Quick Question Re: Storing Art Flat, by sufsean on Dec 18, 2013 16:04:39 GMT 1, Hey everyone,
Sorry this might be in the wrong area--but I'll be quick.
What's the best way to store an art print flat?
Also--is there a simple way or thing I can buy at a store that would do the job? Like one of those big flat art holders?
What's the "correct" way in preserving?
Let me know- thanks again!
Sean

What if you only have one print...should I stick anything in the folder w/ the print?

Quick Question Re: Storing Art Flat, by cashewman on Dec 18, 2013 16:37:53 GMT 1, Just did this myself.
For the small to large pieces, got a cardboard museum storage box ($40). For extra large, I got acid-free 30x60" board, folded it in half, and taped the edges (carefully, with appropriate tape). Then, in between each piece for both I lay folded archival acid-free paper.
So far so good, and not too expensive.

If you only have one print call me cynical but I'd be tempted to store it on the wall in one those frame things people on here keep harping on about. |
