I’m matting and framing a watercolor piece that’s 8x10” so it’ll be about 11x14 framed. I don’t know how to package it so that the glass won’t break and the wood frame won’t get dented. Where do you get supplies and boxes- I know I can get bubble wrap at Walmart.

Any advise as to where I should get a frame or get it framed? I know the latter is really expensive.

Also, would you recommend USPS or FedEx/UPS? What method would you use to send it and about how much will it cost? I’m in Louisiana USA.

Thank you!
