Well. these are a few of the things that I have been working on. The book marks are made from veneer that Tearen gave me. The picture frame is made from some 1×4 I had laying around. The frame was my 1st official attempt. Since these pics were taken I have made some minor adjustments. I have trimmed the pieces on the inside edge to make a bigger opening. I forgot to put the rabbit in, but I can still take it apart and do that if I so choose.
I do have a question though, When making frames to fit pics how do you determine the size of the opening for the pic?
Just thought that I would keep y’all posted

WHen Making frames I usually just make them fit the picture. Some people (pros) like to have a matt around the picture to make it stand out more. Usually 2 to 3 inches wide.
Good looking projects.
Keep it up.

How thin are you making the bookmarks, and how are you getting them that thin? Drum Sander?
