10 Ways to Use a Picture Frame
Trying to decorate your home yourself often can be an overwhelming task, so we are here to help with some creative framing ideas. Plain photos on the wall may not achieve quite the look you’re hoping for, so let’s see how you can utilize all those beautiful picture frames…
Here is a list of 10 ways to use a picture frame that you can adapt to your personal style and color scheme.
1. Wall Collage
One of the simplest ways is to load up your walls with them. Whether full of pictures or just interesting frames, your walls will get a unique splash of visual interest.
2. Beautifying Household Fixtures
Everyone has necessary switches and thermostats that may not look the best hanging out on a wall. Celebrate them!
Who remembers this??
3. Racks
Like the fixtures, racks may not be the most attractive items in your house. Throw a frame in there to bring some life to the hangers-ons.
4. Message Boards
Always leaving post-its and pieces of paper with notes for your housemates? Reduce the paper clutter by using a framed corkboard or chalkboard.
5. Trays
For boring tabletops, find a frame with interesting details and use it as a decorative (or even useful!) tray.
6. Table
Conversely, just to have a more interesting table!
7. Framing Unusual Things
For those with a flair that’s a little more adventurous, try framing things one wouldn’t normally think to frame.
8. Clocks
Instead of getting a clock from the home store, make sure that yours stands out by using picture frames for the numbers.
9. Defining Space
Putting a lot of frames together might seem like hard work, but this ceiling collage made up of spray-painted thrift store frames is an easy way to balance the scale of this room with high ceilings.
