Where Do You Display Your Family Photos?

August 22, 2008 by jeanmartha

I snapped this picture the other day while I was standing on the stairs. I try to keep all of the family photos in the hallway and/or in my bedroom. There are a few elsewhere (my Mom is nothing if not rebellious) and of course the fridge is covered. How do you display family photos? I’ve never really understood the whole “pictures of the family all over the living room wall” thing but that’s just me, I suppose.

Speaking of Mom, check out this cute little upcycle thing she’s got going on. Assume berries came in this container and now she’s rocking granola bars in it. Cute! Cute!

The sewing instructor blew me off…AGAIN. So glad I raced to the atm and then home so that I could sit here and wonder where she is only to get an email 45 minutes after she’s due to arrive saying that she’s not going to make it. Flake. Dang, I could have done another lap at Lord & Taylor!

I figured out how to remove the bags from under my eyes with the photo edit tool.

Yay! Goodbye bag lady!

    In the new house, we no longer had a fireplace mantle – whoops! Where to put the photos? Mostly, they’re spread out in little bits here and there, but we put a huge chunk in the guest room; relatives stay there, and they’ll want to see them, anyway!

    I love the bag-removal and am off to get the dark circles out of all my photos. Photox for everyone!

    Photox–love it!

    I’ve never been a fan of the photo wall, and start to get a bit anxious if there are more than three framed photos in a group. A couple on my desk are fine, a couple more in the bedroom. I keep a photo of my dad close at hand, because I miss him a lot, but I don’t need to see my kindergarten or high school graduation photos on a daily basis, or my brother’s first baby steps, etc.

    My mom, on the other hand, loves a good photo wall. So far, I’ve managed to contain her enthusiasm to just her bedroom and sewing room.

    I am thinking of getting a single quality digital photo frame to load photos into, and will place it in the living room.

    It removes the bags from under eyes. Wow, cheaper than filler or botox. Just have to work out how to get my head inside the imac…..

    No photos hanging in my house – don’t even HAVE a current family photo. Guess I should do that one day….
