Photo Decorating Ideas!


I am always looking for FuN and creative ideas to decorate with portraits online...so today... I thought I would share a peek at a few ways I have decorated with portraits in my home!
These ideas are very SiMpLe...and EASY on the budget.   

First off...these Simple Picture Boards made from 1/4" MDF, a little black paint for the edge, Mod Podge,  and your photo.  The size of these are 12x12.   A fun alternative to the regular 'ol frame!





Chicken Wire Photo Hanger (made from 1x4 cedar fence wood...and chicken wire.
We use this to hang random pics throughout the year...then when the holidays hit I use it to hang Christmas photo cards.



Just a few display ideas...




And... last but not least...my Cupboard Door Photo Hangers!  If you are familiar with my blog...you have prob. already seen these...but had to share anyway...being my favorite!  You can check out my tutorial on how I made these here!  {SIMPLE}






Well...there ya have it...hope this might give you a little inspiration to get those pics up!!

Also...don't forget to check out Kristin Duke's "Decorating With Portraits" Series for more decorating inspiration!!

  8. What are the pics printed on? It doesn't seem like regular photo material would shape well to the mdf.

  9. I just had my 12x12 matte prints printed at Costco...and only put Mod Podge onto the board...and stuck the pic right on top. I didn't apply any Mod Podge to the top of the pic...and LOVE how it turned out!

  10. Hello!
    I love all the fun ideas! Could you please share where you got your mdf board? Did they cut it for you, or did you cut it yourself?
    Thanks so much!

  11. I bought my mdf board from Home Depot. It comes in a 2'x4 ' sheet and you could prob have them cut 12x12" pieces for you there...but I just cut mine myself.
