I finished the back as you show, minus the nice cover for the 'hole' in the back. However, the hoops don't hang flat against the wall. I'm thinking my daughter need to use bigger hooks to hold the hoops out away from the wall a little more. Have you had this problem?

I tend to just hot glue my edge around the back of my art hoops.. but this is quite fancy and special for those more custom editions. Love it!<br />Love your blog now too..
