Photographs are extremely important to us. They allow us to travel back to a place or a moment of time; it can be nostalgic and often therapeutic. Most of us have a vast collection of photographs that are not given the time or attention that they deserve.
Here is a collection of 12 beautiful ways to display the photos you love:
1. Use wall stickers or a paint pattern as a creative frame.
2. Display photographs in colourful frames to make a feature of your wall.
3. Collage a large number of photographs to the wall.
You can also collate them in a shape, such as a love heart.
or a random shape.
4. String photographs together on wire or string across a wall.
You could even go one step further and create a makeshift frame for the photographs by sticking them to pieces of card or other light material before stringing them up.
5. Place photos in a circle then a clock hand in the centre to make your own time-worth masterpiece. This idea can be effective whether the photos are in fames or not.
6. Create a large photo wall with frames. Using the frame for all the photos creates an elegant look.
Using different frames (with the same theme) creates a quirky and creative appearance.
7. A geometic photo display connecting photos with coloured string is easy and interesting.
8. When you are done with jars, recycle them! lightly curl up the photos and slip them in. The curve of the jar magnifies the image.
9. Try recycling an old shutter and attaching photos to the slats with quirky pegs.
10. Keep photos and other memorabilia from different events or places in individual boxes. This is a cool alternative to time consuming scrap books.
