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.

Picture, text, and support system and method
A first face has a picture with an image to be displayed. A second face is operatively coupled to the first face. The second face has text pertinent to the image on the first face. A support component is operatively coupled to the second face for positioning the picture in an orientation whereby the image is displayed with the text in operative proximity.

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.

SYSTEM FOR RETAINING A SUBSTRATE WITHIN A FRAME
A frame assembly includes a frame base and a rear panel including a plurality of side walls that are configured to be received within a plurality of side walls of the frame base. Along an external surface of each side wall of the rear panel there is at least one locking tab that is configured for reception within one corresponding locking opening of the frame base when the rear panel is inserted into the frame base so as couple the rear panel to the frame base in a snap-fitting manner and permit a canvas substrate to be captured therebetween for holding the canvas substrate across a front face of the frame base.
Frame support system
An adjustable mechanical assembly system is disclosed. In some examples, the frame assembly system comprises a plurality of joining pieces having a plurality of openings in each joining piece, each of the plurality of openings having a first cross-sectional shape and framing pieces having a second cross-sectional shape, different from the first cross-sectional shape, wherein the first cross-sectional shape can be formed by an arrangement of two or more of the framing pieces, a first one of the two or more framing pieces positioned approximately perpendicular to at least a second one of the two or more framing pieces in the arrangement. In some examples, four joining pieces form four corners of a rectangular frame, and at least eight framing pieces form four sides of the rectangular frame. In some examples, the joining piece can further comprise a protruding member extending from the joining piece.

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.
