Framing For Designers To Achieve Home Decoration

By Alice Bursnell


If you are looking for a way to decorate your home, consider using pictures to decorate empty walls in your house. Good photos or art will make your home look stylish and add more life and color to your environment. To increase the appeal of your wall art, consider using frames. Here are some tips on framing for designers.

Choose the type of frame to be used. This includes the use of metal, plastic or wooden frames. You can also consider using a mat or canvas to frame your picture. Your choice of frame will largely be determined by the type of picture that you want framed. If the picture is meant to be hung, ensure that the frame provides for this. Also check that the frame has something at the back to prop it up, if it is meant to be propped up on a surface.

You can purchase frames at multiple places. It all depends on what you are looking for. For customized frames, go to shops that deal with personalized orders. If you just want a regular frame, check with retailers who have a wide selection of frames. Do not forget to check online stores as well, as their frames are usually affordable. You also have the choice of buying the supplies that you need and custom make you own frame.

The frames you go for will be determined by the number of photos that you want to put up in the same place. If you are putting up multiple photos in the same room, it is best to use frames with the same design. The frames should complement the interior decor of the rest of the room. If you are only going to put up two or three photos, you can choose more exotic designs.

The color of the frame you choose matters. You can use a frame which has the same color as some of the elements in your photo. Alternatively, you can choose a frame color that contrasts with the photo this will help to make the photo stand out more.

Consider the size of the frame. This will be influenced by the size of the image. You can opt for large frames with a bottom heavy border for small photos or you can opt for a large frame with thin borders for large pieces of artwork.

Go for frames that are easy to use. This will save you a lot of time and a lot of hassle. The easier it is to use a frame, the less stress free it will be for you. Ordinarily, find a frame that you can just open, insert the image and close.

If you are planning on using a particular image for a long time, opt for a high quality frame. This will most likely be expensive. On the other hand, if you are framing an ordinary unsigned artwork, a standard frame will just work fine.
