Displaying Prints
I'm looking for a way to display some of my prints in my appartment when I get around to printing some of them. I'll probably be leaning towards 8x12's and I've heard some things about people matting their own or mounting their own prints? I think what I'm thinking about doesn't involve a frame? I'm not really sure. I thought I remember seeing prints displayed something like this. If I'm thinking of something real, what does this involve? Is there any other way that I can display a print without using a frame? Anything will help probably. Thanks!

Andrew,
There are "frameless" glass sizes (8x10, 11x14, 5x7, etc.) that have clips on them. The clips hold the photos and or mats on. If I were you I would not consider hanging anything worthwhile without some kind of glass or acrylic cover.
Have a great day, CYnthia

What's the acrylic that you're talking about? I probably know what it is but it the light just isn't coming on. The thing that I'm going through is that I have some stuff that I want to hang but I don't want to buy a cheap frame from walmart, and I don't want to spend a lot getting a custom frame. I've been through that, haha. I'm just trying to see if there are some alternate ways to diplay prints. I think I'm thinking of something like how canvas paintings are displayed without a frame in some galleries that I remember. Something basic and simple is what I like. Thanks for your help!
