A Family Frame
I received a photo from my stepmom, Candy, a few weeks back. It was such a nice picture that I just had to make a frame myself for it instead of going out and buying one.
I used some of the bulk wood my Dad cut for me and used a pecan stain with some black paint for the border.
This is was pretty easy idea but the process made me go crazy. I wasnt sure exactly how to put the picture in the frame. Originally I was going to cut the middle out but after carving most of the middle out, it just looked to nice to scrap all together. So then I decided to try to carve an inside edge for the photo to slip into with my Dremel. That worked partially but I was having problems with the edges so I just went ahead and cut the middle out. I kept it, however, and used it to keep my photo in place.
I mounted it up on the wall next to what I call my "Ade Place".
