How to put together a 6×6 magnetic frame

Looking for a modern and stylish way to display your favorite photos? The 6×6 magnetic frame from Frame Center is the perfect solution! With its sleek acrylic design and strong magnetic corners, this frame offers a minimalist yet eye-catching way to showcase your images. Whether you prefer a full-frame look or a floating effect, this frame is versatile, easy to assemble, and allows for double-sided display.


What You’ll Need


Before getting started, make sure you have the following:


  • 6×6 Magnetic Frame – Available in Black, White, and Natural finishes
  • Your Photo or Artwork – Choose whether you want a full-frame look or a floating effect
  • Hand Sanitizer – Helps clean the acrylic for a flawless finish

Step 1: Understanding the Frame


The 6×6 magnetic frame is made of heavy acrylic panels that are held together by small but strong magnets in the corners. This design creates a seamless, modern appearance while making it incredibly easy to swap out photos.


One of the coolest things about these frames is that they allow for double-sided display! If you place them on a desk, you can enjoy a picture on one side while someone across from you sees another image on the back.


Step 2: Choosing Your Display Style


You have two ways to display your photo inside the frame:


  • Full-Frame Look – Your image takes up the entire 6×6 space, fitting neatly between the acrylic panels.
  • Floating Effect – Your image is slightly smaller than the frame, creating a “floating” appearance with a clear acrylic border around it.

Step 3: Assemble the Frame


Now, let’s put it all together!


  1. Separate the Acrylic Panels – Gently pull the two acrylic pieces apart. The magnets will release easily.
  2. Clean the Surface – Wipe both panels with hand sanitizer or a microfiber cloth to remove any fingerprints or dust.
  3. Place Your Photo – Position your picture in the center for a floating effect, or align it with the edges for a full-frame look.
  4. Reassemble the Frame – Carefully place the second acrylic panel on top, making sure the magnets click into place to secure your photo.
  5. Adjust as Needed – If the image isn’t perfectly aligned, gently nudge it into position before fully pressing the frame together.

Step 4: Display Your Frame


Now that your frame is assembled, it’s time to display it! These freestanding frames are ideal for:


  • Desks & Workspaces – View from both sides for a professional or personal touch.
  • Bookshelves & Side Tables – A sleek addition to your home décor.
  • Gifts & Keepsakes – Easily swap out photos for special occasions.
 
The 6×6 magnetic frame is a versatile, stylish, and easy-to-use way to showcase your favorite photos. Whether you choose a floating effect or a full-frame look, this frame is a simple yet elegant addition to any space.
