Tutorial: Cardboard frame April 14, 2015 April 14, 20 Of late, I have realized the need to protect the delicate quilled structures I make in a shadow box ora picture frame. On enquiring in some local shops, I learnt that they charge around Rs 250 for a medium si: frame. Also, the readily available frames in market lack the required depth and are more suitable for only photos. Since I was not willing to spend so much on the frames, I started goggling for some DIY frame ideas. I found many tutorials with different templates and here (http://quilledstuff blogspot in/2011/02/tutorial-cum-sa-faci-o-rama-din-carton. html) uilledstuff, blogspot in/2011/02/tutorial-cum-sa-faci-o-rama-din-carton.html)is one of the tutorials which I liked.
