Chris' Craft has been a Park Cities staple for over 45 years!
Originally founded by Chris Christopher back in 1975 – he started out collecting finished needlepoints from around the area and professionally framing them to be passed down through the generations. Into his shop one day walks someone who would change the course of Chris’ Craft for the next 40 years – the one and only Connie Moore! Connie, along with her beloved, patient husband Eddie, and their expert-framer son Shane, nurtured and grew the business from a crowded (hot!) garage into the first (and only choice) for professionally framed products in the Park Cities. Over their tenure they have framed and preserved thousands of priceless memories and pieces of art for the families of Dallas, but now a new generation of owners has acquired the shop and learned from the best!
What Our Customers Are Saying
Elizabeth G
Chris’ Craft has been my family’s go-to spot for framing for years. They always do a great job and are super friendly. They have framed jerseys, newspapers, band posters, and fine art prints for us. Everything always turns out perfectly. We have never been let down by the quality and have had some great conversations with the employees!

Professional, punctual service from a lovely couple who really care about their customers. My piece was HUGE so I was concerned about getting it home, but they helped me pack it up safely. I forgot a small elephant drawing from the artist at the store and they taped it to the back for me, how did thoughtful!
