Custom Picture Mats, Collage Mats, and Mat Board

Shop custom picture mats cut to your exact size, along with collage mats, full sheet mat board, and bulk mat options for artists, photographers, and DIY framers. Mats help create visual breathing room around artwork, improve presentation, and make it easier to fine-tune how a finished frame package looks. Use this page as your central mat catalog to compare mat products, choose color tools, and move into the exact mat option that fits your project.

Shop Picture Mats by Product Type

Different mat products solve different framing problems, from single-opening presentation mats to larger sheet stock for studio cutting and volume-ready bundles for repeat orders. If you are also building the full frame package, it can help to review All Picture Frames, Glass & Acrylic, and Backing Board alongside your mat choice.

How to Choose the Right Picture Mat

The best mat choice usually depends on the artwork type, the level of preservation you need, and whether you are ordering one finished mat or cutting many yourself from full sheets. For added context before you decide, useful supporting pages include how to frame a print without damaging it, how to measure artwork, and Picture Framing Supplies.

For Finished Framing

Choose custom picture mats when you already know the artwork size and want a finished mat cut accurately for a frame package.

For Color Decisions

Subtle mat color changes can shift the tone of the whole presentation, especially in whites, creams, and soft neutrals.

For Studios and Bulk Orders

Bulk bundles and full sheet mat board make more sense when you are framing repeatedly, cutting mats in-house, or stocking presentation supplies.

Related Framing Components

Mats are only one part of the finished presentation, and many projects need a matching frame, protective glazing, and rigid support behind the artwork. Use these related pages when you are turning a mat choice into a complete framing package rather than shopping the mat alone.
Custom Picture Frames

Pair your mat choice with a custom wood, metal, or floater frame sized to the same artwork.

Glass & Acrylic

Protect framed artwork with clear, UV-filtering, and non-glare glazing options.

Backing Board

Add rigid support behind the artwork and mat package for a cleaner finished frame build.

Picture Mat FAQ

These quick answers cover the most common questions about choosing and ordering picture mats online. For deeper project planning, it can also help to browse Picture Framing Guides, Custom Picture Mats, and Collage Picture Mats as you narrow your options.

What are custom picture mats used for?

Custom picture mats create visual space around artwork, photography, and certificates while helping center the piece inside the frame. They can improve presentation, add color contrast, and help keep the artwork separated from the glazing.

Should I choose acid-free mat board?

Acid-free mat board is the better choice for original artwork, limited-edition prints, photographs, and anything you want to preserve over time. Economy paper mats are still useful for short-term display, high-volume projects, and budget-focused framing.

How do I choose the right mat color?

Start by looking at the lightest and darkest tones in the artwork, then decide whether you want the mat to blend quietly or create more contrast. If you are choosing between similar whites or neutrals, ordering mat samples is the easiest way to see the difference in person.

Can I order collage mats for multiple photos?

Yes. Collage mats are designed for multiple openings in one frame and work well for family displays, event sequences, and themed photo groupings. You can choose from common multi-opening layouts or shop larger collage configurations for more complex displays.

Do you offer bulk pricing on picture mats?

Yes. WebPictureFrames.com offers bulk mat bundles and volume discount pricing for higher-quantity orders, which is especially helpful for artists, photographers, schools, and event-based framing projects.
