fixing picture between 2 sheets of glass

Post by rhiannon framing »

Hi,
I have a customer who is interested in having a piece floating between 2 sheets of glass. Any suggestions how I can invisibly fix the artwork?

Thanks,

Sharon

We have sandwiched my wife's papercut art between glass without any adhesives many times, no issues. It may be an issue if the surface is painted or raised. The difficulty is keeping it dust free between the sheets of glass. We tape the glass together and fit a spacer behind to keep it tight in place, either nail and glued or glued and clamped.
