The advantages and Benefits of Wooden Photo Frames


The  advantages of Wooden Photo Frames 


Wooden Photo Frames



Wooden photo frames can be found in every home across the globe; there are many advantages to using wooden picture frames instead of metal frames or (god forbid) plastic photo frames.

There are Some of The Top advantages of  Wooden Pictures Frames :
1- 
Wooden frames definitely have a more 'rustic' warm feeling about them than colder metal frames made out of materials such as aluminium. 
2 -
 Wood frames don’t have edges hence are good for holding priceless family pictures. However, plastic and metal frames do have edges which could harm the picture either while placing the picture inside the frame or while cleaning the frame. If you are looking for a perfect picture frame for a unique photo then consider the wood frame. Wood will ensure that your photo doesn’t gather dust, moisture or fade. Another quality of wood is this that it mixes with the picture and thus highlights the features of the picture. On the contrary, metal and plastic frames drag attention and thus hide the picture.
3-
 Wooden frames are available in a large variety of shapes, sizes, widths, colours and finishes. There are tens of thousandsh of wooden mouldings manufactured all across the world. Some of the finest wooden picture frame mouldings come from Italy and Spain with some also now being made in the UK. Many of the inferior wooden mouldings are manufactured in the Far East along with Eastern Europe proving another less expensive alternative for volume produced picture frames.
4-
 Invest in picture frames that are resistant to surface scratches, so that the frame will stand the test of time and not need replacing, should it drop from the wall by accident or get knocked by passing furniture or other potential 'scrapers'. Wooden picture frames tend to stand the test of time, offering a durable place in which to display your photos for a long time coming.
5- 
Photo frames are much more than a protective place in which to store your precious photos. They are individual pieces of art that can accent your all round home decor and bring the aesthetic appeal of any room to a whole new level. Be sure to take your time when selecting photo frames for any environment, taking into account the many factors that will mesh well with your indoor surroundings.

Use a pair of sharp scissors to ensure that the felt is cut through, rather than torn. Take some wood glue, and spread a little over the corner of your wooden picture frame. Press the felt down onto the frame, and secure it by placing a wooden board down over the corner. Repeat until all the corners of the frame are covered. Self-adhering felt circles can also be purchased almost anywhere.
