New Fall Leaf Frame - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

Last month I posted a intarsia picture frame made in walnut, bloodwood, and yellowheart. You can see the post here: Fall Leaf Frame.

I just finished another frame. This one is walnut and yellowheart but I used some purpleheart as the third wood this time. The ph is very hard, took longer to cut and took a while to shape. I think the ph turned out great.

Let me know if you like the bloodwood or purpleheart better. Thanks.

The pattern is from Kathy Wise, Scroll Saw WorkShop magazine, Fall 2005.

PC guy, sure is a pretty frame. Me? I think I like the first one with bloodwood better. It seems brighter like fall leaves would be.

It's beautiful. I can see uses for each of them - depending on the decor of the room. Nice job.

Thats a tough question you asked. I love em both! But since its a fall leaf frame, I guess I will side with the bloodwood one, but just barely.

PCGUY,
I can't decide which one I like. They are both beautiful. I'll take one of each and put them on my desk and ask all my family and friends and let you know what they say.

I too love them both, but I think the blood wood looks a little more "natural" if that makes since.
