Default How do you display your rainbows??

Those of you who have completed rainbows, do you display it? If so, how do you display it?

If you do not display it, why not?

I will put it outside under the sun after the rainy day. Sometimes I get double rainbow.

In serious, I just don't display them. I just put them in the shoebox as a group.

I have my Andre Johnson rainbow matted and framed. I had Hobby Lobby cut the windows in the matting to fit and I put it in a 20x24, if memory serves correct, frame. I will post a pic when I get home later.

The matte is red with a black/angled cut out. I think they have quit a few different color combos available so you should be able to closely match the team colors. I was hoping they would have red with a dark blue cutout but no dice so I went with that. Also, I measured and the frame is 16x20.

Looks great! Are the cards in top loaders? Would magnetic one touch fit in the frame?

Thanks. They are in top loaders and taped, with painters tape, to the back of the matte. If you were to use a thick/deep enough frame I don't see why magnetics wouldn't work.

That looks cool! If you don't mind me asking, how much did that run you?

I have a Finest 2013 vertical rainbow that I want to display, and that is definitely an option as it looks great.

The other option I was exploring (although it isn't a cheap option) is a Hardball34 plexi display. It would run around $130 delivered.

I also just picked up the horizontal 2013 Topps Chrome Von Miller super so I want to think about how to display it as well....
