This is a different way to display bullets. I like it.

How are you making them stick to the background?

A friend of mine sent me a couple of bullets retrieved from the Hornets nest, and I put them in a frame I purchased on amazon. I typed up the background and pasted an illustration I copied somewhere, but I am having trouble keeping them in place when I hang the frames.

When I got them I saw that they were glued to the green material.
On the back I could see that the back was kept attached by twine of some type
wound around some small nails to keep the bullets from falling out. Very
much home made!
