Affordable frames. Museum-quality memories.
IKEA frames make it easy to fill a wall without spending a fortune. The tricky part is finding a print in those one-of-a-kind sizes, like 19¾ × 27½. Persnickety Prints makes IKEA sizes (and any custom size) so the faces you love fill every frame edge to edge.
IKEA sizes are labeled right in the size name on the ordering site, so you never have to guess.
Look up your frame in the size guide below. Decide whether you're using the mat, since that changes the print size.
Jump to the size guide →Prints 12 inches and under shine as photographic prints. Larger sizes are printed as Giclée enlargements on satin photo paper with rich, archival color.
About Giclée prints →Choose the next size up that's closest to your frame, then type the exact size in the special instructions at checkout. The lab trims it to fit and starts right away.
Start your order →Find your frame (they come in black, white and wood looks like oak, walnut and birch), then order the print size in the last column. Tap a frame size to see it at IKEA. Sizes marked with * need a quick note: type the exact size in the special instructions box at checkout.

* Type the exact size you need (the frame or mat size shown) in the special instructions box at checkout, and the lab will trim your print to fit. Frame and mat sizes are from IKEA US and can change, so double-check your frame before ordering.
IKEA keeps frames affordable with a clear plastic front instead of glass. It's lightweight and safe, but it scratches easily and catches glare.
Add heat press mounting and you can leave the plastic front out completely:
The best walls tell a story. Pair family photos with a few art prints for a collected, personal look. Digital art downloads from independent artists on sites like Etsy print beautifully, too.
A set of botanical prints softens a wall of photos and ties the colors together.

Lean frames on a ledge and swap photos with the seasons. No new nail holes required.

Cut paper to each frame size and tape it to the wall. Move pieces around until it feels right, then hang.
Cropping tips for a perfect fit →Large IKEA sizes are listed under Giclée Enlargements, with "IKEA" right in the size name. Smaller sizes, 12 inches and under, can be ordered as photographic prints.
Yes. Choose the closest size that's a little larger than your frame, then type the exact size you need in the special instructions box at checkout. The lab will trim it to fit.
It depends on how you want it to look. Using the mat? Order the "picture size with mat" shown in the guide. Skipping the mat for a bigger, full-frame photo? Order the frame size.
Photographic prints are made on archival silver halide photo paper and are perfect for sizes up to 12 inches. Giclée enlargements are printed on satin photo paper with excellent color and archival, museum-quality results for larger sizes.
Larger prints need larger image files. Print from the original photo on your camera or phone, not a screenshot or a photo saved from social media. The ordering site will warn you if a photo is too small for the size you picked.
