'It's just so creative and exciting'
A few of the more unusual and interesting projects
Music posters
Posters can be, as in this case, a momento of the event and the times around it.
USAAF
The planning, marking and sewing of these items through velvet onto foamboard, has been sullied by ordinary glass. Why, Oh Why, Oh Why....?
Silk Tapestry
Silk, needlework, uniforms, voles. If I can hold it still, I'll frame it.
BBMF
A piece of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster, with photos and certificate of authenticity. Brilliant!
Regimental prints
The rear card was removed, along with the print and glass. The frame was retained, stripped and stained. The print and glass were then cleaned thoroughly.
Part 2
New mountboard was chosen and cut. New barrier board and a new backboard complete the package.
Albums & Covers
The trick is to present an old album that was badly damaged, yet still be accessible and removable for playing. A card insert with plastic button for the spindle hole solution. More pics in Gallery 2.
BBMF revisited
Unhappy with the entire presentation, space was filled with an extra photo, layout and mountboard colour changed and frame repainted in 'Lead Grey'. More pics in Gallery 2.
Gallery
I will update the Gallery as I go along and work out how to take a better photo!
Gallery 2
BBMF frame holds Truvue70 anti reflection glass, whereas the Mowtown Frame is ordinary glass.
Scott motorcycles
Collection to feature
With an envelope of dirty and damaged pictures, we decided on the colours of frame and mountboard. After cleaning and repairs, I created several layouts, cut the board, hung the pictures and finished with a non-reflective, UV resistant glass.
