Driftwood picture frames

What do you think about making picture frames out of lumber found in the bay, etc, that's really weathered? Found lots of it after Katrina, and other storms. John Hall could cut the glass for it. Think it might be kind of cool.

I've seen similar in the boutiques for lots of $$$. Go for it!

When they tore my great grandfathers old barn down in Wisconsin - my aunt saved enough wood to make us all picture frames - she put an old picture of my great grandparents and all the relatives standing in front of the farm house from the 1930's in it - it is one of my favorite things.
