  • For my daughter's birthday, I wanted to make a custom frame for one of her paintings. Making custom frames is a straightforward, yet rewarding process because it can be displayed all the time as part of your home's decor. In this video, I'll show you how I measured to fit the painting, came up with a simple, yet elegant frame design, and made it from scratch. I made the frame out of cherry wood, with walnut for the splines to add some extra strength to the miters and some visual flair.
    I used my shop made miter sled for perfect miters. See how I made the sled here: • How to Make Perfect Mi...
    To cut the slots for the splines, I used my shop made spline jig. See how I made the spline jig here: • Making a Keepsake Box ...
    Tools and material used:
    3/4 inch cherry lumber
    Vintage Craftsman table saw
    Dewalt sliding miter saw
    Hand plane
    Chisel
    Frame clamp
    Titebond II Glue

    We will admit the frame is incredible and as always, we enjoy watching you work with such precision. HOWEVER, I am sorry but but the star of this video is your daughters incredible painting. It is mesmerizing. Be sure to tell her we think she did a marvelous job!!!

    A beautiful frame for a beautiful painting and a perfect commentary guys 😊 I don't wait for designs to get shot down anymore. The secret is, to make everything as a surprise and enjoy the building process, then ignore any disappointment 😁 ॐ

    A great picture deserves a great frame! The picture was awesome the way she used the colors for highlights and shadows. The frame is a classic beautiful wood frame that brings your eyes right to the eye of the dog. I love your helper pointing out (throwing you under the bus) how you TRY to cover your tracks (mistakes). Can't wait to see it in person!
    Great job Brent!

      Haha! Thank you, Bob! It’s one of my favorite paintings that she has done. And her younger sister makes an excellent shop buddy and narrator, even though she really enjoys having fun at my expense!

    There's so much to love about this video. Beautiful frame - love the joints. The painting is awesome too - love the colors! AND I still absolutely love how you involve your daughter. She is no doubt learning SO much working with you and doing the voiceover. Love, love, love!

    Looks great Brent! I always seem to get some burning with cherry wood as well!

      Thanks, Grant! I definitely did need to clean the blade, though. The burning was a bit excessive!

    Well done! A matte board and some glass to block UV light are some other options to consider when framing.

    • @WhiteLabWorkshop
      @WhiteLabWorkshop  Před 3 lety

      Thank you, Rich! You’re absolutely right that that there are other things to consider as well. We considered exactly what you mentioned, but my wife preferred the look of it without glass or matting. Thanks for watching!

    Beautiful frame mate. Definitely going to watch your video that includes the spline jig, as I still haven’t got round to making one yet.

      @WhiteLabWorkshop  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you! Hopefully you enjoy the vid with the spline jig too. I’ve gotten a lot of use out of mine already! Thanks for watching!
