Looking for framed ticket collection ideas

locked

Lots of creative folks here . If you have framed some or all of your concert ticket collection  (doesn’t have to just be PJ) could you please post a picture here ? Not the ones attached to individual shows/ with show posters.

I welcome any advice as well ! (Lessons learned; what to avoid etc)
Thanks in advance !

Darn me for throwing out all my tix stubs... 
Just looked up and saw some tix stub table ideas. Would be cool to put them under glass on a table.

 I ended up buying one of these tickets stub books. Does the trick for me.

I just made a collage with my tix. I bought a custom sized frame from American frame so I could take advantage of some wall space above a window.  Did the same with stickers.

This is the idea or somehing along these lines that i would like to do with my tickets. How did you secure the tickets in the frame? 
I ultimately would like to get a coffee table made with a glass top and display my tickets underneath. Just don't know a furniture maker where I could get this done

I think you could just get special glass cut to shape of table. Put tix down and place glass. Likely not a big deal.  Glass plus cutting May be pricey. How about simply using a cheap frame and laying it on table.  You'd have to play around with it but don't see why it wouldn't work.

Spill a drink on it then you'd have soaked stubs.

I just laid them out on the backer board and then carefully laid the glass on top.  Then flipped it over even more carefully and put it in the frame. I didn’t use any adhesive - just use the tension of the glass and the clips on the back of the frame.

The one’s in the frame I had a framing store do for me they are all pre-grunge era no PJ stubs! The PJ stubs are the ones you see on my Bar top not sure when to frame them.

I own an art gallery and was able to pick up these 7"x7" frames at wholesale cost. Cut a black matboard for the background and used double sided tape to stick down the stickers, tickets and a few picks. These hang between a couple of doors in our hallway but after this year, they're gonna have to start spilling into other areas 😜

If anyone has an extra Fenway stub from '16, we are missing one night! Thanks @PJNB for hooking us up with one of the stubs awhile ago!

Love it! Nice job!

I made these 2 with a glue stick and a cheap fram...  It was great.  I did trim the ticket stubs on the sides... and it was tough to deface them like so... but the alternative was them sitting in a shoebox and probably thrown out by somebody some day.  Now guests look at them and it creates conversation.  If a friend is over, I can point to a stub for an event we went to and they cant believe I still have it.

I made 1 with notable events.  The other one was with cool looking stubs, a little more visually appealing

Same.  I love a good collage.  Although I couldn’t bring myself to cut any of them.

Beautiful display!

You guys are cool, thanks for the love on our sticker/ticket frames. I got the idea on here several years ago but honestly don't even remember what that looked like. So thanks to whoever posted that at the time. It sure takes up a lot less space than framing every poster from your shows and every time I walk by it, I think of all the fun times we've had with you fine folks, rocking out to the best live band on the planet.

And thanks for all the tour rumors and forum entertainment...I rarely post but regularly read.
