Making a 2x4 mural Help!

[amanda]

I am making a mural using 8 - 48x48 gray base plates.

I do not want to glue them down as this will be a one time one day showing. (last minute idea from my paster) I do not plan on doing a traditional mural but more of a loose free form with bricks and pieces.

Trying to figure out the best way to keep things together. I am thinking of making a frame on a piece of wood that I can slide the connected base plates into then having the whole thing rest on a slightly angled stand?

Any thougts

Thanks

Try using double sided tape on posster bard and putting it in a frame with aglass front this will work if it is even or maybe even just put the plates on the back board,

If you're displaying it vertically then double-sided tape won't do the trick and will get messy. What works well, though, is 3M Command Adhesive strips - you can buy packs of just the strips without hooks or anything and they're pretty cheap, and they hold very well and come off the Lego nice and clean. Good luck, and maybe share some pictures of your project when it's done!
