How to Plan Your Picture Frames around a Living Space

With so many online articles, videos, and TV shows dedicated to interior design, it’s easy to get persuaded by the endless possibilities of DIY renovations. However, very rarely do these sources reveal how to incorporate your own personal flare in each design. We all want a living space that looks homey and chic, but we also want it to include our personality and charm. A simple, yet creative way to achieve this is by including picture frames of friends and family within your living space. This week at GiftWorksPlus, we wanted to share some DIY design tips on how to incorporate custom photo frames into your home, without compromising the elements of style and sophistication! Identify the Room’s Purpose: For living rooms, family rooms, or home offices, you may want to include picture frames with rustic designs. Our wooden engraved frames are great at doing this! They help create a warm and cozy atmosphere. However, in a kitchen, you may opt for a classic black or white picture frame to create a slightly more energized space for people to gather. Color Schemes: Sometimes, it’s hard to match your frames with the wood color used throughout the space. Remember that mismatching is something you shouldn’t shy away from. Be bold! Try mixing and matching colors of wood in a single space, so long as they provide contrast. The truth is if you try to match your frames with the exact color, but they look slightly different, they could end up clashing and ruining the whole look! Beware of Cluttered Spaces: Photo frames that stand on a surface are the easiest to set around the home for decoration. However, if you have too many frames on one surface, certain frames will get stuck in the background. Plus, it can be tricky to dust around them. Limit the number of picture frames placed on one surface to avoid clutter and unnecessary obstacles when cleaning. If you’re looking to enhance your space with a few personal touches, a personalized photo frames from GiftWorksPlus is a great place to start. Browse our website to view our custom frames.
