We have this black and white picture here, it's matted, laminated on the top I chose a couple of picture frames. This one is probably you would not do the silver it repeats this process here but it really doesn't do anything for the actual picture. If you see it setting on the wall it gives you no clue what so ever to if it's going to look good.

This one is to foofoo this is a country side picture that is something that you would put around grandma's flowers in the house. This is definitely a no no the gold, the first thing you see is gold and last thing you want to see is the frame you want to see the picture and you want the frame to accent the picture to ensure that you have a pretty picture in the end.
