We found a beautiful Japanese print on an old calendar which had been rolled up and hidden for a long time. In our desire to display it again, we went on a house-hunt for a suitable object to mount it on.
We found an old ceramic tile, however we're sure many other flat objects could work just as well, for example: a piece of timber board.
Using a craft knife, cutting board and ruler, carefully cut out the image from the calendar to size of the tile.
With spray glue, use quick sweeping motions to spray the facing side of the tile and the back of the art image. Following the manufacturer's instructions, allow time for the glue to go tacky. In our case we waited 20 seconds.
Then join the two tacky surfaces together. Carefully start at one corner by aligning correctly, making contact, then smoothing the rest down and out with your hand to ensure there are no air bubbles.
