I did this one a while ago and entered it into a local show. I don't normally frame my work, but because it was going in a show I started looking around for a floating frame, and I wanted it to be nice. I finally found the perfect one online but it was going to cost well over $100 for this little painting. My husband said - no way, I'll make you one.
So we went to the fancy wood store and found this gorgeous piece of sycamore, and he made a frame with the exact dimensions as the one online. He put a simple, non-glossy finish on it, and I think it compliments the painting perfectly.
Gotta love a handy hubby!
