Do you remember the "old days" when you'd take a photograph and you'd have NO clue what it looked like until you had your roll of film developed? There was some excitement and anticipation about the photos you captured through your camera. Like: "were they any good?" Hahaha. Back in the day, you HAD to have the photo developed/printed to know what it looked like. And with a printed image, we were way more inclined to to put in an album or a frame. Today is much different. We get instant results. Digital cameras certainly help us to cut down on clutter and thousands of 4x6 printed photos stored in keepsake boxes. But, I have a question for you.... When's the last time you took a photograph, printed it off, and displayed it in your home? Sure, digital cameras are awesome, but if we're honest, digital cameras also make it easy for us to take photos and leave them stored in our phones, computers, or cameras never to be seen or enjoyed ever again. We no longer have to print photos to know what they look like or to share them with loved ones. I'm a culprit of "failing to print" as well. I have thousands of photos captured in my phone, on my computer, and on memory cards, but now I'm finding ways to get them printed and displayed so my family can enjoy them now, and for years to come. Here are 4 fun ways you can display photographs in your home. 1. A Giant Framed Collage Take a bunch of your photos and turn them into a giant poster collage and frame it. It's a clean look to display a bunch of photos in on place. You can have a theme for your collage--or not. It's all up to you! {Photo Credit: Pinterest} 2. Frames Multiplied Individually frame your photos and layer them on floating shelves. Want a little tip on how to get lots of frames at a great price? Check your local thrift stores. Some frames come with images in them, take them out and put yours in--this way you can get lots of frames at a low price! {Photo Credit: Lenore-Nevermore} 3. Swappable Clipboard Displays Hang up a few clipboards (or as many as you want) to display your photos. This is pretty clever--the photos can be swapped in and out really quick! {Photo Credit: Danielle Hatcher} 4. Customized Photo Book This is a great way to get a lot of photos off of your digital devices. We have our books on a coffee table in our living room so they can be enjoyed at any time. We often find guests perusing through the albums. It's a fun way to relive and remember our experiences. {Photo Credit: Artifact Uprising} Let's let our pictures see the light of day & get them printed and displayed. This list is obviously not exhaustive. There are way more than 4 fun ways to display photographs in your home. Do you do something I haven't listed?
