Best way to mount 18"x12" prints?

[antihero]

I have had an 18x12 print done for my parents and would like to mount it in a nice frame for them.

I've new to framing prints, and would like to ask advise on the best way to go about it. How do you guys and gals mount your prints? big or small borders? I'm totally at a loss as to what size frame to get (18x12 frames seem to be difficult to come across).

please help!

You could get a local framer to do it for you or go online. I use FrameExpress myself. I usually double mount my prints...small white then colour (usually dark)....around 50mm. Depends on taste I suppose.
