Picture Frame Workshop
A public woodworking workshop open to all. No experience in the woodshop necessary.
Overview
Your most extraordinary moments deserve a custom home. Join us in the wood shop for our newest workshop: building your own picture frame.
Bring your best 8”x10” picture to the shop and we’ll lead you through the process from start to finish. It’s time to enshrine those wedding vows, adorable new babies or centerpiece-worthy pet portraits.
To get started on this detail-oriented workshop, you’ll pick between a selection of gorgeous hardwood walnut, red oak or cherry. We’ll cut angles into our pieces, and then use the router table to cut a groove into the back. Use the branding irons to add an extra special insignia.
No size substitutions. You can bring or buy your own 8”x10” matte insert for smaller pictures.
If you’ve ever questioned why custom framing is so expensive, this is the workshop for you. You’ll leave with a totally unique, professionally-finished frame for less than you’d spend at a custom framing shop, and make some new woodworking friends along the way.
