Quite often certificates,diplomas and medals look nice with combinations of black, navy, or burgundy matting with gold or silver accents. Although there are really no rules, these combinations create a classic elegant look that will never go out of style. So dig out those diplomas and certificates that are probably still rolled up under your bed (i'm right aren't i?) and dust off the medal from that marathon you trained so hard for, and treat yourself to a beautiful custom frame. Styles can range from the most simple to very extravagant, and there really is something for every budget.
