(53,410 posts)Its worth laminating them so they last for years. Youd be surprised how important it is to preserve your art. Look up businesses that do laminating and protect your work in plastic. I have used 7 ply lamination on my drawings. They are still in excellent condition after 40 years. Youll never regret it.

(53,410 posts)Some Fedex stores have them. Usually where you can get copies they can laminate them. I ask for 5 to 7 ply which is pretty thick and stiff. They will seal the drawing or painting with a margin so you can use to to hang it with push pins and not make holes on the drawing itself.
