Internal frame lighting

Post by Zac »

Does anyone have any experience/info/resources relating to lighting a frame internally with LEDs, or perhaps of a course in this? I'm on the Framers Forum group on FB and Rob Markoff teaches a class in this, but he's in the states. Just thought that before I try getting in touch with him about it I'd ask on here...

Cheers!

You can buy led lighting strips that can be cut to size (Amazon) These are quite cheap and very effective back lighting. They come in self adhesive strips but you might want to strengthen that process using either glue or finger lift tape. These can be operated by a small remote control or you can have a cable attachment for a frame that will be free standing.

Rob Markoff's group "framing.academy" on fb has a whole resource section, where I'm sure that there are some articles about it.
