If you have several family pictures to frame a double picture frame is a great way to do it. They are versatile in style and design and also give you more frame for your dollar. Many cost about the same as a single frame, and they can be used either as single, double or even triple frames.

For the industrious type that knows a little about woodworking you can even make your own double picture frames. If you have the time, the tools and hardwood it will take about an afternoon. First start by cutting your frame pieces to the size of the frame.

For a 4x6 double picture frames you should count on 4 inches extra along each side for the border, and 1 and a half inch for the middle border. Add another 6 inches for the top and bottom border. Your frame pieces need to surround an area of this size which is 12x18 total. For a 1 inch thick frame that means final dimensions of 13 inches and 17 inches for the frame pieces (subtract one inch for overlapping frame corners).

Assemble the frame pieces using corner brace clamps to ensure you have enough room in the double picture frames very easily without a whole lot of extra work.
