Okay so here's my attempt at framing my Disney Dreams collection from DLP (I'll update the picture when I can take a better one in natural light)

And here's my Chinese Zodiac pins

Next projects are a small lot of Tokyo Sea Disney game pins & my Princess Birthstone pins . Any ideas on how I can display my PODM Pins but still see the cells clearly ?

As for the PODM pins you will need an led low intensity light strip to see the cells hubby put in the high intensity led low heat and the light shines thru too much, no we could not return the strips they were special order from the lighting place in town, mine are all mounted in frame set that I had done at Michael's the other set we put the space in the back ourselves for the lights,It was one of the silent auction wins at the reflections of evil pin event so we have 2 frame sets one with 10 in it and the other with 14 that one is 17 x 33 I think and heavy to hang
 
That's a couple of great looking displays! Awesome job (and makes my corkboard look so plain!) Did you build the frames yourself or were you able to purchase frames with enough depth to display the pins?
 
Thank you all for the positive comments .:wavey:
The actual frames are basic ones from my local Range (Think Target or 7/11) the pins do poke out of the back a bit but I've covered them so I don't get jabbed . The backing bits were from various sources or what I'd gathered over a few years of general disney collecting .
I currently only have 5 PODM pins , I'm pretty picky when it comes to the scenes I have . I'm thinking it might be better to wait until I have a few more before framing them .
