An easy to follow and simple tutorial, thank you for sharing. I would add one small suggestion to countersink the frame screw holes so the screw heads don’t protrude from the back.

@@TheCreativeGlow What I loved is that you used corner molding, genius! Is much cheaper and easier than using 1 by 2 hardwood base, Then adding quarter inch lattice piecesTo the outside of the frame. not to mention all the time you save gluing and cutting and measuring.

This was a very helpful video! Very precise, and I appreciate those little tips and tricks I wouldn't have thought of such as the playing cards for spacers as well as gluing those pieces of paper as to more easily remove the blocks later on. Thanks again!

@April-xp3zv 4 года назад

Thank god I found this tutorial. Everyone else made it too complicated for someone like me living in an apartment. For the cutting portion I think I can just use a mitre box with a hand saw. The rest I'm following to the T, thanks!!!!

@austinccolton 4 года назад

Thanks a bunch! This was a helpful and simple tutorial and the fact that you aren't someone with expensive high end tools and a workshop made me feel a lot more confident about doing it. Nothing is worse than finding a DIY video where the equipment used is so professional that it would cost way more to get the material than to buy the frame. Thanks again and keep up the good work!

@TheCreativeGlow 4 года назад

Thanks so much! I do understand what you mean! We have quite a few tools here and even I watch some of those diy videos and think the same thing. I try to make videos that are fairly do-able for the average person, so I’m glad to hear this from you! Thanks again! 🙂

@sally8234 3 года назад

What a great idea. Thanks for that. I will paint the bottom portion of the frame black upon which the artwork is resting to give a nice even black reveal around the art piece.

@KM-pb5yq 2 года назад

Thank you so, so much for this tutorial! I have been struggling for two years with frame making. I love the way a simple frame adds to the art piece but didn't want to spend a ton of time and money making them. I also wanted to give the buyer the choice to remove a frame easily if they wanted to frame it differently. Again, thank you for sharing this. So grateful!

@TheCreativeGlow Год назад

Thank you so much, and sorry for such a late reply! But I’m really glad to hear this tutorial is helping so many artists present their work! ❤️

@patriciadmiller 2 года назад

This is the best floating frame tutorial I've been able to find in my browsing today. The majority of them were provided by people who were working in a professional shop equipped with professionally provided tools. You were able to create your floating frame with equipment that an artist would use trying to frame their own art. I appreciate your clear instruction and the reality that you provided because you made it accessible and I am grateful.

@TheCreativeGlow Год назад

Thank you, thank you so much! That’s exactly who I was trying to help out with this tutorial, so I’m pleased to hear! :)

@michelleduncan9965 2 года назад

This was an extremely well done tutorial. I have a huge piece of art stretched on a canvas, which will sit inside a window sill & function as a window blind. Since the art piece is about 4" smaller than the inside of the sill, I'll need to create a frame that will allow for a gentle "friction fit" on the sides of the frame. I doubt the corner moulding will be wide enough to fill the gap, but I'll look for one in a thick size. This tutorial showed me what I needed to know - as I figure out what material will give the depth of moulding needed. The lightness of a floating frame is a big plus, & the way it can feature & enhance the art is great. Thank you.

@Jazxiibarnes 2 года назад

Without a doubt this is by FAR the BEST tutorial on how to build a floater frame - aimed at the average person! Step-by-step, and suitable for someone (like me) who doesn’t have a full workshop or a ton of experience working with wood. Love that it’s Canadian based as well. Definitely picking up one of those clamps from Canadian Tire. I have purchased similar frames from one of our art supply stores and although I appreciate the convenience, I have found that they work best for their specific brand of canvases . Thank you - GREAT WORK!

Wow! It never crossed my mind to use the corner trim pieces for the smaller frames!!! Genius!!! I still need my table saw for thicker 24 x 36 frames but you just saved me a LOT of time for the smaller ones. And I bought that exact clamp from CT. What an absolute time and annoyance saver, especially when it is on sale! I bought it in December 2021 when it was 50% off ($9!!!) Well worth it for anyone.

This is PERFECT. I will say I dont have a chop saw so I am using a Miter Box and hand saw. It can be done this way to save money but I will say be sure to have plenty of clamps to hold you wood in the miter box as I had ALOT of sanding to try to fix my errors.

@TheCreativeGlow 2 года назад

Yes, I've used a mitre box to make 45s on another very large project once, and the angles definitely were not great! But it can be done if you know how to tackle it! Thanks for letting everyone know!

@Farroutman1 2 года назад

Great tutorial. If I suggest the next time you use the blocks for floats, you turn them to where the screws and glue are on the face grain and not the end grain. It will allow the screws to have a much better hold and you'll be able to unscrew them and use them again if you need to do maintenance on the piece of artwork. It was a great video and I really enjoyed everything about it. I think I'm ready to tackle this project.
