Hey everyone!!  I’m Mandy from the super-awesome blog Sugar Bee Crafts  –

I’m super excited to be here on Capturing Joy – I’m been a huge fan of Kristen’s for years and years, and I’m even lucky enough to get to meet up online with her awesomeness each month.  And I absolutely love the Decorate with Pictures series – I just LOVE having pictures up in my home – it’s how I adorn my walls.

Let me show you some of my favorite spots where I have photo’s displayed…

First up, I am weak for a giant picture.  I made one for my girls room and it went viral online – I like to think I started a craze 🙂  You can make one for super cheap and I have the Original DIY Giant Photo For Cheap tutorial to walk you through how to make one for yourself.  I just love how it’s huge and makes a big statement.  My girls share a room and the picture shows how great sisters are.  I also have a family one in our dining room, which is visible when people enter our home, in a casual happy fun family picture.

  

But you don’t need to get overwhelmed with a big project to display photos – small and simple can be just as amazing.  I recently made this colorful Photo Frame Mini Banner and I walk you through how to make one yourself.  A fun craft for an afternoon, and it really showcases the photos – I have this clipped up to a display in my entryway where everyone can see it.

I love having professional looking pictures, but I also love causal pictures.  In our family room, which is more casual than our living room, I have family pictures from vacations and fun activities on display.  The kids love to look them over and talk about their memories of each picture.  I mounted the snapshot on simple foam board and talk about it on this post: Snapshot Gallery Wall

In the same room on an adjacent wall I have this Photo Wall Display Board with close-ups of the kiddos that I just love:

And I have a tutorial for that as well: Photo Wall Art Display Board

 

And of course I think that every home needs a gallery wall.  I have ours in our living room and it showcases our family pictures (I need to get updated ones!) .  You can read more about how I transformed the whole room, with the Gallery Wall as the focus, here: Living Room Reveal  I love the mix of color and black & white photos and the fun frames mixed with traditional frames.




Thanks for letting me share some ways that I display photos in my home.  Hope to see you over on www.SugarBeeCrafts.com for lots of fun DIY tutorials and more!
