lepetitfromage:
It might work in her favor to offer frames but make them optional. Does she know how to mat? Just matting them might amp up the professional look without adding significant costs. If she doesn't know how, I'm pretty sure most craft stores offer standard pre-cut ones. If she does decide to offer frames, I've always been partial to the minimalist frames that really let the art speak for itself.
Kind of like this one:

She might want to look into creating her own website and selling on there as well. I've heard from some people on Etsy that there have been some changes being made that don't sit well with sellers.
Aziraphale:
Ditto what lepetitfromage said. All of it.
What she might think is the perfect frame/mat combo might not be what someone else likes. I'd also suggest looking into other sellers, since there are other options out there that might work better for what she's trying to do (or that might have better fee structures, etc.).

I started on a commission for my best friend today! She bought an apartment with her boyfriend last year and they have a huge, empty wall to fill so I thought I'd make them a large painting. This is just the rough starting point of course, but I have a good feeling about it.
