DIY Picture frame
I made this picture frame from scratch because I couldn’t find one that I can buy. I used this picture frame for my daughter’s hair accessories organizer.
If you have basic knowledge of woodworking, this should not take too long to make. I am not a professional carpenter nor do I have any formal training. So my woodworking terminology may not be correct, but I will try my best to describe what I used.
Supplies you will need:
1×4 wood
router and bits
clamps
Kreg pocket hole K4 jig
Kreg pocket hole screws
screw driver
Miter saw
Measure out the size you need and miter at 90 degrees of 1×4. Then using a straight router bit and cut 1/2″ from the edges. This is will the backboard will sit.
On the front side of the board, I used a chamfer bit on one side and a rounded ogee bit on the other edge.
To fasten the joints together, I used a Kreg Pocket hole K4 jig and screwed the 4 pieces together.
Use a clamp to lock the pieces together to prevent the pieces shifting while screwing it together.
There you have it. All finished. Now you’ll just need to sand it down with a 150 and 220 grit sandpaper and spray paint it to whatever your heart desires.
