Making a house feel like a home is easier when you fill it with cherished memories. One of the simplest ways to do that is by creating unique family photo displays. From gallery walls to personalized timelines, there are countless ways to showcase the people you love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A time capsule of memories, as well as a beautiful display, the right picture frames, and gallery walls<\/a> truly provide visitors with a glimpse of the personalities who live there and always give you a great conversation starter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From school photos and formal portraits to silly selfies and holiday shots, framing family photos<\/a> will make your house feel like home. Here are some family photo ideas and some of our favorite frame styles to create the perfect display to warm your home with love and memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Create an Annual Display or Timeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An annual photographic display captures your family’s growth, changes, and memories. For example, display a photo from every Christmas, birthday, the first day of school, or another annual occasion to personalize your home’s empty spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A chronological display of these annual photos truly makes a spectacular gallery wall<\/a>. Visitors will marvel at it, and your family members will be able to reminisce about the memories of time passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depending on where you plan to hang this timeline, consider matching your frame style and color to the furniture you already have. If you plan to hang this in your living room for all your guests to see, why not coordinate with your coffee table. Dark brown wood? Check out Dayton frame style<\/a> in Cocoa. Light metal? Check out our Ashford frame style<\/a> in White or Gloss Silver. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Frame Your Family Adventures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether your family vacations to the same spot each year or you love to explore new destinations, creating a gallery display of your family\u2019s travels is a wonderful way to remember all your good times -\u2014 and show off exotic travel photos<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A framed gallery wall of one special trip will hone in on the memories made together at that destination. However, a compilation of photos from various locations would make a wonderful display of various experiences. In addition, you can keep adding to this compilation for a timeline-type gallery wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, consider including your own original photography of the travel destination to truly bring you back to that place! Additionally, mementos from your travels \u2014 including plane tickets, metro cards, postcards, or wristbands \u2014 can make a lovely addition to the gallery wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your travel photos are probably filled with bright colors and unique architecture. Let those colors shine bright by using a light-colored frame. If you use something dark, it may wash out the colors in your photos. Our Derby frame style<\/a> in White would create the perfect border around your photos and won’t distract from what really matters here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
