Flosstube Extra: Let's Talk Framing Part One (Measuring & Supplies)
Показать описание
This is part one of a tutorial on how to frame your finished cross stitch pieces. In this video I'll talk about the supplies that I use and offer suggestions on different things you can use that may work better for you. Part two will cover pinning your piece as well as closing up your frame.
Framing tips to know:
*RABBET:* The Rabbet is the measurement of the depth of the frame. Keep this in mind when you're picking out a frame. If you're going to be using glass, mats or spacers you'll need a deeper rabbet so you can fit everything in the frame.
*FRAME LIP:* All frames have a lip that covers up part of the opening of your frame. It's typically 1/4 of an inch. That means that the visible space of an 8x10 frame is actually closer to 7 1/2 x 9 1/2. Keep that in mind when ordering a frame.
*SUPPLIES:*
Acid Free Foam Core (I prefer 1/8 inch)
Acid Free Mat Board (comic book boards would also work if they're big enough)
Stainless Steel Pins (I use Dritz Bridal & Lace Pins)
Logan Duel Duty Point Driver
Logan Flexible Points
*_*Other closing alternatives: Spring Clips or Offset Framing Clips 1/4 or 1/8 inch*_*
D Rings or Sawtooth Hangers
Hanging Wire
Spacers (Econospace 125 clear 1/8 inch)
Scor Tape (1/2 wide)
Bumper Pads
Strong thread for lacing
