Materials You Will Need:* Picture frame molding or raw wood
* Edge banding strips
* Iron or edge banding machine
* Scissors or utility knife
* Measuring tape or ruler
* Pencil or chalk

Step-by-Step Instructions:1. Prepare the Picture Frame:
* Cut the picture frame molding or raw wood to the desired size and shape using a miter saw or other cutting tool.
* Sand the edges of the frame to ensure a smooth surface for adhesion.
2. Measure and Cut the Edge Banding Strips:
* Measure the length of the frame edges and cut the edge banding strips to match.
* Allow for a slight overlap at the corners to ensure a secure connection.
3. Apply the Edge Banding Strips:
* Use an iron set to the appropriate temperature for the type of edge banding strip you are using.
* Apply a thin layer of wood glue to the back of the edge banding strip.
* Place the edge banding strip on the edge of the frame and press it down firmly with the iron.
* Hold the iron in place for a few seconds until the glue sets.
4. Trim the Excess Edge Banding:
* Once the glue has set, use scissors or a utility knife to trim any excess edge banding from the corners and edges of the frame.
5. Finish the Frame:
* Sand any rough edges and apply a clear finish or paint to the frame to protect it and enhance its appearance.

Tips:* For a stronger bond, you can use an edge banding machine instead of an iron.
* If the edge banding strip is not adhering properly, you may need to increase the temperature of the iron or apply more glue.
* Be careful not to apply too much pressure with the iron, as this can damage the edge banding.
* Allow the frame to dry completely before inserting your picture or artwork.
