"Next thing we're going to do is clean our glass. I cleaned the inside already. I'm going to clean the outside. It's very important that when you are cleaning the inside you make sure that it's extremely dried in there. Liquid causes mold to grow, mold grows rapidly and by the time you realize it's there, it's too late your picture is gone. You place your frame over the top of it, pick the frame up flip it over we're going to staple it close. When you put your staple down, you want your stapler to stick out a little ways to hold your foam core. Which is your backing with your picture attached to it so that it doesn't come loose. You want it to be very sturdy."
