Simple Family Photo Displays

I absolutely love to decorate my house with family photos.  I  want my home to be a reflection of what I stand for and love, and that is definitely my family. 🙂

Photos of loved ones always add a personal, sweet touch to the home too.

So today I want to show some very simple ways that we display ours around the house.

 

 This is our mantel in our living area where I always hang our large family picture, that we get printed and mounted at Nations Photo Lab, front and center.   We’ve had comments from guests that the photo looks back-lit because the colors are so vibrant and bright!  It almost glows, lol.I found the “Families are Forever” piece at Deseret Book quite a while ago.  I like symmetry and simplicity in decor, so I placed one dried greenery-filled vase on each side of the framed photo.  I bought the vases and the greenery at Hobby Lobby when they were 50% off and put them together.

We have a big wall right in our entry way where I get to display/show off oodles of cute pictures of my kiddos.  The 8×8 square frames are from Hobby Lobby.  I found them in a clearance section, though, so they may not still be available.  Square frames are really hard to find!  But I learned this week that Nations Photo Lab will print, frame and ship photos to you, and they are available in square!

The focal point is the gorgeous gallery-wrapped canvas of my sweet kids, that I made through Nations Photo Lab.  It’s so eye-catching and brings a huge pop of color to the area.  I love it!  Eventually I want to fill the entire wall space with canvases, because I’m hooked now!

For our family name sign, I bought an unpainted wood plaque at Hobby Lobby, sanded and painted it, then cut out the lettering on my Silhouette.

What do you think?
Do you love to display family photos around your home?

    Gorgeous! I have a mantel like this that I need to reclaim as it usually gets cluttered with kid's artwork. I really want to do a gallery wall as well, but need to find a whole lot of matching frames.
