I received a rolled canvas for Christmas and I'm wondering what my framing options are and how to do it? Any suggestions?

hmmmm - maybe call your local framing stores & see if anyone has a unique idea? (or a sale!) :)

Definitely take it to a small custom framer who knows what he/she is doing.
A good job is well worth doing and a bad job is......well, you'll be unhappy.
This is assuming that you like the canvas enough to spend money on it.
Welcome to the part of the photography/art world where it gets stupid expensive and your alternatives are price OR quality.....very rarely both.

I order my gallery wraps / canvas from CanvasOnDemand.
But I noticed this in an Adorama catalog:
//store02.prostores.com/servlet/hahnemuhleusa/the-55/Standard-Gallerie-Wrap-Stretcher/Detail
Watch the video on how to do it here:

ETA: with gallery wraps, there's actually no need to frame them. I always order 3/4" wraps. Just put a couple of eyelets and a hanging wire behind them, and they look beautiful on the wall.
