Apparatus for displaying apparel
An apparatus for displaying apparel. The apparatus includes a three-dimensional apparel base that has a convex front surface, an opposing concave rear surface, and a plurality of magnetically active attachment points. The apparatus includes a backboard that has an anterior surface, an opposing posterior surface, and a plurality of magnets arranged on the anterior surface. The backboard magnetically couples to the three-dimensional apparel base by way of magnetic connections between two or more of the plurality of magnets and two or more of the plurality of magnetically active attachment points.
Method and system for modularly displaying artistic works
modular artwork display assembly formed of multiple display modules which are, themselves, translucent pockets for holding viewable sheets of artwork and that interconnect to each other along their respective perimeters.
Method for retaining a substrate within a frame
A method for assembling a canvas print includes the steps of: preparing a canvas substrate that includes a printed side; placing the canvas substrate with the printed side facing down; disposing a base frame over the canvas substrate; folding edges of the canvas substrate over sides of the base frame; inserting a rear panel into the base frame; and pressing the rear panel downward until a snap-fit connection is realized between the rear panel and the base frame with the folded edges of the canvas substrate being captured between the rear panel and the base frame and being taught across a forward face of the base frame.
Fast Frame
An ornamental frame is provided having a front frame attached to a back support plate. The back support plate comprises a front side that forms a display for receiving the ornamental album thereon and a backside having mounting fasteners for hanging the ornamental frame on the wall. The front frame in one embodiment has a rectangular shape for receiving the display album therein with a finger notch located on the bottom edge of the front frame for removing the display album from the ornamental frame. The frame further comprises an ornamental sleeve that encapsulates the ornamental frame.
IMAGE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MAKING AN IMAGE SYSTEM
An image system can comprise a sheet of clear thermoplastic material formed to define an interior space configured for disposal of an image or a three-dimensional object. The sheet can comprise a substrate upon which an image can be directly printed or otherwise attached. The image system can comprise two or more panes that meet at a vertex along a corner or are oriented at an angle relative to one another. The vertex can be formed using a tool in combination with selective heating and cooling of the thermoplastic material. The image can extend across at least two of the panes. The image system can comprise a mount configured to deter theft or tampering. Connectors can be utilized to connect two or more image systems to one another.
Tri-face display device
A tri-face artwork display device that allows for three different views within the same frame. One embodiment includes upper and lower rows of corresponding slits on the top and bottom of the frame. The slits have a predetermined depth so as to not penetrate through the other side of the frame. The slits hold the image panels that display the second and third image to compliment the first image. The image panel has a second image on its first face and a third image on its second face. The present invention includes a second embodiment that is used to retrofit an existing standard frame. The fillet assembly uses a plurality of receiving cavities defined by two side walls to hold image panels. The fillet may also have a locking flange, which extends perpendicular from the fillet and fits underneath the matting of a frame to securely hold the fillet in place.

Cube shaped display article
A display for displaying a plurality of images includes a cube shaped housing formed of a first housing part that includes first, second and third faces and a second housing part that includes fourth, fifth and sixth faces, wherein the first part and the second housing parts are coupled to one another by a snap-fit to form the cube shaped housing. The display includes a skeleton frame formed of a first frame part and a second frame part. The first frame part and the second frame part are attached to one another to surround the cube shaped housing. The display includes a first image template that includes interconnected first, second and third images, the first image being coupled to the first face, the second image being coupled to the second face and the third image being coupled to the third face. The display includes a second image template that includes interconnected fourth, fifth, and sixth images, the fourth image being coupled to the fourth face, the fifth image being coupled to the fifth face and the sixth image being coupled to the sixth face.
Messaging device
A messaging device having an exterior surface and at least one messaging cube with a plurality of rotatable exposed faces is disclosed. The exterior surface is adapted to receive at least one viewable message and the plurality of light output messaging that is controlled by a remote control device. The plurality of rotatable exposed faces is adapted to receive at least one viewable message for attachment thereon.
Collage Frame with Variable Mount and Configuration
A hinged collage frame has hinge areas at the top and bottom, formed by curved edges. The hinging allows the collage frame to hinged to either an inner wall surface corner and outer wall corner or to stand up straight, or to lie flat. The hinging is carried out by having edges which are curved, where one curved convex edge moves relative to another curved concave edge.
