Making your own picture frame?

I don't know a thing about getting one carved, but don't buy a frame without knowing what it is really made of. The cheaper ones are usually some kind of synthetic stuff covered with a thin, simulated wood grain paper. That kind would look horrible after the first cut.

try a local craft store
Michaels - The Arts & Craft Store
instead of writing on it, maybe look at some kind of stenciling

Print out the lyrics line by line in whatever word processing program you have on your computer. Try doing them in different fonts to get one you like. print them and tape the printout to the frame. using a pin, prick out the outlines of the letters, and you can then experiment andtry your hand at carving by carving around the pinpricks. pick a chunky font that doesn't have finely detailed letters.
