shelf you will need to take out the photo and put back in upside down. The way to attach the tab for the stand uses the same hole that you would use to hang on the wall so the top of the frame would then be the bottom if moving from wall to shelf. It's very easy to just pop out the photo and put back in, but it still would be nice to change your display decision without taking your photos out.

These are good frames.Good value, good quality. Good for art/home/ autographs.It's nice to have similar frames for the elegant minimalist look.

Nice simple frame, easy to use. Glass is properly cut, without the sharp edges I find on so many other frames! Also, the glass is clean.

Simple usable frames, great price.

It's exactly what I was looking for! I had bought identical picture frames about 2 years ago from a department store. Unfortunately, when I went to buy more this year, they no longer sold them. These frames are super easy to use, and were just perfect to house autographed pictures.

Love them!
