Picture Frames
Role: Design + Build
Stage: Production / Finished
Year: 2019
Picture frames are uniquely personal and customizable. The attention should be put towards what’s in the middle. I’ve built dozens of frames that are intended to be beautifully simple with wooden splines to provide strength to the miter joint (and a splash of intrigue)
Solid wood splines are glued into slots then cut flush using a pull saw hold miters tight.
Over about a two months in 2019, I made dozens of picture frames. Some were sold through Etsy as an experiment of selling flat pack, light-weight products. Some were given away as gifts. And, some I kept.
Here’s a brief overview of the process I created to construct the frames after the milling/machine was finished.
