First Handmade Frame

I plan on making my first wooden frame this week. I need to pick up some wood, stain and gloss but I have most of the wood working tools I need. The frame will be for 14x14 inch ambrotypes and look something like this.


From YouTube Channel, "Out of the Woods Work"

It will be a cheaper wood pine frame, solidly built. I am not sure of the stain color, there are so many options. Maybe one of these.
The first ambrotype placed in my handmade frames will be this 14x14 inch tree pattern image made recently at Elk Island Park.
