What is the Smooth Fabric Frame for 5x7 photo?

Item SPF257 is a picture frame in quality materials, chosen for how well it takes a mark and how long that mark lasts. It measures 9 1/8" x 10 1/4" x 1/4".

Worth knowing before you order: built to survive real use rather than a single event, that is what separates a promotional item that keeps working from one that ends up in a drawer..

Decoration method is matched to the substrate so the mark is permanent rather than printed on top. A frame guarantees display, because the recipient supplies the reason to display it.

Gift tier. The economics stop being about impressions and start being about the specific relationships you spend it on. Concretely: $28.05 each at 1-11, $17.39 at 500+.

Decoration options

The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 5 in x 5 in.

Laser Engraving

A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.

Best for

Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.

Color

Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.

UV Printing

UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.

Best for

Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.

Color

Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.

Artwork requirements

  • Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
  • Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
  • A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
  • Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
  • A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.

Common uses

Retirement and milestone giftsA natural fit for retirement and milestone gifts, which is one of the settings this picture frame was specified for.
Team photosA natural fit for team photos, which is one of the settings this picture frame was specified for.
GraduationA natural fit for graduation, which is one of the settings this picture frame was specified for.
Booth and trade show handoutsThe item that gives someone a reason to stop walking, and a reason to remember which booth it came from.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
Community and civic eventsLocal sponsorships and volunteer thanks, where visible presence matters more than volume.
Team and department awardsRecognizing a group without the cost or ceremony of individual crystal for every person.

Where this works best

The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.

1

Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events

Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Names, dates and short inscriptions turn an ordinary object into something kept for decades. Quantities are modest and lead times are unforgiving, which makes production scheduling the thing to get right. Decoration method is matched to the substrate so the mark is permanent rather than printed on top. Personalise it. At this tier a name is what makes it land.

2

Faith & Community Organizations

Faith communities give to mark moments rather than to advertise. These pieces are given once and kept for a lifetime, so the failure mode is not looking cheap but dating badly. Restrained typography and no year-specific styling means the piece still reads well in twenty years. The picture frame format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Too good to scatter. Pick the recipients deliberately.

3

Employee Recognition & Service Awards

Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. Consistency is what makes a recognition program credible. If a ten year award looks better this year than it did last year, everyone who got last year's version notices. Lock the specification and the supplier, and treat the item list as something you change deliberately rather than annually. Volume takes it to $17.39, which widens the list without cheapening it.

4

Education, Schools & Universities

Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Budgets are tight and quantities are large, which pushes toward mid-tier items ordered in volume. Alumni and donor gifting is the exception: that is where the spend per unit rises sharply, because the return is measured in gifts rather than impressions. Built to survive real use rather than a single event, that is what separates a promotional item that keeps working from one that ends up in a drawer.. The gesture is the product here. Spend the thought, not just the budget.

What do buyers ask about SPF257?

How is this decorated?

We run laser engraving on SPF257 as standard. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved. We can also run UV Printing on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on SPF257 is 5 in x 5 in. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.

What happens if something arrives damaged?

Tell us within 10 days of delivery and we replace it. Note any damage on the freight bill before you sign for it, because that is what the carrier claim turns on. Resolving it with the carrier is our job, not yours. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.

Can I order more later and have them match?

Yes. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. Material batches can vary slightly on natural materials, which is worth knowing if color matching across orders is critical. The published ladder on SPF257 runs from $28.05 a piece at 1-11 down to $17.39 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

Can I see a proof before you produce the order?

Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on SPF257 is 5 in x 5 in.

How long does production take?

Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.

What does it actually cost at quantity?

The published ladder on SPF257 runs from $28.05 a piece at 1-11 down to $17.39 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.

How should this be cared for?

Wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. SPF257 measures 9 1/8" x 10 1/4" x 1/4". Built to survive real use rather than a single event, that is what separates a promotional item that keeps working from one that ends up in a drawer.

What is the minimum order for SPF257?

There is no minimum beyond one piece on SPF257. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on SPF257 runs from $28.05 a piece at 1-11 down to $17.39 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

  • Ground freight is free from 12 pieces, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
  • The personalization area is 5 in by 5 in. Engraving is charged on the share your artwork actually covers, so a smaller logo costs less. Place yours on the product above and the price updates as you size it.
  • At 50 pieces this costs less than 36% of the 121 other priced items in Home & Office. It sits at the dearer end of that range, which is usually the material rather than the margin.
  • The table starts at 12 because below that the engraving setup costs more than the goods, and we will not guess at a price there. Ask us and we will quote a smaller run from your artwork.
  • Setup is free at every quantity, including 12.
