Nice score and framing. Your old lady is definitely a keeper. Congrats!

Framed by pros at " l'éclat de verre"
High grade Anti UV-Anti glare GLASS

Sorry for the low quality of the pic

Actually my first framed print ( birthday present to myself)
Guess i m gonna have to work a little more if i want to get my entire collection "framed"

Love how this turned out! Double matted. Museum Glass. Top matte matches the paper almost perfectly.

Cost was $6 for 2 pieces of trim wood. Everything else I got for free

Zefarrett- That looks very nice!

Just went through this whole thread. Some nice stuff and some very nice stuff in here.

Sure. So I got 2 Large sheets of plexie for free from work and cut them in Half with a dremel. Then at another one of my shopping centers I manage I took apart a huge pallet from Best buy. The wife wanted pallet wood on the back of our cabinets in the kitchen. Also took a few other small pieces of wood that best buy was throwing out. I spent the $6 at home depot for 2 pieces of pine. The same stuff Shepard uses to frame his Silk screens on wood. Let me also add the print is sandwiched in between 2 pieces of plexi and has picture corners to hold in place

Here are some close up on how I framed it. Counter sunk the screws 3 on each side into the Pine. 1 Screw in the holder pieces on the Back. I know its not a professional job, but its better than spending crazy money. I think I did a good job

Thanks dude! I've got a ton of compliments on it at work.

Framed this up for a giveaway. Its a bummer this was never officially released as a 18 x 24 print, as it is superior to "Guns and Roses" IMHO.

Sorry about the poor quality photos. It's 10:00pm, so it's all artificial lighting...

In great company:

Cross posting because it should have gone here.

Pre-framed by obey and wasn't acid free at all. Fixed it up. Double matted. Museum glass. Used all acid free materials and was able to reuse the frame.

Framed this up for my work office (I work in the wind industry). I've had this for 5 years and finally got it framed.
