Will Shart work with the graphic artwork on EVERY T-Shirt?

No,  please see the next question. 
 

How do I measure to see if my T-shirt's graphic artwork will fit in the frame?

Sharts can be displayed either vertically or horizontally.  The viewable space or display area of our tee shirt frames is 13.5" x 10.5" (PORTRAIT) OR 10.5" x 13.5" (LANDSCAPE). 

Measure the graphic artwork you intend to display to be sure it will fit into the viewable space of our frames.  If the artwork is larger than these dimensions, you will not see the entire graphic displayed when you frame your shirt.

A note about our packaging and the environment...

Our packaging has been engineered to provide the best protection for our frames while using the smallest amount of packaging materials as possible. Our boxing is plain brown cardboard as opposed to the bleach white packaging that adds bleach and dye waste to the environment. We also try to reuse any cardboard materials that come to us on freight lines.  Please join us in helping the Earth by recycling your packaging material once you have received your frame.



Can I purchase additional foam inserts for other frames or projects?

One foam insert is included with every Shart frame!

Additional foam inserts for other frames or projects are $6.95 which includes shipping.  The foam insert can easily be cut to different sizes using scissors.  This proprietary, engineer-designed polyethylene insert is completely recyclable, non-dusting, non-toxic and recommended by the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections.
