Check out these ideas to elevate your décor and add a special touch to your home.
5 Unique Decorative Ideas for Displaying Custom Frames in Your Home
We’ve put together these five unique location suggestions for displaying custom frames. These suggestions help maximize your space and add visual appeal to otherwise uninteresting areas. Some areas are often overlooked, and custom frames can add visual interest and dimension to the space. They also make great conversation starters!
Right Above an Eyesore
You put a lot of TLC into your home and want everything to be just perfect so that every room is appealing. Nothing throws off the vibe more than an eyesore. Think about basic imperfections like awkwardly placed light switches and thermostats.
Strategically placing custom framed pictures near eyesores can transform items that are visual distractions even if they can’t be covered up. This provides a clever solution that can enhance a room’s aesthetic appeal without drawing eyes to distractions. Custom framed family photos or scenic prints are great options.
Near Your Medicine Cabinet
You may not think of your medicine cabinet very often. It’s not usually part of your daily routine unless it is interrupted by sickness. The bathroom is a great place to create an intriguing display of framed art. You may not open and close your medicine cabinet too often, but you can surround it and almost make it disappear with some great artwork. Small or large items can be perfect additions to your bathroom.
Placing some framed art in your bathroom maximizes this small space and adds some visual appeal. It can also provide a reminder of how important self-care is in your busy life. You may choose a custom frame print or something that shares a comforting message. Try adding a custom framed serene beach scene or a print with a positive saying.
In the Kitchen or Pantry
The kitchen is the heart of any home. Your family gathers there to talk about their day. Many memories are made in a home’s kitchen. Adding unique custom framed items to your kitchen décor can change the whole atmosphere of this busy room.
If you want to try something totally unconventional, try integrating framed art into your pantry. What a great opportunity to infuse creativity and charm into your life. Framed art along the pantry walls or shelves can transform the space into a visual delight. While you are reaching for ingredients or organizing supplies, you’ll be greeted with some pizazz! Talk about turning simple tasks into joyful experiences.
Some great ideas for custom framed items to use to decorate your kitchen with include:
- Custom framed family recipe cards
- Custom frame herb and spice prints
- Custom frame vintage cookbook covers
Above and Below Spaces
Above Spaces
If you want a unique way to display your custom frames, add some frames above unique areas. This is a great way to maximize your space and use areas of a room that may be underutilized. Think about tight spaces like above doors for hanging pictures. These lesser-thought-of areas can make great picture-hanging locations.
Utilizing vertical spaces draws the eyes upward, which can create a sense of drama and height to the room. Try a small piece of custom framed art or a series of framed items arranged in a gallery. Above the door space gives you a great creative area for you to express yourself. Consider hanging custom framed inspirational quotes, horizontal landscapes, or botanical prints.
Below Spaces
Add a juxtaposition between the natural light coming in through the window and the custom framed piece by placing it below the window. It can be a great addition to a cozy reading nook, adding visual interest. Some great options include custom framed nature photos, travel memories, and personal artwork.
Bold Custom Frames by Fireplaces
Who doesn’t love a picture placed on a mantle? It’s prime real estate for custom frames, but think creatively beyond the obvious. Leaning a custom framed object against your fireplace lets a bigger piece of art liven up the blank spot. It’s a great opportunity to showcase your flair. And it’s perfect if you don’t use your fireplace or if you live in a warmer climate and don’t use it often.
Custom framed artwork in front of your fireplace lets you switch up the room’s décor for special occasions or seasonal changes. It’s a great location with endless potential and space to express your creativity using unique frame choices. Some great ideas for this area include:
- Custom framed oil paintings
- Custom framed family portraits
- Custom framed seasonal images
