vintage blade display

**jec** · 02-28-2011, 07:42 PM

I have been thinking of making a blade display case like this one.bladeart.jpg
Maybe a shadow box or something. I just like the art work on the old blade packs and wrappers. If anyone has some pictures of something like this I would appreciate seeing them so I can get some ideas. I think it will look cool hanging in the bathroom. Jason

Sheesh... OK, Ok

Here's mine. The blades came from fleabay and the frame and mat came from a thrift shop.

The whole thing cost me the equivalent of about two happy meals and an afternoon of my time.

Did you glue each blade? I was thinking of somehow using magnets on the back so I would not damage the blade wrappers.

I hot melt glued each one.

Kinda wish now I had collected more blades and filled the frame up.

I always get lots of comments on the display from house guests.
