Amazing portraits deserve an equally amazing display but this doesn’t mean you always have to use a traditional frame to showcase them in your home.
Below is some inspiration for deciding how to display your favorite memories.
If your home décor is very contemporary you might want to consider canvas gallery wraps, image blocks, or standout mounts to showcase your portraits. Going frameless is a great option if you’re looking for something truly sleek and modern.
If rustic and chic is more your style, then I would consider printing or mounting your professional images on wood, or select a distressed frame. For your everyday cellphone snaps, try turning old pieces of wood into stained photo clipboards, using binder clips to hang the photos against the wood. Another unique choice is to hang your pictures on a thin cable to make it look like a clothesline. Binder clips also work perfectly for this.
If you are a fan of frames, why not buy different sizes, colors, and styles to create one big gallery wall that displays a variety of memories? There are so many shapes and designs that you can use to create your gallery wall and really make it your own. We like to add other fun elements such as quotes, numbers, even wooden arrows! My personal gallery wall is a mixture of frames, wooden prints, and canvases. I love using several different mediums to create a fun, unique collection.
Since we work with many creative vendors who offer a wide variety of traditional and non-traditional framing and display options, we are able to help you pick the perfect pieces that suit your home and style. Whether it’s a traditional frame with hand-cut matting, canvas, or float frames, we will help you select the right option for your home.
No matter which method you choose, get creative. Filling your walls with a lifetime of memories is one of the most special and visual ways to tell the story of your family, so get hanging!
