How to Frame a Picture/Material required
Reference material by Wikibooks contributors. This retains its source identity and is not 411 news reporting.
When selecting a frame, decide on the colour, window size and area of the mount. (A pale colour makes the picture look larger; a dark colour makes the picture look smaller). Normally, a frame is sold in a long strip which needs to be cut to size.
