Leave photo albums out for easy viewing.
Display your photos in a way that makes a design statement in your home. Use family photos, decorative frames and shelves to make a wall display. Choose a single large photo to highlight it or create a collage of framed photographs clustered together on one wall. Rotate the way photos are displayed and you'll create a revolving art gallery comprised of family photographs.
Wall Display
Create a wall display featuring a framed photograph. Hang the framed photograph so the middle of the picture is at eye-level. Center the framed photograph so it's either centered on the wall or centered over the main piece of furniture that'll be placed beneath the photograph. Use a wall anchor so the photograph doesn't work loose and fall, damaging the photo and the furniture below it.
Easel
Purchase an easel in the same finish as the frame on the photograph. Position the easel where you want the photo to be and center the framed photograph on the easel. For safety, if there is a hanging wire on the back of the photo, loop it over the top of the easel. The wire helps secure the framed photograph to the easel while it hangs, out of sight, behind the photo.
Shelf
Hang a picture or plate shelf on the wall. Position it so the top of the shelf is where you want the bottom of the framed photograph to be positioned on the wall. Use wall anchors so the shelf stays stable in the wall. Set the framed photograph on top of the shelf. Use a small amount of rubber shelf liner to prevent the photo from sliding around on the shelf. Cut the shelf liner into a very thin strip and set it on the shelf. Stand the frame on top if it. The frame hides the shelf liner from view and the photo won't slide around.
Photo Album
Purchase a high-quality photo album. Choose a decorative photo album and display it on the coffee table. Select an album with acid-free papers so the photos are safe. Select corner protectors and position them on the photograph. Center the photograph on a page in the album and adhere the photo into place with adhesive photo dots. Place several photo dots on the back of the photo and one on each photo corner. Press the photo to the album to secure it. Use photo dots so you can remove the photo without damaging it.
