A Picture Frame Say's A Thousand Words

If a picture say's a thousand words then the frame that it sits in should too.  To us a picture frame is not just a frame, it is a piece of art.  

This 3 frame set is made from an old salvaged piece of wood that was left in almost original condition.  Once the frame was assembled it was given a light sand.  The fun thing about these frames is the more you sand them, the more layers of character are exposed.  On the outside it was white, before that it was a dark redish color, before that it was a greeny color and before that it was the wonderful wood grain.  Each one of these frames have a rustic artsy feel to them that is the perfect compliment to any picture.   

This set consists of a 4 x 6, a 5 x 7 and an 8 x 10.  

I have made a lot of frames and each is so different.  My favorite ones are usually the ones that have original character with layers of color.  I love the layers of color because its like it is telling a story of its own history.  I guess a frame really can say a thousand words.

Original beauty.
