That's awesome! Your apartment is about as decked out as I've seen.
Are you able to post a link to wherever you buy your framing supplies?
I've got some memorabilia I need framed and yours look awesome. I remember you said in the other thread that you did it yourself and got the supplies online.
If you remember where you bought it, please share.![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

Who did we beat 18-24 in that last picture?

The frames for the jerseys were from Amazon and these were from hobby lobby $12.99. I also bought purple matte board that I cut out myself while I was there to fill the frame.

Lol. That still has the stock image in it. It's just holding the place for when I pick up 2000 and 2009.

Framing/matting is not hard to learn. I started doing my own around 8 years ago when I did my gameroom. Frame shops were so damn expensive - I had a few things done at one and it cost me over $1K - I said frick that and bought my own tools and have framed dozens of things since then. You only really need a couple tools, which you can buy at Hobby Lobby - a matte cutter and a guide. Logan is the company that makes all this stuff.
Hobby Lobby puts frames on sale every other week for 50% off. Frames on sale won't cost you more than 30-50$ for most stuff up to around 24"x36". A 40" sheet of matting costs around $ 8-10 - and you can catch those on sale also or just pull up a 40% off coupon on your phone.
You can cut your matting on top of a big piece of cardboard or just buy a big piece of foam board at Hobby Lobby also. A utility razor will cut the matting to the size you need, then you do your cutout with the matte cutting tool. A box of razors for the tool will last you forever.
You can learn online in a few minutes how to cut out matting, and if you explore a few websites you can learn how to do fancy corners and stuff, triple matte everything, etc.
This one cost me about $40 to do - would have easily cost over $200 to have it framed at a shop.

I'm not sure which thread is appropriate to post this in so I'll try here. A friend of mine lost everything in the flooding, including his framed newspaper covers from all of LSU's championships. Anyone know if the advocate would print them for a price? Or where I can acquire some for him?

Not sure about printing actual newspaper but the website has the 90s pack of 5 in poster form (exactly like mine) for 40$ and the 2009 print for $15. Plus shipping.

Can you link it? I am on my phone and can't find it.

This is awesome. Had no idea the advocate had a store for all of those.
