How to Sandpaper Decorative Picture Frames

Video Transcript

"Hello my name is Denise Robinson and on behalf of Expert Village I'm here to show you how to create and decorate a picture frame. Okay now we are going to begin decorating our first picture frame.

Now I'm going to take my sand paper and just start distressing it. No brim or reason just any form that you like. I'm just sand papering the corners now and then doing some circular motions around the edges. Like I said it does not have to be uniform just give it some kind of pattern that you like and also do the edges and then just pretty much taking off some of the gilding from the gold that is on there already.
