"The Circle" Dust Covers

I put a dust cover on for the first time 5 days ago.
Here is my second attempt. I did 5 of them.

This time I cut the paper to size first, cut out the hole instead of trying to cut the hole while it is on the frame.

I really like the circle instead of the diamond shape hole. I drew the circle by tracing the inside diameter of a masking tape roll, and just used a pair of scissors.

It might be faster to glue a big piece of paper on the frame, trim it with a razor, then cut the hole.
Maybe I will do that in the future if I can figure out a way to cut the round hole well.

After waiting for the glue to dry, I put the wire on them.

Hung a painting


First time putting a dust cover on the back of a framed painting.

I used too much glue, and maybe this paper is not ideal for this.

If that was not all, it would have been easier to cut the hole before gluing the paper on. 

I saw a video where the lady cut a diamond shaped hole. I think I will cut a circle from now on. Seems to me it would be less likely to tear out.

I will redo it later







I like it.
