DIY Card and Photo Display Stand // Limited Tools, Easy Project

These easy-to-make card and photo holders look great, work well, and would make perfect gifts or products to sell at craft fairs or on Etsy.
The angled 10 degree cut supports even thinner paper that would fall over if the slot were straight. They use a small amount of wood, and can be built with limited tools.
These came about as I was prototyping an idea, and got fascinated with making this curved cut. I found several different ways to do it, and eventually tried making the cut with a jigsaw instead of my band saw to make the project accessible to more woodworkers who may not have a band saw.

Beautiful they look just lovely and handsome like you bro!

[@tharemyhopkins5873]

An awesome and convenient alternative to frames, especially when setting on a mantle or dresser, etc. Bonus that it uses so little material. Thanks for sharing in such a professional format!

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thank you for your thoughts and the kind words Tharemy!

[@DarinBeard]

Doug, your detail work amazes me. Even the callouts in the video were well placed and gorgeous adding just the right touch.

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Darin! Once I made the callout I was worried I’d try to label everything, haha. I’m glad you thought it wasn’t too much.

[@YouCanMakeThisToo]

Great project! These would be great gifts

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Caleb!

[@JolienBrebels]

Another great project Doug! Very simple but absolutely beautiful! Well done!

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Jolien! When I started the project, figuring out the thin kerf angled cut seemed really tricky. By the time I was done the process seemed almost too simple to publish haha. Was fun to iterate on it!

[@42Fab]

Killing it with the AE to make a heck of a tutorial

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thank you Richard!!

[@FishersShop]

Great job, brother. You make every project you do look so good in your videos. Wish I knew how you did all those movie tricks! :) Gotta make me some of these now. Thanks, Doug!

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks for the encouraging words Drew! What I lack in humor in my videos I try to make up with shiny things, haha.

[@MrGuardcaptain]

Really like your editting style. Looks clean and easy to follow. Going to make a few of these this weekend.

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks James! And good luck with the build - hope they turn out well!

I like the knife you've added to your logo sign at 7:20. ;) Great video, Doug! Really enjoyed seeing the process. I think I need to make some of these now.

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Bruce! I need to keep the knives from falling at some point, haha. Be sure to post pics of you build some!

[@EthanCarterDesigns]

Very cool - I love the wood combos! Wish I had seen this before the holidays...perfect gifts!

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks! Maybe you can make them for birthday presents then :) I just made some more recently as well. Easy, fun, and cheap to make!

[@EthanCarterDesigns]

@@DNHandcrafted I may have to give it a shot!

[@myhoneyshandmade1077]

Great job Doug...totally going to make some of these for 2 upcoming shows. Thanks for sharing.

Looks nice. Great craft show project.

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Joe! I’ve thought about trying to make some to sell - one of these days I’ll make some products to sell, haha.

[@the-handy-fixer]

What an awesome project!

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Dennis!

[@HandmadeWithAshley]

hey, I have the same Heroku shirt :) Nice video and project idea :)

[@DNHandcrafted]

Thanks Ashley! It’s one of my favorite shirts, really cool design.

[@RCW-Designs]

How did you manage to get the bosch blade to work in a Ryobi jigsaw? I've never got one to work properly, and there are tons of reviews with complaints about this.
As far as the project and the video, I thought this was a great little project. And any day you can work in a bible verse into your RUclips videos is a good day. I find it funny that this verse pops up right as we were teaching this to the youth in church last night. God is funny how he finds ways to speak to you during your day.

[@DNHandcrafted]

Oh wow - I am not sure why they work in my saw. I wasn’t aware folks were having problems. I do know I dropped the saw and broke the mount and had to order a replacement - maybe the replacement fit the blades better?
And that’s cool that you were just teaching about that verse last night! Have a great day and thanks for watching (and commenting!)
