Materials you'll need:

• Mounting materials: You can use acid-free adhesive or mounting corners to secure the artwork in place.
• Backing board: A sturdy backing board will protect the artwork and provide support.
• Hanging hardware: Depending on the frame, you might need hanging wire, hooks, or sawtooth hangers.
• Clean cloth and glass cleaner: To clean the glass (if you're using glass).

Measure your artwork to select the right frame size.

Step 4: Mount

Lay the artwork face up, secure it with acid-free adhesive or mounting corners on the backing board.
