Jan’s You Frame It
About
At 23 Stone Street in Historic Cocoa Village, Jan’s You Frame It provides custom picture framing services to residents and visitors throughout the Cocoa area. Custom framing shops like this one fill a specific niche within a historic arts district, giving local artists, collectors, and everyday customers a place to have prints, photographs, needlework, and memorabilia properly matted and framed rather than relying on mass produced ready made frames from a big box store.
Custom framing work typically involves choosing matting, glass, and frame moulding to match both the piece being framed and the space it will hang in, along with conservation considerations for valuable or sentimental pieces such as UV protective glazing and acid free matting to prevent yellowing over time. Shops like Jan’s You Frame It generally serve a wide range of customers, from artists in the surrounding galleries who need finished pieces ready for sale or exhibition, to families framing photographs, diplomas, military medals, and other keepsakes.
The shop’s location on Stone Street places it just off the main commercial spine of Brevard Avenue, within the compact, walkable core of Historic Cocoa Village that also includes the Cocoa Village Playhouse, The Village Art Gallery, and several other independent galleries and studios. That proximity matters for a framing business in particular, since local galleries and working artists often need framing services close by rather than having to ship work out of the district.
As an independently run, locally operated business, Jan’s You Frame It represents the kind of practical, service oriented shop that keeps a historic downtown functional day to day, not just picturesque for visitors passing through. While galleries and museums tend to draw the most attention in a district like Cocoa Village, businesses like custom frame shops are just as essential to the working artist community, since without accessible local framing, artists and collectors alike would need to travel well outside the historic district for a basic service many take for granted.
Customers interested in current pricing, turnaround time, or the specific framing materials and styles available should contact the shop directly by phone, as is typical for a made to order framing business where costs depend heavily on the size and complexity of each individual piece. For anyone in Cocoa with art, photographs, or keepsakes in need of a proper frame, Jan’s You Frame It offers a locally owned alternative to shipping work out of Brevard County or settling for a generic frame from a chain retailer, and it fills a role that complements rather than competes with the village’s galleries and studios.
