View both sides of a frame
Re: View both sides of a frame
The sneaky way that I've used is to make a sandwich of the glass/thing/glass, taped with P-90 or whatever.
You need a frame with a generous rebate width or extend it with a slip. Also needs to be fairly deep.
The sneaky bit is to make a frame with thin PSE timber - say 25mm x 6. Paint it black for preference.
This sits in the back of the frame.
Spring clips are fixed to the back of the frame and bear on the wooden insert.
This allows you to take it off the wall to look at the back, or release the clips and take out the sandwich and
flip it. Easy to do.
So you don't need to faff about making a two-faced frame.
