Wooden Photo Frames: Decoration Done Inexpensively

You do not have to indulge in overspending when you want to redecorate your home. If you are thinking of adding some changes to your interior, look no further than picture frames. What makes this sort of decoration so trendy for many decades (and certainly is not one to wane anytime soon) is pictures are a recorded memory of some beautiful moment that is not to come back and frames nowadays have turned into art. You can use your personal memories as your own wall art, for instance, and not have to waste money on some modern abstract pieces you might not understand what they mean. Photo frames are functional in the way they protect your beautiful photos from damage and display their beauty.

When it comes to choosing the right photo frames, I have to say my favourite ones are those made from wood. Wooden photo frames are versatile and add character to any space. You can find a variety of wooden photo frames for sale that are really made of wood, so rest assured you will get quality. As is the case with latest trends suggested by designers, an interior gets a special look when natural materials are incorporated and what could be better than the charm of a wooden frame? With Aspen – Oak Natural you can have a warm touch of nature in your décor.

Most wooden picture frames consist of four pieces of wood, cut at angles and glued together. This simple construction makes this type of frame durable and easy to repair. What I most like about these frames is that wood is pretty easy to match with your existing furniture and home style. Same as photos, they come in standard sizes.

Perhaps one of the challenges you might come across with when buying a wooden frame is choosing the right one for a specific picture. Here is my tip: when trying to match a picture with a frame, it helps to think of combining prominent colours in the picture with the frame. For example, if the background picture colour is white, you can go for a white frame; same goes with black and white pictures where you can also opt for a black frame. This is the ideal blend that sophisticated, minimalist and Scandinavian styled homes could go with.

Wooden photo frames can be used in a great deal of interesting ways, not just for adding your pictures. You could use them for displaying your kids’ artwork, framing unusual objects or simply leave them empty. The fact is, the world of frames is so extensive as they themselves are art and they spark uniqueness on your walls and spaces. Here are some different ideas on how to use your wooden frames as decorations.

A rail or picture shelf with a large grouping of pictures of your family will be one of your favourite home spots to look at. Arrange them with some candles around, decorative figurines or add the initial letter of your last name and you get your own special family corner.

To bring individuality to a long wall in a hallway or above a sofa, place a group of photos in a vertical line. You can create a chic, cohesive look, by using the same frame with several photos and hanging them in a central line with 5cm of space in between separating each. You can create a similar effect by hanging more frames in a circular position. The possibilities are endless and it is all up to your taste.
