Here talking to you today about floater frames are fairly new to framing. It's something that they thought of in the last 10 years. It's something that has made canvas pictures quite nice. You can take a stretch canvas picture and put it down into your frame to where your frame sits there and the picture would sit here and you have a little bit of air gap. You would a museum wrap your canvas stretch so that you saw enough staples on the edge and it would be mounted into the frame like so and it's just an accent for your canvas picture. It would just set in there like so. These two happen to be the most popular in my frame shop. They really don't have the little whale that you would normally see in the back of the frame. They are very flat here, the big opening is there and that is to give your air free canvas but you screw into this and into your canvas to hold it to where you want it to be. It's a very classy look I really like the new thoughts that they have come up recently.
