Materials saved from the landfill: picture frames, mat boards Skills you’ll learn: repairing + replacing parts of salvaged picture frames, mat board cutting + covering Discover tips and tricks for framing your artwork with upcycled picture frames! In this class, we’ll discuss the different types of pictures frames you’ll find secondhand – from wood to metal. You’ll learn what tools are needed to take them apart and replace the artwork inside, and replace missing hanging hardware. We’ll cover some DIY mat-cutting processes and even how to cover the mat with fabric for a fresh look. This is a demonstration class. Participants will not leave with a framed artwork but the knowledge to tackle their next picture framing project sustainably.
