About Us

Let us introduce ourselves

If These Walls Could Talk Custom Framing & Gallery is co-owned and operated by Jennifer Rauch and Tim Frederick. Combined, Jennifer and Tim have over twenty years of experience in the custom framing business.

​

As a small local business, If These Walls Could Talk uses local vendors and suppliers whenever possible. 

Jennifer

An artist who works primarily in oil and multimedia, Jennifer has twelve years worked as a manager in the frame departments at various Michaels stores ​in the Aurora and Chicago area. Her experience, skillsets and crafty nature make her uniquely adept
at custom framing; particularly when it comes to memory and shadow boxes.

​

In addition to helping you with all of you framing needs,
Jennifer is the gallery manager.

Tim

Tim studied industrial design in southern California. Before that, he made a point to try his hand at as many artistic disciplines as he could; everything from graphic design, painting, illustration, ceramics and more. After accidentally stumbling
into a job as a custom framer (Yes, Jennifer was his boss),
he found that he really enjoyed it and had a natural talent for it.

​

Tim is the frame shop manager. His meticulous nature and attention to detail means you can count on him to ensure that your framing project is done to perfection.
