Creative types - I need help!

tlxh7 · August 2011

In Lila's bedroom, we have one long wall with nothing on it - it's the wall her crib and changing table are up against. The other three walls have either windows or closet, so the space is really broken up. The long wall is about 9 feet long. I want to do a series of photos of Lila, one for each month until her first birthday, so 12 photos total. I can't quite decide how to showcase them. My best idea so far is to do 12 frames, 10 5x7s for months 2-11, 2 8x10s for month one and twelve. I would then hang them in a waving fashion along the wall, in order.

Any other ideas on how to do this? Can I use different types of frames? Or do they all have to be the same?

You could choose a color and find all different sorts of frames (I like vintage look):

I'd probably cluster them on one side of the wall and not necessarily in order and maybe put a sticker in the corner that denotes the age. On the other side of the wall maybe try a whimsical decal to go with the frames?

That's kind of a big wall to just have pics on it, IMO.

I've used lots of different frames and sizes when working with large walls - think outside the box of standard photo sizes or use giant matting, etc. Another option would be to digitally arrange them and have them printed onto canvas or board.
