Title: Frameless picture & crown molding shelves
Post by: HaMeR on February 22, 2016, 08:16:30 AM

Diane wanted the Kids & Grandkids in the dining room on the wall. So rather than just hang pictures from a nail I decided to show her what we could do with some Red Oak crown molding & flat boards.

She took this pic about 18mos ago. Beautiful picture & I had it printed on a 30x40 canvas for her. I had no idea how to frame it tho. At 1st  wanted an elaborate frame but decided the frame should never be seen on a pic that she absolutely loves!!

Very nice

I just made a shelf like that around Christmas to hand stockings from since I have no fireplace in my home. It came out nice but reminded me how much I hate crown.

LOL    I'm sure it did turn out very nice Greg!! Once I got a good miter saw crown molding got much easier for me.

PhotoBucket sent me a coupon in my email. That's where I get all my pics from now.
