Creative Ways to Display Photos

I think I’ve mentioned on here before that I am the absolute worst about getting photos into frames.  It’s not just that they live in my camera or on my phone . . . it’s that even when I have them actually printed out, it takes me forever to get them into frames!  It drives my husband nuts (hmm . . . maybe that’s why I’m doing it!), because there is always an empty frame sitting on a table or hanging on the wall.  Oops.

Well, despite my shortcomings in the photo display department, others seem to have no problem with this issue.  You would not believe how many creative ways to display photos are out there!  Clearly these people have no problem getting their photos printed, into frames, or into some other gorgeous photo display!  Just look at some of the creative ideas I found across blogland . . . Get your photos off of your phone or camera and into one of these creative photo displays that you can make! Such great alternatives to the typical picture frame.

You guys are not going to believe some of these ideas!
