CRAFT PICTURE MEDIA WITH INTEGRAL FRAME
Craft pictorial media that is easily folded to form a frame structure includes a sheet of relatively stiff paper having a rectangular main region and respective edge portions extending outwardly from each side and end of the main region, the edge portions being defined by fold lines that are marked and/or embossed, or carved in case the sheet of material is extra thick. Corner reinforcements can also be included.
System and methods for providing a picture frame with an interactive experience
Implementations provide method that includes: accessing data encoding the one or more images sized and shaped for presentation on a square or rectangular surface; providing the first set of data for warping by one or more computer processors such that each of the one or more images is projected onto a respective trapezoidal surface having a first base and a second base that is longer than the first base, wherein the first base is arranged to be closer to a viewer than the second base, and wherein a first portion of each image is projected further away from the viewer than a second portion of each image; and presenting each of the projected one or more images on the respective trapezoidal surface, wherein the first portion of each projected image is presented by the first base and the second portion of each projected image is presented by the second base.
Interchangeable image display system and method to create
An interchangeable image display system includes a rigid hard backboard including a backboard front side coated with a protective finish and including at least one photo area, and a backboard back side opposite the backboard front side; one or more rigid hard photo tiles including a photo tile front including an image infused into metal; and a photo tile back; two or more first polarity magnets fixedly attached to the back board front side in each photo area in a first pattern; and two or more second polarity magnets fixedly attached to each of the photo tiles on the photo tile back in a second pattern the mirror image of the first pattern; the second polarity magnets attracted, and removeably attachable to the first polarity magnets.
Light tile assembly and kit
A low-profile light tile assembly that employs a self-adhesive, removable/exchangeable photograph or artwork overlay. The light tile provides frameless edge-to-edge illumination that may be illuminated by a single LED light strip. The light tile may hang on a wall, or used as a countertop display. When mounted on a wall, the assembly uses a male/female magnet-based mating system that offers dial-in leveling. The light tile image also looks vibrant and beautiful when the light tile is not illuminated. The light tile may be programmed or turned on or off via a wireless remote control. An ultra-thin rechargeable battery maintains the tiles low-profile. When used as a countertop display, the light tile may use a USB cord to plug into a wall socket. The light tile assembly may come in a kit that includes a folding countertop display stand, a battery charging station, and an optional front-surface-mounting picture frame.
Adjustable media frame
An adjustable media frame has been developed. The adjustable media frame includes an adjustable upper rail and a hanging pendant member. The adjustable upper rail includes a first upper rail member and a second upper rail member with the first upper rail member sliding in or over the second upper rail member to adjust the length of the upper rail. The hanging pendant member is included with a hanging connection point to both the first upper rail member and the second upper rail member.
ART FRAME AND ORGANIZER
A display organizer includes a front wall, a first side wall, a second side wall opposite of the first side wall, a back wall opposite of the front wall, and a bottom wall. The front wall, first side wall, the second side wall, the back wall, and the bottom wall form an opening and receptacle. The display organizer further includes an openable frame positioned on top of the front wall. The openable frame has a cut out. The cut out allows a portion of the front wall to be visible through the cut out when the openable frame is in a closed position. The display organizer includes a magnet located within the front wall. The openable frame includes a magnetic piece that corresponds to the magnet and is used to secure the openable frame to the front wall in a closed position.
Display case for collectables
Apparatus for displaying packaged collectables in a supportive and protective case. A rear frame member is secured to a front frame member with a latch. The front frame member and rear frame member form a display case when latched together. In one embodiment the latch relies upon magnetic coupling between the front and rear frame members. The front and rear frame members have transparent panes or portions. The collectable is visible from the front, back, top and sides of the case.
Modular Picture Frame System
A modular picture frame system is disclosed and includes at least one base frame and a plurality of secondary frames. The base frame and each secondary frame include permanent magnets disposed on the frames to allow releasable attachment of the secondary frames to the base frame, or to other secondary frames which are attached to the base frame. The base frame is affixed to a wall or other surface upon which the frames are to be displayed. However, the secondary frames are not affixed to the wall but are only attached by way of the magnets directly or indirectly to the base frame. Accordingly, the secondary frames may be arranged or rearranged in any configuration with respect to the base frame.
MAGNETIC PICTURE FRAME SYSTEM, KIT AND METHOD FOR HANGING A MAGNETIC PICTURE FRAME
The present invention relates to a magnetic picture frame system to be hung to a supporting structure, the magnetic picture frame system comprising a frame body defining a picture receiving area and having a front face and a back face; a backing plate having an inner face engageable to the back face of the frame body to cover at least partially the picture receiving area, and an opposed outer face having a ferromagnetic area. The system further comprises a fixing apparatus having a magnetic portion magnetically removably couplable to the ferromagnetic area of the outer face of the backing plate; and a coupling portion couplable with the supporting structure.
Rack and frame systems for displaying equipment/memorabilia and a plurality of photographs
Rack and frame systems disclosed herein are for displaying equipment/memorabilia and photographs. The system preferably includes a base, a rack subsystem, and a frame subsystem. The base preferably includes a base spine, a plurality of base ribs, and a plurality of base mounts. Each base rib preferably extends from the base spine and has an associated base mount. The rack subsystem includes at least one attachment device and the base spine. The attachment device(s) is/are for removably securing the equipment/memorabilia to the base spine. The frame subsystem includes a plurality of frames and the plurality of base mounts. Each frame is connectable to a respective base mount.
