GiftWorksPlus Makes Decorating With Photographs Simple

GiftWorksPlus |
GiftWorksPlus, your leader in personalized picture frames and customized gifts, continues the blog series this week with another installment about decorating with photographs. Last week we discussed choosing a theme, a color palette, and a display location. This week, we move on to:
1. Editing
2. Printing
3. Framing
Once you have selected your photograph and color palette, you will need to do a little editing to transform your photograph. There are many different programs available, including free online editing programs. Once you have chosen a program that works well for you, GiftWorksPlus suggests you make a copy of your original. Then crop and size the copied photograph, add any special effects, and then convert the color to match the palette you selected for your collection. Finally, save it.
Next, it is time to move to printing. The first decision to make is where you will send your photographs to be printed. There are benefits to both online developers/printers and to local ones. GiftWorksPlus recommends you research several printers, choose the one you are most comfortable with, and move forward based on their system. Whether you choose an online developer/printer or a local one, your next step is choosing the finish. Glossy prints reflect light and can really highlight vivid colors. A matte finish will not be so glare-inducing as a glossy finish and it will hide fingerprints and dust well. Make your size selections and print!
Now that you have themed prints in hand in the size and color palette you chose, make sure you have just the right engraved frames from GiftWorksPlus. Have an animal-themed collection? Choose the “Pets” tab to see a full line of customized picture frames for furry and feathered family members. To honor your American heroes, choose the engravable frames for “Armed Services”. For vacations and outdoor scenes, visit our custom frames under the “Destinations” tab.
GiftWorksPlus offers cute picture frames and frames engraved for gifts in a variety of sizes, including the common 5x7 picture frame size. As always, GiftWorksPlus custom frames company offers free personalization, and shipping is free for engraved frame orders over $50. Further, if you don’t find what you are looking for, contact us. Special requests for personalized frames are always welcome.
