Last year he made roughly 80 frames from scratch and saved roughly $24,000. He does not have a woodshop with expensive power tools, and he makes frames in his 2-bedroom apartment. While he originally started making frames to save money, he has found that he can make a significantly higher quality frame himself than what he was purchasing from professional framers. These high-quality frames have allowed him to participate in prestigious are fairs and have become a fundamental part of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(135, 30, 94); text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRefund Policy Disclaimer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"yiv7122988443gmail-fe-block yiv7122988443gmail-fe-block-yui_3_17_2_1_1738173759818_10596\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"yiv7122988443gmail-block-yui_3_17_2_1_1738173759818_10596\" class=\"yiv7122988443gmail-sqs-block yiv7122988443gmail-html-block yiv7122988443gmail-sqs-block-html\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"yiv7122988443gmail-sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"yiv7122988443gmail-sqs-html-content\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Refunds will be issued if a\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eminimum of seven (7) days notice\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis provided prior to the scheduled event or program.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"yiv7122988443gmail-\"\u003eHowever, refund requests made with less than seven days notice will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and approval is not guaranteed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"yiv7122988443gmail-\"\u003eDecisions will be based on individual circumstances and the feasibility of filling the reserved spot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #871e5e;\"\u003eEmails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003e  \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eclasses@washingtonprintmakersgallery.org\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #871e5e;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVenue Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #871e5e;\"\u003eLocation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eWashington Printmakers Gallery,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e               \u003cspan\u003e 1675 Wisconsin Avenue Northwest Washington, DC 20007 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0;\" height=\"450\" width=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d3104.509577851465!2d-77.06830422498983!3d38.91232884582444!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x89b7c8bbf8cf1c8b%3A0xeba600c8be879885!2sWashington%20Printmakers%20Gallery!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sin!4v1709098499879!5m2!1sen!2sin\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #871e5e;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WPG","offers":[{"title":"General Admission","offer_id":51847595131192,"sku":null,"price":428.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/8012\/3192\/files\/floatingframe.jpg?v=1772437164","url":"https:\/\/desiconnectevents.com\/products\/making-floating-frames-for-painting-with-hand-tools-with-william-demaria-4-weeks-july-8-to-july29","provider":"Desiconnectevents","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
