Stand from frames
I'm going to take a stall at a local event and I am looking for little stands to put some sample frames on.
Any idea what these are called or where to get maybe 5 or 6 of them?

Display easels or even plate stands. Simons sell display easels, maybe Lion sell both?

Thanks John, the display easels are a bit much. I was thinking the wee plastic legs, similar to the plate stands although some of them look a bit flimsy

There are the little wire ones and the fold-out plastic/wood ones. Have a look on eeeeebay.
Or you can knock some up from sq timber with a bit of Morso joinery.

Re: Stand from frames
We've used these before for a display on a table http://www.lionpic.co.uk/product-search ... earch=3909
They won't take anything too big or heavy but for small things they are ideal and they fold down after use.

Re: Stand from frames
kwik, what do those people sell that would help the original poster
they seem to sell strut backs and corners, no kind of display stands on their site

Re: Stand from frames
I use white plastic coated steel wire plate stands which I got from a local hardware shop. They come in a range of sizes and are good value for money. The white PVC coating is a little bit non-slip which I find helpful when standing things on melamine shelving, etc.
