Picture of my pin collection - Need framing ideas

[Daisylovesteacups]

Hi Everyone,
Here is a picture of my main collection, Daisy Duck. I was thinking about framing some of them but I'm not the most creative person. I would love to hear some ideas from some creative micechatters. Thanks in advance.

i used a black framed shadowbox and the lined the back with cork bord and black denim. then i can just push the pins in the back and they are still protected by the glass but can show depth. like the 3d ones or the diorama pins. heres a picture. i got all the stuff at joanns. it wasnt expensive but it wasnt super cheep either. but im really happy with the way it looks on the wall. and i dont have to worry about any falling off and getting lost cause theyre behind glass. before when i just had them on a board one fell off and just dissapeared. it was one i had looked a long time for so i was upset and then got the shadowboxes. im in the process of making more as i recently got back from disneyland and have many new ones and needed more frames.

I use a brown wood shadowbox... here's a pic of two of the display cases I use:

If you live by an IKEA, they have some pretty nice shadow boxes at a good price. That's what I'm planning on doing once I get some more pins to frame

Those are some cool frames!!
Once I get my first few pins on ebay, I need to acquire something like these to put them on
I'll have to check out the shadow boxes!! That's a smart idea!!!

Here's what I went with. Just found the largest corkboard I could find, cut it out, and covered it with black felt.

Nice Skawt!

So where do you find corkboard? I've been having trouble finding it. I only found sheets of it on eBay. Our hobby store and Home Depot don't carry it.

I remember finding it in 4x8 sheets a few years ago but couldn't find it when I did this so ended up buying a large cork bulletin board from WalMart.

I would like to make another one a little larger, this one is just a little bigger than 2 feet x 2feet.

[penguinsoda]

Um... our WalMart doesn't have it. My next thought was maybe flooring businesses, since the seller on eBay was selling sheets of it for using on floors.

Wow... that's so cool!!!
Kohl's has or at lest had corkboards... but I don't knw how big they were!
