Since yesterday's post I've had a couple people ask about my photo wall so I decided that I'd make that my next post before you all forget about it. I think it's a cool idea and can be as expensive or as inexpensive as you want to make it. The photos were uploaded to WalMart for $3 a piece so I had $36 in photos. As for the frames and mats, you can choose to your creative heart's content!
We chose the black mats with the black frames because we have a lot of black in the house as we have more of a contemporary look. This one measures about 34" x 55" and if fits perfectly in this space. If you don't want to make it as big, you can make it to any size you want. You can even find some awesome collage frames that holds several 5 x 7 or 4 x 6 sized pictures and you can set the theme on those.
We obviously chose a nature theme for this room but after 2 years we've become tired of these images. We're thinking it's time to change the pictures. I'm thinking maybe the next theme will be structures and architecture, or bridges, or beach scenes, or Yosemite, oh heck, I can't decide!
A photo grouping would also be cute in a kitchen or dining room and you can use a cooking and food theme.....
Nice idea and space saving too.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! You can personalize your decor--and change out the pictures without blowing the budget. The Design on a Dime teams could learn from you!
ReplyDeleteI love your photo wall! I've been meaning to do something similar... hopefully this will inspire me to get started!! :)
