Or, try building a personalized picture frame using craft supplies and an insert of your choice. The possibilities are endless with a picture frame insert. So why not add some creativity to your home decor?
Getting the Picture Insert Frame to Fit
Picture frame inserts are pretty easy to work with. The hole size is the diameter of the hole you will need in your project for the picture frame to fit. The outside diameter, or frame size, will cover the hole area that you created.
Drill or cut a hole in your medium whether it be woodworking, scroll sawing, ceramics, or another medium. The picture frame can then be pushed into the hole. The rubber gaskets that are used on most picture frame inserts are made to take up the slack and make the art settle snuggly in place.
Getting the Photos in the Picture Frame
Trying to fit a square 4x6 photo into a round frame insert can be tricky, as it's difficult to judge the proper size and placement without a guide.
Luckily, there is an easy solution to this problem: make a template using the inside measurement of the insert.
This template can then be used as a guide for cropping the photo to the perfect size and placement.
It can be as simple as drawing out a circle with the correct measurement on paper or using photo editing software to make an overlay. Either way, taking this extra step will result in a professional-looking display in your round frame insert.
So next time you're struggling to get that square photo image into a round space, remember to create a template for an easy and accurate solution.
Custom Picture Frame Mats are an Idea
When it comes to displaying a photograph in a picture frame, the right look is essential for showcasing the image to its full potential. Here are a few tips.
One option is to purchase a frame with an insert that matches the size of the photograph.
However, if the photo is a non-standard size or you want to add an extra touch of personalization, custom matting can provide the perfect solution.
Start by selecting a mat board in a color and texture that complements the photograph and frames.
Next, use a mat cutter or specialized paper trimmer to carefully cut out the center of the mat so that it is snug around the photo.
Use multiple layers of matting for a special framing effect. These will look like custom mats. By taking these steps, your photograph will be beautifully showcased in its picture frame.
Different Styles of Picture Frame Inserts
The picture frame inserts come in tons of different sizes and a number of styles. Choose a gold frame or a silver frame. Some of the faces on the frame may be glass and others may be acrylic.
Remember, a picture frame holds your acrylic photo. Some of the frames metal exteriors will hold up for years to come.
Many different designs will have you covered from round to heart-shaped picture inserts. There are several different sizes to fit your photos from a mini photo frame insert of 1 7/16" up to 3 1/2" picture frame inserts.
