ABSTRACT:
A packaging arrangement for items to be subsequently mounted, having a pair of plastic sheets with dimensions that are greater than the item. One sheet includes an adhesive layer that adheres to the front face of the item and also adheres to portions of the other sheet so that the item is captured in between. The sheet with the adhesive layer is preferably transparent. When mounting, the sheets are separated, a mounting adhesive is applied to the back face of the item, and thereafter both the adhesive layer and the back face are urged against the mounting surface. The sheet temporarily maintains the item mounted until the mounting adhesive hardens and the sheet is thereafter removed. The item can a single unit, or a plurality of loose units, or a plurality of units attached to a backing. If a single unit or a plurality of pre-connected units, the packaging arrangement need not attach to the entire item. Guides in the form of lines or holes are provided as a means to aid in aligning the item in the mounting process. If a large design is to be created, the packaging arrangement can include a plurality of partial packaged items for mounting adjacent each other to create the composite design. In addition, the partial packaged items can be mounted on top of each other to create a three dimensional design.
