Flat mount prints


Photo by Erin Langevin

Here your print is mounted to black or white foam board and trimmed to the edge of the image or image border. The interior of the black or white foam core will be visible on the edges unless you insert it into a frame. There are several great ways to display Flat mount prints.


View examples


Picture wall

Borderless photos printed on matte paper in the 8x10 to 16x20 size range look great when attached directly to the wall in a group (see example below). A good way to do this is to screw some wood strips to the wall and attach the prints to them so the prints stand out from the wall.  The prints are fastened using hook-loop "coins" that we provide. These can be removed from the wall usually without damaging paint in case you ever want to remove the pictures. We suggest a uniform print size and will give you a uniform placement of coin fasteners.  This way you can easily change out one or more pictures if you want to display new ones. We provide detailed instructions for making your picture wall.

How to display a print mounted to foam board

  • Mount several together directly on a wall with provided hook-loop fasteners
  • Install horizontal wood strips on the wall and mount to them
  • Place in a frame you purchase elsewhere
  • Stand up to display on a table
  • Stick to your refrigerator

Ready to frame

You can purchase a frame at a local store beforehand and order your flat mount print to a size that will fit. For the best viewing experience we recommend that you use neither the mat nor the glass. If you want a mat-look border, we can print one for you.

Self-standing display

For small prints we will place a folding stand on the back so the print will stand on a horizontal surface. You can select this option at checkout.

Refrigerator print

For small prints we will place a magnet on the back so you can place the print on a refrigerator or other iron metal surface. You can select this option at checkout.

Quantity pricing

If you want a picture wall with a large number of 5x7 or larger prints, see our promotions page or contact us for a quote for even lower prices. This will be an especially good deal if the images do not require significant editing.

Flat mount print

This customer's digitally edited photo was printed on fine art paper then dry-mounted to white foam board. We do not recommend going larger than 16x20 if displaying without a frame because warping may be a problem with large sizes.

"Very happy with both prints, they looked great and her mom loved it! Thank you for the different samples of the different types of finish. It will make it much easier to just show a client instead of having to explain it. Thanks"... Ty Lyle
