Faux Barnwood Picture Frame 12 x 12 in - Distressed Red Wall Frame

Our review of the Craig Frames American Barn faux barnwood picture frame finds it is best for shoppers who want a rustic, ready-to-hang display without the weight or cost of real reclaimed wood. The single biggest reason to buy is the convincing distressed red barnwood look delivered with a textured laminate wrap that dresses a 12 x 12 in photo while including glass and pre-attached hanging hardware for immediate wall mounting.

Key Features

• Distressed red finish: The textured laminate wrap gives photos a rustic, country-style backdrop without the maintenance of real barnwood.
• Complete ready-to-hang package: The frame ships with glass, a rigid black backing and stamped hanging hardware so images can be displayed right away.
• 12 x 12 in capacity: Sized specifically to hold a 12 x 12 in photo or print with a viewable area slightly reduced by the frame lip for a snug fit.
• Durable MDF construction: The 2 in wide moulding is made from MDF wood composite to keep the frame lightweight while holding its shape on the wall.
• Portrait or landscape mounting: Pre-attached hardware is stamped for either orientation, giving flexibility for square images and layouts.

Who It's For

The Craig Frames faux barnwood frame is ideal for anyone decorating a farmhouse, kitchen gallery wall or a child's room who wants a consistent red barnwood aesthetic without the expense of reclaimed wood. It suits photographers and crafters who frame 12 x 12 in prints or scrapbook pages and need a finished look that installs quickly.

Buyers who expect solid hardwood or high-end custom moulding should look elsewhere; the frame is MDF with a laminate finish rather than genuine barnwood, so it is better suited to casual decor and budget-conscious projects.
