To frame a football jersey, follow these steps:
- Choose a frame: Opt for a frame large enough to accommodate the jersey without folding or stretching it. A deep frame might be better to create space between the jersey and the glass.
- Prepare the swimsuit: Make sure the swimsuit is clean and in good condition. You could iron it lightly to remove creases, but avoid high temperatures so as not to damage the designs.
- Mounting: Attach the jersey to a sturdy backing, such as foam board or acid cardboard, to hold it in place inside the frame.
- Positioning: Place the jersey in the frame so that logos, numbers and other details are visible. Make sure it is centered and straight.
- Attachment: Use special textile pins or invisible stitches to hold the jersey in place on the backing. Be careful not to damage the jersey.
- Framing: Place the framed jersey in the frame making sure it fits snugly. Close the frame carefully so as not to move it.
- Protection: If the frame does not have anti-reflective glass, you could add an acrylic or glass pane to protect the jersey from dust and light.
- Hanging: Secure the frame securely to the wall using hooks or clips suitable for the weight of the frame.
Keep in mind that the process may vary depending on jersey size, frame, and your aesthetic preferences. If you are unsure, you may want to consider hiring a framing professional to achieve the best results.
