how to decorate your mantelIt’s not that your framed photos look bad… it’s just that they could look better.

After all, beautiful pictures of your family are always in style, but with this quick little tip you can make your mantel, book shelf or walls look so much more polished!how to frame photosIn my living room I’ve got all my photos framed in shades of silver. They can be different hues or different texture but they’re all a similar color. The frames feel coordinated and the photos stand out where as when you have a mix of color, texture and material your mantel may look cluttered or too busy. 

I’d suggest you start by going through your house and grouping your frames together by color. Then you can rearrange the photos inside them and group everything together in a way that’s pleasing to the eye. Also, keep a lookout for frames that are on sale in your colors. My silver frame collection has everything from fancy to 99 cents store… as long as it matches, it gets put on the shelf! ~Rachel
