1. How to Pack Large Paintings, Photo
Frames and Mirrors

2. Painting, photo frames and mirrors all come under the
category of fragile articles and need to be packed in a
special manner before moving. We will teach you an easy
way of packing them so you don’t need to spend on
packaging experts.
To start off we will need a large flat cardboard box, packing
paper, bubble wrap, tape, a pair of scissors and a marker.

3. Step 1 - Unroll the bubble wrap and place it on a large flat
surface making sure that its smooth side is up with the bubbles
facing outwards to prevent air bubbles from marking the glass.

4. Step 2 - Lay your picture on the bubble wrap facing downwards
and cut the bubble wrap big enough so that it covers your
picture.

5. Step 3 - Now fold the bubble wrap over the picture and start
taping down. Always remember not to tape directly onto the
picture. Repeat this process until your picture is fully covered and
all the edges are tucked in neatly.

6. Step 4 - Take the flat card board box and make a layer of
packing paper by crushing them inside the box. It will give your
picture and the bubble wrap a bit of a cushioning and prevents
it from rattling around.

7. Step 5 - Take your picture and place it on the layer of crushed paper
inside the box. If you want to give more protection to the edges of
your picture then you can go for edge protector, I found some edge
protectors of different sizes at, http://www.dcgpac.com/packaging-
shipping/edge-protectors-45.html

8. Step 6 - Now take more sheets of packing paper and push them
each side of the picture to prevent any moment.

9. Step 7 - After this cover the top of the picture with more packing
paper so it provides more cushioning to the box.

10. Step 8 - Tape the box strongly and make sure that the picture is
packed firmly by shaking the box gently.

11. Step 9 - If “fragile” is not written on the box then do write it using a
marker.
That’s it now your picture is safe for moving.
