ABSTRACT:
An easy to assemble picture frame is formed of double sheet material. The double sheet material has two parallel sheets with spacers forming parallel channels between the sheets. The material is die cut, and the material can be cut except for one sheet to form a natural hinge. A frame is cut to receive a picture, and a backing holds the picture against the frame. The backing can be hinged to the frame and either held by a clamping arrangement or frictionally engaged with the material. A base can be hinged to the picture frame, and malleable wires in the channels of the double sheet material hold the hinge in the desired position. A notch may be provided in the backing, and a rigid stand can be received in the notch to support the frame. In some embodiments, a transparent clamp holds the frame and backing together and provides a protective panel.
