Birdnest Gallery & Framing

Wonderful, personable owners! Kim actually travelled to Tacoma and hung art for us. His expert and safe hanging was much appreciated, as well as his artistic suggestions on placement. Thank you for a job well done!

We were looking for a piece of metal art to mount on the tile wall above our fireplace. The builder has installed an outlet and connections for a TV -- but after "killing" a TV we learned that the fireplace was just too hot. Now we had an ugly set of holes in the tile from the mounting bracket. We thought a piece of heat resistant art would be a good way to place an accent piece and cover the damage. I discovered that Birdnest carried metal art so we went in to look. I'm normally the guy who finds a couple pieces in an art gallery that are "Ok", but when we walked into Birdnest I found that I liked a lot of what they had. Nice variety of Pacific NW themed art at reasonable prices. Most importantly, we found a series of large (but not heavy) metal sculptures. Kim (owner) was extremely helpful and patient in helping us take measurements and discussing the pros/cons of how to mount them. We decided to go with a piece featuring Mt Rainier, trees, and water.Kim brought the piece to our house and handled the mounting. It was not an easy job as the tile we have is apparently from the planet Krypton. He stuck with it and we now have an elegant piece of art that not only covers up the damage but provides a very nice centerpiece to our living room. Thanks Kim!

I brought in 5 very old etchings that I had inherited.  Kim the owner, did a stunning job bringing theses pictures back to life.  The matting, and framing we're amazing.  He knows his stuff!  A merchant that really cares about his customer satisfaction.  I plan on bringing in another print for him to work his magic on.  A great locally owned shop too!

We purchased a beautiful (and expensive) painting in Hawaii and it deserved only the best framing. We thought we would need to find a place in Tacoma or Seattle but wanted to give our home town a try first, and glad we did. As soon as we started discussing the options we knew we were in the right place. Their recommendations were just right and they produced a beautiful piece. Couldn't be happier.
