I'm new to framing as well as this forum.
Wouldn't you just know it when all I want are simple jobs to gain experience I get someone asking whether I can frame an Olympic Torch with the costume (t-shirt) behind it. I've mounted rugby shirts so this is probably the easy bit! Does anyone have any experience of this.

Re: 'Frame' Olympic Torch
If memory serves Olympic torches have lots of little perforations that you could get a Mylar strap though. You would have to put the straps outside the shirt area obviously.....

I would probably put the torch to one side of the shirt in a cove box and balance it with some photos on the other side, I usually try not to go to fussy though these things can easily look cheesy.
