include in the  shadowbox, and then allow for about two inches from the item, to 
the  border.Step 2: Use the mat boardAttach the memorabilia to the mat board, using  one 
of a variety of items, such as glue or tn requin adhesive  transfer tape. Attach the strips 
in stacks of three, utilizing the adhesive  transfer tape. Shadowboxes erase any shadow of a 
doubt that your sports  memorabilia is not safe and secure!Rick Grantham is an avid sports 
fan. Use  the screwdriver to attach spring clips to the frame.Step 5: Add finishing  touches 
Your next mission (should you wish to accept it), is to attach a  dust cover 
and hanging hardware, to the shadowbox. Fans who are not  satisfied merely to watch games 
and track statistics of their favorite teams  (such as the New England Patriots) collect all 
types of sports memorabilia  items. Next, place all the pieces from Step 1, face-down, atop 
the strips of  mat board. This will serve as a buffer between the sports memorabilia 
and  the plexiglass.Step nike  pas cher 3: Start constructing the shadowboxPlace the frame  face-down. Peel off one side 
of the protective paper, and then place it into  the frame. Use a shadowbox to 
show off your items, while protecting them  from harmful substances. You should have two 8" 
strips, and two 10" strips.  Then cut 12 stripes from the two remaining sheets of 
mat board (6-8" strips  and 6-10" strips). Attach the strips of mat board to the 
inside region of  the frame, using adhesive transfer tape. Spray water onto the paper, to  
tighten the paper. This can be a hobby, or even a full-time job.One of the  
main concerns when collecting any type of memorabilia, such as sports  memorabilia, is keeping the 
items in top-notch condition. Use a shadowbox to  protect your items from dust, dirt, moisture, 
etc., in order to maximize the  items' value. Position the mounting board inside the frame. 
Finally, attach  a wire or saw tooth, and "hanging hardware" to the back of the  
shadowbox.Regardless of which NFL team you cheer on during the season, you  may have sports 
memorabilia that you want to display. The mat board should  be flush against the plexiglass 
and the frame.Step 4: Putting everything  together Position the sports memorabilia item and its attached 
board, inside  the frame. Then peel off the other protective paper. Many articles are related  
to NFL sports gear [http://www.booyahvillage.com/nfl.html] and other sports  related topics. Attach adhesive transfer tape onto 
the frame's back, and  then put Kraft paper atop it-to create a dust cover. Rick
