Picture Frame

Project by Greg Mitchell posted 791 days ago 760 views 1 time favorited 10 comments Add to Favorites Watch

I built two of these 5 X 7 picuture frames. They are built from Curly Maple and Mahogany. The corners are reinforced with mahogany splines. Both frames were finished with oil/varnish blend, and then a few coats of wipe on poly.
