Concert Ticket Stub display

I'll put this here. It's more about art than music.
I am a terrible photographer, so excuse the photo.
I finally finished a project I've been thinking about. What to
do with all my ticket stubs. I've kept most of them over the
years and thought one day do something. So here it is.
You can't see it very well... this is a 3 inch deep shadow box
and the tickets are floating at different heights away from the
back. I used styrofoam as a backer to keep them solid and flat.
Otherwise, they would curl up bad with the glue.

Cool thread.
I have a ton of tickets, both in book form and tin can that I
was too lazy to put into said book. I'll see if I can find it
and post here. Still unpacking from my move and don't know where
everything is. But when I get to it, pictures on the way.

Any chance we can get an angled view/shot of the cabinet to see
the relationship of each stub?

A little more detail on the construction...
Since this shadow box came with a felt like back, I bought a
roll of velcro and just used the hard hook part. This actually
was a better situation because I could move stuff around very
easily. The planned way involved to glue the stubs to the back
and that would lock any changes I might want to do. So now I can
add and remove if I want. ;D

You did a great job on this Mac. I'm wondering if I should do
the exact same thing with my batch of tickets or come up with
something entirely different, although I can't see how I would
improve on this.

Well thanks.
The improvements I thought about are maybe a better background,
like a concert poster.
And maybe more concert related memorabilia utilized throughout.
I have the recent 3D glasses for the Australian Pink Floyd and
that adds some interest and breaks it up a bit.
And crap... I just looked at the back closer, where the hanging
hooks are. I put the tickets on upside down.
It will only take a few minutes, but I do need to rotate them
all. Good grief.

Might think about throwing in some guitar picks and a pair of
drum sticks, even if they weren't from any one concert, just to
add to the theme of the overall piece.

Nice design thoughts
I was going to try to incorporate drumsticks in another idea. I
just didn't know what... yet ;D
