Barn Board Frame

I made this frame for my wife this past Valentines day.  We have been traveling quite a bit since getting married 2 years ago and never had a chance to get any of our wedding photo's framed.  This piece is a solid barn board about 4-5 feet long made to fit 5 by 7 photo's or 4 by 6 photo's with a border.  It has beautiful textures throughout the wood as well as beautiful warm tones.  I used a natural floor tile to mount the pictures on so that it could be seen as the border around each photo.  It was given a gentle sand with light sandpaper to get rid of some roughness and bring out certain area's.  This frame has been a great addition to our home.
