The fabric is stretched and secured to the back of the base member and affixed around the outside dimensions as well as the inside dimensions.The frame is supplied with an adhesive which can be a two faced adhesive tape on either side for adhesion to the base as well as interfacing the fabric to be secured thereto. The adhesive can be prepositioned on the frame member, such that a release paper can be removed and the frame wrapped with the outer fabric at a subsequent time for securement thereto.The foregoing frame is adapted to receive a picture and a backing thereover for exposure through the interior portion of the frame.
