at least itâ?Ts not something you can easily crumple into a pocket. (What a
dreadful picture.) Perhaps even something that can come apart and be put
together again with a different piece. Screws of a discreet nature? Does
anyone have experience with such things, and where does one obtain such
items?

How about the Clip It type of picture framing that comes in either glass or
plastic. It is made from a sheet of hardboard as the backing and a sheet of
glass, or plastic, (plexi glass),that comes with clips to hold them
together. You could put a piece of lace between the hardboard and
glass/plastic and clip them together, use a piece of suitably coloured piece
of card, the type sold in art shops, & stationers, beneath the lace to
better show the design off. The plexi glass might be best for transporting
as it should be lighter and safer to carry about than glass. It might also
slip into the back of your pillow bag behind your pillow if your frame is
not too large.
You should find the type of thing I mean on this site which I found by
googling for "Clip it picture framing"
http://www.picturelizard.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=184588
This site is a UK site which seems to sell only in quantities rather than
single frames, it might however give you an idea of what is available. I
am sure that by making the same google search that I did above you should
find similar framing sold in your own country. You should be able to buy
this type of frame at Art/Craft/picture framing type of shops, once you know
what to look for from the pictures at the above site.
I have nothing to do with the above company concerned on this webpage just
trying to help solve a problem of displaying lace at lace days without it
going walkabout.
