6 Impressive Ways to Display Photos

Friday, April 5th, 2019

The American Cherry Suffolk Lowboy: The traditional way of displaying photographs is in beautiful frames that match the furniture in your home.

Since the time when phone and digital photography became accessible to everyone, there were no longer a lot of people who print photographs. This is a sad thing because looking at digital copies is not the same flicking through those pieces of pictures and reliving the memories.

 

Did you know that you could actually display photos of you and your family, even your most fun travels and have them become a decorative part of your home in the process?

 

Here are ways that you can immortalize those lovely moments right in your home –

 

Tucked in Your Mirror Frame

 

Okay, here’s a pro tip – please do not flood the mirror frames with narcissistic selfies. Cast those aside for a moment and post, not on Instagram or Facebook but in a mirror frame, the photographs that actually mean a lot to you.

 

That simple mirror corner is a casual part of the mirror but it can also hold memories that you have long forgotten. Were you lucky enough to go to Paris? Then have those photos printed and display them by tucking them in your favorite living room mirror.

 

If the mirror does not have the usual lip, then you could use a blue poster tack which can help the photos stay put. These can be easily removed come the time that you want to display other photos.

 

Onto a Magnetic Surface

 

Another wonderful way to create a photo display is on a magnetic surface. You can add a lot of photos in just a matter of minutes. The refrigerator method may have been overdone quite a bit by now so it’s time to find a different magnet board, perhaps, a magnetic wall or a railing on the stairs going up to the bedrooms.

 

In a Wicker Basket

 

What else could a wicker basket be used for apart from putting toiletries or important documents? Nope, not your towel display but a bunch of photos!

 

Imagine having a bunch of photos placed inside a beautiful bowl or a tray. And imagine if you have more and they’re now displayed in a wicker basket.

 

Your friends and relatives will surely have a great time reminiscing the happenings in those photographs once they get their hands on them. You won’t even have to worry about starting conversations because those photos are surely going to keep hours of conversations going.

 

Taped on Walls

 

Picture frames are the traditional ways to display your photos in your home, whether that’s in the living room, bedroom, the dining area, or even in the busiest room such as the kitchen.

 

Old photographs can be grouped according to year or events or places. The categories depend on you. As soon as you’re able to pick a few that you surely enjoy, you can tape those to a wall and create a collage that is now the focal wall of that room.

 

What could be more artsy than that?

 

In Mason Jars

 

Why not?

 

One photo can be placed in an upright position inside a mason jar. What could be simpler than this? You won’t have to worry about hanging them at the right height anymore. All you have to do is to figure out how which tabletop to put the jars onto so that they create the most amazing effect.

 

Under the Coffee Table Glass

 

Imagine displaying pictures of your favorite family vacations right where the guests could get a good view of them each time. And here’s an even more amazing thing – you won’t have to worry about them destroying the photo.

 

You can even layer the photos so that you create a chronicle of your most recent trips with your family.
