ohhhhhhh, kekekek thanks

so u wrap the frame with black cloth 1st or the other way?
im not very good at this, as i was thiking, if u wrap ur frame 1st, how are u gonna nail it to the wall?

wat abt the cloth joining part btwn the short and long panels, 45 degree look?
*
Well it depends...

If u wanna hang the frame on the wall then attach the cloth first.

If u wanna glue the frame to the wall, the install the frame first and then glue the cloth to the frame. THis is the way I did it.

It does not matter how u join the cloth coz its not really visible.

Yes, exactly... just hang like a picture. But u gotto use heavy duty brackets and not just 1, but maybe 2 or 3. And u have to use at least 1.5-2 inch screws with wall plugs too.

I am not sure what brackets u have in mind, but the brackets I am talking about will mount ur frame flush against the wall. Now about your inner frame if its not a perfect fit, then there is a risk that the inner frame will still call outwards, so you may still need to secure it to the inner frame using brackets

Have a look at ur harware shop and I am sure u can find the type of brackets I am talking about.

I am not at home so I can't take pictures of the brackets I have. I found this bracket from the internet. Its a bit small, you will need to find larger and thicker brackets, but this gives u an idea of what to look for. Come to think of it, you will need to secure the 3-4 brackets on both the top and bottom of the frame.

I also found this, removable system. Not sure if it can be found here, but I am sure that you can get it thru ebay. Its not flush against the wall but the gap is small and there is no chance for the inner frame to fall thru.
