Basics Of Picture Framing Dublin

By April Briggs


Once you have made a design and ordered a frame material and their supplies, you will begin to think about framing the designs. Preferably work in a flat area like a large table or a kitchen counter. Protect the picture with either a Kraft paper, table pad or a corrugated board. People of Ireland working in picture framing Dublin and those who want to make an elegant picture frames, are required to follow some procedures.

All the packages that have been ordered for the work are opened and assembled neatly to simplify the work. Make a confirmation to see whether all the items that you ordered have been delivered and also do not throw the materials used for packaging until your design has been framed to your satisfaction. When the packaging is delivered, check to see if they have given you the instructions for framing.

The essentials for the process include linen tape, acrylic cleaner, wire and screw driver. These ones are gathered together in an organized manner. There are other tools which are available in doing the job but they are not necessary and one can still go on without them and succeed in doing a commendable job of framing.

This art work is then mounted to a backing of foam core. What follows after this is hinging or taping a mat board onto foam core or on another mat board whichever is your preference. Then the product is set aside to be used later.

Next step is to make a preparation of the acrylic. The protective liner is peeled on the side that is expected to be in touch with the art. That side is placed facing down on your collection of art which is the picture and the board. When through, peel off the remaining side. If you made a order of acrylic made with ultra violet rays or non-glaring properties, that part should face up and it should be indicated in the bought package.

If you are working with a metallic frame you should choose side and also the bottom rails to be placed facing down on the surface you are working in. The corner brackets are to be inserted and tightened. The art is slid within the partly assembled frame. Frame treatment is also placed face down then top rail inserted and the corners tightened. Spring clips are put beneath the frame for a nice and also tight fit. Bumpers and hanging ware are attached last.

When your frame is made of wood, it will come assembled if you order one whose matted dimensions width plus length dimensions equal fifty four inches or below. Place the frame facing down on the working surface. Your art assembly is left facing down within its frame. Make use of clips to secure your art. Screw the hardware hanging and also its wire. If you frequently make frames, buy a point driver because it secures the points of the frame. For a better finished look of the back of your frame, use a sticky frame tape along edges of the staple gun that is found in the point driver. Then attach a Kraft paper and cut excess. Then attach the bumpers and also hanging hardware.

Before hanging it is recommended to always polish the finished work using a squirts of acrylic cleaner made of Novus. The polishing works to ensure that the picture looks great and presentable which is of course the ultimate goal of any art framer.
