Hi, I'm new here and I'm hoping you can help me with some wall mounting ideas for a piece of wall art I've made.
I haven't worked out how to post pics yet, but I'm working on it. I's approx 26cm x 30cm. Made up of stips of 3mm coloured glass with abstract clear glass shapes placed in different places. It's not an original idea, but I rather like it and call it "drippy glass" I'd intended mounting it against a white, oversized board using standoffs, but thought these were a bit pricy though it would only need two (weighs about 600g), however, we're thinking of having 3 on one wall. I'm making another smaller one in different colours for the local cancer support centre and will be using standoffs for that.

I've scoured the web and local "Arkwright's" and  came across mirror screws, which seem to fit snuggly in the many nooks and crannies and have a plactic sleeve. No good for most other projects, but might for this.

Has anyone used them?

PS looked at hang your glass, adjustabail, mirror hooks, stanfoffs etc etc etc
