10 creative ideas for displaying your photographs

Bored with storing your images in traditional photo albums and scrapbooks?

There are so many fun alternatives - take a look at my selection below!

1. Various frames.

Position a collection of different style frames in varying sizes on your wall or surface. Look for frames that compliment each other but are not identical. This will create a great focal point within the room.

2. String or ribbon & pegs.

Choose a nice quality ribbon in a colour that compliments your room. Hang the ribbon across the wall or area that you want to display your images on. Use pegs to attach your images to the ribbon – voila! A great alternative. For a more rustic look you could use standard string.

3. A wall collage.

If you are feeling really creative then this one is for you. Arrange your photographs on the wall. You can choose to display them in a shape, for example, a heart, a star or similar. If you prefer a random design then go for it!

4. Photo tree.

A photo tree works a little like a ‘family tree’. You could literally stencil a tree onto a wall and position your images on the different branches.

5. Cushions.

Many companies now print images on to various items. Printing your favourite photos onto a cosy cushion is a great way of displaying them!

6. Clip boards.

This is a really funky way to display your photographs. Simply clip an image on to the clipboards and hang! Would work great in a teenagers bedroom.

7. Posters.

Why not go large! Instead of a standard size image choose to display your photographs on a poster. You can have one large image or a collage of your favs

8. Decorative display plates.

Plates are a really nice way of showcasing your images. You can arrange them by hanging them on a wall or use stands on a surface.

9. Blocks.

The advantage to photo blocks is that you can display multiple images using only a small space. Place one photo per side!

10. Bottles & jars.

This is a rather unique way of displaying your photos. Collect a selection of clear bottles or jars, in different shapes and sizes. Make sure you clean and dry them well! Insert your chosen images then position them.
