... PUT MORE PHOTOS UP!That's #4 on Photojojo's New Year's Photo Resolutions. Click here to read all 22 resolutions. I'm curious -- how do you display your pictures? I take so many photos that I can't possibly display them all, but that doesn't stop me from trying. Downstairs in our family room I have a lot of photos on the wall. Last summer I bought these collage-type picture frames for the kitchen area in our family room. These pictures don't show it well, but these are movie poster sized frames, so they're pretty big. These frames are fun and a great conversation starter for people because they can see so much at one time. For these particular frames I used photos of my family mostly in national parks or camping trips. As random as the photos look, there is sort of a theme to them. I'm thinking of getting another frame for my boy's playroom. They have a wall that could use some pictures and I thought it would be fun to make a theme of "silly kid pics" or something. I also have a digital picture frame that I totally love. For Christmas a few years back, we got them for my mom and Rick's parents. We loaded the disks up with our pictures for them. I'm hoping someday they come out with really large ones, like 50-inch frames, which would be awesome to display on my fireplace wall. One of my favorite photographs I've had printed onto a blanket. I have that in my hallway as a wall hanging. Click here if you want to see which picture it was. It's probably my favorite mountain goat picture I've taken so far. I think if you click on the photographs, they might enlarge, if you want to see the pictures closer (note: second one does). So, I was just curious how everyone else displays their photographs. Anyone have any new ideas?
Hi Rena. Love the photo display btw.

Hey Rena - I love the mountain goat! Too cute. We also seem to have alot of photos! We have a couple of the big collage type pictures - one I did of all my family back to some distant great-greats and all in black and white. Turned out very cool (if I do say so myself!) We also seem to have pictures in various sizes and frames over most of the walls. And this year for Christmas I got a digital picture frame which we have in the den. (I am with you though - I wish it was bigger!) Our pics are mainly the kids with some of the places we have travelled mixed in. I just love pictures.
ReplyDeleteWow! Look at that photo frame!! woot! :)
ReplyDeleteCheck my blog http://vivianzabel.blogspot.com for notice of an honor for your blog.
ReplyDeleteI have pictures up all over the house. Some frames my husband made, some I bought, some were presents - so none match - I call it eclectic.
ReplyDeleteI have pictures. Really. In boxes, in drawers, in closets...
ReplyDeleteI've some friends who are photograhers who make up photo pages like you have. I love going into their house and just getting a gimpse of their lives.
ReplyDeleteIt's also graet to see all the great memories you have as a family and concentrate on the good times.
I don't have that kind of energy to do what you've done. Wow. Impressive. I put all my pictures in photo ablums- boring!
WOW! I love the pictures. It was very well-arranged and laid out perfectly. Your home must look so nice with that photo resolutions! :)
ReplyDeleteI like your Photot resolution. I'm terrible about taking digital pics and then never getting them off the camera or computer. I need to buy a few of these collage frames and get my butt in gear!
ReplyDeleteWe are big on photos as well. I was going to suggest the digital picture frame, but you have one and a bigger one would be awesome! I also have pictures come up on my computer all day when it is on save mode. Sometimes I get lost in them looking at all the old and new pics! My other pics are in lots of frames on book cases, some on the walls. But most unfortunately are in a plastic bin!
ReplyDeleteMy dad is a photographer and has his own photo room with his computer, printer, slides, etc. He has big, big framed photos of family and nature on every inch of the walls! He has others filed and in boxes.
ReplyDeleteI've got tons of pictures, a lot of them old, from the days of my grandparent. I'm in the process of trying to organize them and scan them and hopefully make an album or two.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great resolution. I am seriously behind at organizing our photos.
ReplyDeleteYour display looks great!
