A hexagonal picture frame designed for use with 7mm diameter magnets for wall mounting.
Usage:
1. Print frames and one wall-mount guide if you are planning on tiling thing hexagons.
1. Place a paramagnetic anchor(s) on the wall. (I use steel thumbtacks with a dab of glue.) Use the wall-mount guide to space them out if creating tiles.
1. Print pictures and cut to size. You may be interested in a utility I wrote to segment pictures into hex tiles: https://github.com/acharneski/pictureframe - Otherwise you can just cut them to shape using the frame. Laminating works well at this stage.
1. Glue magnets and pictures to frames.
1. Mount pictures on wall.
