Use the correct nails to ensure that the wood is held firmly in place and will not split.Ĭolor your frame (optional).
Thinner, shorter nails will be needed for smaller frames. Thicker, longer nails will needed for large and thick frames. The nails used in this project will depend partially upon how large the frame will be. Wood glue is cheap and generally readily available at hardware and craft stores. Other glues can be used if wood glue is absolutely unavailable but it is best to used the glue designed for this purpose. Just connect the frame with metal L-corners and matching screws, using a power drill to make holes for the screws first. If you'd like to cut your frame out of metal instead of wood, you should follow a similar process, but use a circular saw with a diamond tip blade to cut the metal. This will help the frame look like it belongs in the room. It may be easiest to use the same type of wood used in other objects in the room where the frame will sit or hang.
Many woods are suitable for this purpose, especially hardwoods, so you should decide mainly by preference for the appearance. You will also have to decide what type of wood you want to use. Plain lumber gives a cleaner, simpler look and is best suited for smaller or more modern images and interior designs. Moulding will give a more elaborate, finished look and is best suited to larger or more traditional images and interior designs. You can use either moulding or plain lumber. The wood you choose will depend largely on your own preferences and what the frame will be for. Here is some more information about each of these materials: X Research source Many different woods, glues, metals, and nails are available and should be carefully chosen to create a superior final product. You will want to choose materials that not only appeal to your needs and sense of design, but which are also high quality and appropriate the the image you are framing.

For the finishing touch, glue the drawer pull to the top of the rod inside the cup. Make sure the head of the screw will fit through the opening in the rod. Insert the machine screw in the bottom of the drawer pull.
I kept adjusting the dinnerware on my organizer until everything was where I wanted it to be. Add the bowl, another washer, and a fourth nut to secure the bowl in place. Adjust it until you are happy with the placement. This will mark the position for the bowl. Thread a third nut onto the rod and add another washer. Add another washer on top of the plate, then thread another nut on the rod to hold the plate in place. Thread a nut onto the rod leaving it as close to the bottom as possible. I used Rust-Oleum’s Rusty Metal Primer to prime the rod, nuts, and washers, then spray painted them silver. I added a vinyl decal I cut with my Silhouette Cameo to the plate.ĭetermine the height of the organizer and cut a length of the rod. Using the diamond bit, drill the holes then set the dinnerware aside.
Check it out before drilling the holes, it is really easy but there are a few “need-to-know” tips involved! (Forgive the horrible lighting in the video!)

I created a video on How to Drill a Hole in a Plate Using a Diamond Bit. Start by marking the position of the holes to be drilled into the plate, bowl, and cup.
