Got wood?

So being a bit bored during my holiday, by which I mean, I don't want to do design work for university; I started thinking about how to exhibit my collection of rosaries. I came up with frames in which to hang them.
So here I have the wood. I went to get skirting board which is used in bathrooms, when put together they make a beautiful frame.
So I started off by cutting the wood into lengths and then cutting the ends at 45 degree angels, to join them at 90 degrees.
Here are the unfinished frames, joined and having a back box without backing put on. I filled it with wood filler where needed to hide joins and screws. And then spray painted it black and added the centre rod for the rosaries to hang on.

So here are the finished, painted frames with my rosary collection, hanging on my wall... Came out beautifully don't you think?
