Default New frame
Hey all,

Here is a picture of the new frame I made last night. Its 20x20" plywood. It has 6 opening for 4x6" pictures . The base coat is green with a cream color as the top. before the top coat of paint was applied a crackle medium was added. It was for my wife's grandmas birthday! She liked it!

Let me know what yall think,

Leldon

Thanks! The finish does have some bad spots in it, but it was the first time we have ever done a crackle finish. And the sample that we tried wasnt as big as the frame!

Thanks again,

Leldon

Leldon, I'm sure Grandma is going to cheerish that frame forever, super job on the crackle, it is so unique and gives it an antique look. Great job.
