Doing it Right – Decorating a Wall with Photos

Home is for your pets too

One of the secrets of a well-designed room is a wall that is properly decorated with pictures. Photo frames are one of the most common items that you can use to decorate one’s wall, but place too much pictures on the wall and it turns out like a museum or family exhibit! The keys to decorating your wall with pictures are simplicity and a message; what exactly do you want to tell to your guests every time they look at your wall of photos? Right now, most interior designers favor simple designs rather than the messy yet innovative look, but the final decision is up to you, of course.

When selecting photos or pictures for the wall, feel free to experiment with your creative side. For example, you can have different themes for the wall photos every month, depending on the mood that you want to create. With Valentines Day just around the corner, you can have sweet pictures of you and your loved one on the wall. For the newly-weds, you can put up a gallery of your favorite wedding photos!

Need some inspiration to jump-start your creativity? Here are some lovely designs for you to choose from:

1. You can find a space for all the photos that you like. Because we are sure that you have lots of them that need to be shown.

2. We all suppose that you know what a family tree is. What we don’t know is if you have ever seen photos hanging on a tree.
