Pinterest to the rescue!
I first stumbled across Kristin Jackson of The Hunted Interior's tutorial, which led me to Dina from Honey and Fitz. Dina had the great idea of melting the acrylic to get your hardware in, but as far as the actual hardware used, I felt that what Kristin found was more than I wanted to spend (in fact I'd seen similar frames on Amazon for close to what she spent on hardware), but I really preferred that style over what Dina did. Dilemmas.
Amazon to the rescue!
I bought these:
And then I simply spray painted them gold.
I marked off where my holes were going:
And super heated a flathead screw driver that was the width of my screws. It really does push through like butter! Actually, it's more like margarine...
Get all your holes done (I clamped my pieces of acrylic together and went through both at once) and pop in your art and hardware.
Ta da!
For a more detailed tutorial, I strongly suggest you check out the blogs I linked above!
Xoxo, Natasha
