pretty and worth the work September 7, 2008
from the first time i saw it clicking through amazon, i've pretty much been in love with it.
it's a verra minimalist piece and is actually quite functional, but it is alot of work to put together the first time.
you're going to need a level, drill, rubber gloves, glass cleaner, screw driver and a good amount of patience and willingness for the tendious.
the kit includes little plastic things (the name eludes me) that you're supposed to hammer into the wall and then screw the hooks into. My general contracter said that the frame isn't heavy enough to actually need them, but this may only be true of my house. (we have high grade and heavy drywall, as well as framing; newer house aren't framed always)
anywyas, either way, you'll need the drillbit to make a slightly smaller "snug" hole to either hammer (i keep getting this ezma voice saying that)the plastic things in, or to pre-drill for the actual hooks. it's a pain to try and just manually screw them in (it can be done)
to get the picture in is probably the more tedious process. the way the wires are connected to the piece is by these screws in the back. and you need to take ALL of them off to put in a new picture. Please remember that the front metal bits are not fused to the glass, i.e. they will pop out and try and escape, they usually fit snuggly and won't come out but some are looser. The wire isn't connected either it forms a loop that you slip around the screw tip and bring to the back. [this enables you to technically make the middle one vertical and the side ones horrizontal, their is a tiny Umbra water mark on the middle one, but it's barely noticable.]
but the real tricky part is keeping finger prints and dust from between the glass. if the picture is the same size as the ones inside when you buy, they'll fit perfect and actually be held up by resting on the screws, also it's so tight that it holds it in place.
but you need rubber gloves, a foaming glass cleaner and a dust free clothe to clean it. te rubber gloves are the most important part, because you need to be able to manhandle the glass a bit, even for the eventually put back together. Though make sure the glass is dry before sticking your picture in, it's dust tight, so it's also going to be pretty water tight (to a pointe).
I suggest a foaming cleaner, merely because less water, less dust collection and it's easier to work with.
But this piece is gorgeous and verra satisfing. It stays pretty clean and is easy to take down for cleaning. Tedious woes aside, is pretty fun too.
