Will it float?

It is time to frame my two pieces of gesture paintings.  These are paintings done on thin, delicate, translucent Xuan paper so I really to to present them in a float format.  And I have just the frames for them.  Perfect.

But then I become concerned about the steel hanging wires being visible through the clear border of the float piece.  The wires would be very distracting, taking away the ambience I am trying to attain.

Perhaps I can compromise by attaching the painting to a similarly thin piece of translucent Xuan paper, such that the paper would obscure the hanging wires, and the translucent paper will still give off the air of a float piece?  Semi-float piece?

Without thinking it through, I trim off a piece of the translucent Xuan paper the size of the glass and attach the painting to it.  I am using a hobby heating iron used to attach skins to model airplanes to smooth out the wrinkles and creases on the paper.

 I meticulously cleaned my glass with denatured alcohol and microfiber wipes.  

Only to see this when the painting is sandwiched between the two panes of glass.

There are visible wrinkles forming on the translucent Xuan paper!  The paper is too thin and delicate to withstand the clamping of the cover glass.  A heavier piece of paper or cardboard would have definitely solved this problem, but I won't be getting my float or semi-float presentation.

I should have known better.  Years ago I committed the same mistake, but the excuse then was I was short on time, and not at a place where I would have resources to mitigate the problem.

I've seen the same snafu at the office lobby of our local Chinese/Asian attraction.  They displayed a piece of un-mounted Chinese painting sandwiched between 2 pieces of glass and it was awful.  My grandma had smoother skin than that piece of paper.  This is not an acceptable way to present Chinese works of art or culture.  

Obviously I cannot bear to see wrinkles on my own piece of work.  I should have thought it through more thoroughly.  

Back to square one, a real float it shall be.  I shall use clear fishing line for hanging wire and hope that it is not too visible, especially if the lighting is done right.

Now that I have the two pieces displayed side by side, I think they might work as a diptych?
