First Handmade Floater Frame
Hiya, just recently finished making my first floater frame for one of my old paintings!
Here are the pics...
Newly completed, framing a 14.4 x 20 Inch oil painting. |
Back of the frame,.. To be added - a dust cover and some fixtures for hanging.. |
I love linseed oil finished raw wood for its golden glow which grows ever richer with age.. It also gives excellent protection, drying hard and resisting moisture... |
A simple floater frame is really relatively easy to construct and I much prefer the linseed oil finish and overall end product than one I could get from any ol' frame shop.
So from now on, (since I just got a proper mitre box that makes 45degree angle cuts a synch!)... whenever possible, I'll be making my own frames.... :)
