Whether you have a static caravan you use as a home away from home or travel the country or continent in a motorhome, you can still take advantage of personalising your interior design regardless the structure.
It is only slightly trickier than usual because of the limited materials you have to work with. The only two limitations you have relate to weight, and that is how you anchor your frames because really you cannot in any type of caravan and the second is the weight of the frames.
When was the last time you backed up your photos? Not just the ones you have on your phone, but also the pictures stored in photo albums, the ones that have already been burned to DVD or CD and all the precious snaps already printed and framed, hung proudly on display.
Wall art, photos and frames are generally considered finishing touches. It is so much easier to design around wall art and accessories than it is to find accessories to match the colour and shade of your walls.
How many times have you decided on a colour scheme, painted a room, then spent longer shopping for accessories to give the space the finishing touches?
Chances are a lot, so it’s beneficial to start with the end in mind.
If you have a specific piece of wall art you want on display as a focal point, prepare it first.
Frame groupings are one of the ways you can display family photos, themed pictures, or art prints in any size of wall space you have, without having to fully plan a gallery wall.
For those unfamiliar with the concept of grouping frames together, think of it as a simple way to fill any size of empty wall space you have. The simplest frame groupings are often above a sofa or a side table and usually comprise of just three photo frames.
Traditionally, frames are hung on the wall. It’s the most prominent place to put them. Considering the effort that goes into a framing project, it only makes sense. You want your art and those photos you cherish so much to be seen by everyone who enters your home.
What do you do when you have more photos you want to show, but not enough wall space to hang them?
It will come as no surprise that the most common shape of picture frame is the rectangle. There are quite a few more though, and that variety of shape lends itself well for creating unique displays.
Depending on the size of the photos you’re framing, there may be some manipulating required to get your prints to fit into a frame. As an example, there are hexagon photo frames available to buy, but with something as unique as that, you would definitely have some print trimming to do to get your prints to fit.
There are many picture frame display ideas but trying them out is often put off because it’s so much easier to go the easy route, knock a nail in the wall, hang the frame and see if it looks good. If not, try again. That’s one way to ruin your plasterwork and décor.
Night skies can be gorgeous and are almost guaranteed to be Insta-sharable. For those who aren’t stargazers or interested in astronomy, you don’t need to be. When you see the sky turn orange, yellow or even red like it’s on fire, you will notice. The sky isn’t always the boring blue or the greys that we’re used to given the cloudy days and nights we tend to have in the UK.
Many homes have all-in-one printers capable of producing good quality photos, provided the right components are used. These include the photo paper, ink cartridges depending on your printer’s brand and for the prints you want to frame, there’s also the mounting technique and cost of that to consider too.
It never fails to surprise how fast time seemingly flies. It’s approaching March already, and that means Spring is near. Depending on which calendar you go by, it could be even sooner. The official date for Spring 2020 is March 20th. But if you go by the Meteorological calendar, it’s always going to be March 1st.
