In 2001 I opened Traditions in a small store front on Westnedge ave. In 2004 I moved to my current location. I have worked at other frame shops in Kalamazoo and loved the work, but didn’t like the way they treated the customers in their stores. The owners worried about the profit of each job first, and the customers satisfaction always came last. Pricing games, cheap materials, and rushing of customers designs, seemed to be the motto of these stores. When I opened my store I made a promise to my guests, that none of these things would be happening at my store. I don’t double my prices and hand out 50% off coupons. I always use the best materials and have the most up to date training and equipment to produce the nicest final product. We have a large design table and encourage you to stay until all of your questions are answered. Maybe this is why receive so many referrals, and also frame for many of the area’s better artists. We have such a strong reputation that we now also produce the framing for several other frame shops in the area! If you have any questions about us or our business, please let us know, otherwise we look forward to seeing you!
