Does anyone have any tips on what kind of frames to use for Mosaics? I'm asuming actual frames are typically used and not arrowhead cases? Thanks

12 yrs ago I actually paid FORTY DOLLARS each for several picture frames for flint...
The very same type frames can be had at thrift stores for around three $
No matter what, your going the have to discard the glass and create a strong ( and original ) backing.

Your doing a good project..handcrafted originals really enhance artifacts .. AND the sky's the limit for originality..check the "flint tree mosaic " under the FredB show posting.

I think you would have gotten 10 or 15 more replies to your posting but most people thought you were referring to framing a piece of mosaic from a Roman bathhouse floor. tee hee

Thanks Hal.

Anybody else? Looking for some expert opinions on how to put these things together!

Looks like your flying solo Eric, Any help from that front pager ?.. top left of the icons, "PROJECT IDEAS"

I looked closer at the projects..The top 3 the maker incorporated a glass front, must have made a slightly deeper back board / box... ( I dont care for the effect )
The dark frame around the white eagle apeares to be EXACTLY the same COLOR & design as my $40. one.

Last project uses liquid nail for the glue. Hot glue might be a better choice for some designs. ( Hot Glue is instant dry,,,Liq nail takes DAYS to cure )

Eric..In case you missed it in that off topic section here before you get to the regular forum page ( I dont know what the section is called, it the one nobody ever looks at )...
Has a close look of how the flint trees were made ( also on his website inder "DISPLAYS " )
