Does anyone use their LO's to...

Wondering if anyone uses their LO's to frame and put up on the wall. I would really like to use LO's and personal pics to decorate with, but I need some inspiration on arranging. Anyone have any pics of their walls with LO's and personal pics???
 
I was considering print some on canvas (Artscow has some good deals), but I haven't done it yet.
 
I don't have any pics of it, but I have a vignette in the dining area with 4 frames in a square and I exchange the layouts in there occasionally (black frame 8x8's from Walmart). I plan on redoing our family multi-pic frames with a single layout of each family for our hallway done in the same frame style.
 
I have several framed in black frames...some 6x6, some 8x8 throughout the house. I have a grouping on an end table in the living room and some in my office. i rotate the layouts when I get tired of looking at the same ones.

I've never had any luck with 8x8 frames at walmart. maybe it's time to go look again? 8x8 is a hard size to find..I have two I bought at target but they weren't cheap!
 
I have an idea for our bedroom...a friend of ours had some smaller french doors without glass and I'm going to paint them black and put black and white pics in them and hang it above our bed, right above the headboard. I haven't done it yet, since we need to paint our room, but what I'm imagining will turn out really cool and that got me to thinking about using LO's around the house.

I haven't been able to find frames at Wal-Mart either. So I have to decide how much I want to invest in frames and then maybe do a couple canvas ones, I really like that idea!
 
I made 3 layouts specifically to go into these three faux leather frames I got at the grocery store for $2 each.

I have a large digital picture frame and have a bunch of layouts that rotate through. It is in my desk area of my living room.
 
I found a couple sets of 3 black 4x4 frames at Dollar Tree one day That I have in my living room. I have layouts in there. I'm always onthe lookout for larger ones for my kitchen & 3rd bedroom
 
I know I want to put this one in my bathroom:

I'm just waiting for Kristin to put out the girl version. *hint hint* Kristin ;)
 
I bought some 12x12 frames at Hobby Lobby months back.. I bought red, white and black. Red and white are for the boys bathroom and the black is for my office. Needless to say they are still in their packages. :blink:
I too would like to decorate my home with my pages, but I can't seem to find pretty frames for the living/dining/bedroom area though.

I know I got one white one from JCP portrait studio when they were 40% off, but it was still almost $20 by itself. They have some nice 10x10 frames.
 
I've been meaning to, but it's way down on my list so it never gets done, lol. I DO however plan on getting some of the wedding lo's I do put onto canvas. I've got tons of wall space in this house just begging for stuff to be put on it, lol.
 
Target usually has some black and white 8x8 frames. I think I've seen 12x12 there as well.

Angel, that bath layout is adorable and will be perfect in a bathroom!
 
I have mine hanging in my dining room... here is how I do it. I bought these cute wires at IKEA that string across the wall and then I clip the 12x12 prints up there in page protectors. That way I can rotate out my pages as the seasons change and when I am finished hanging them they go into my book. Its inexpensive, cute and always gets coments haha. I suppose I should take a picture of it one of these days. :)
 
I have layouts haning on a bulletin board in my guest room. The board has a fancy carved frame and the push pins are decorative so it doesn't look cheesy or messy. I change them out every month or so. BTW - Aaron Bros carries 12x12 frames if you want to frame them.
 
I bought several years ago some 12x12" acrylic frames (layouts just slide in on the side) that hang (by a ribbon)....when I went digital I started going to 8x8" layouts because of not owning a 12x12 printer (although I did print at Kinkos some)....but I recently bought a printer that will print up to 13x19" prints! I just started printing my Disney trip layouts and right now...I have 8 layouts up on my walls to look at! As I get some more pages done, I will put those into the book and the new ones up on the wall to enjoy!
