Tips to Using Custom Frames to Enhance Your Home Décor

Keeping your home looking pristine and current all year round is demanding. It doesn’t have to be. All you need are custom photo frames and a spark of creativity, and voila! Crafting custom- made frames is an easy solution to enhancing your entire home décor. But learning how to craft a custom frame is not sufficient. You need to learn ways of harmonising framed artwork with your décor and its surroundings. This post will provide you handy tips on how to do just that.

Framing experts are good at what they do because they’ve learned how to harmonise custom frames and artwork to fit the overall style of a home and its surroundings. If you don’t have the time to keep up with seasonal décor from one holiday to another, you’re in the right place. These tips are easy to master, so you can (effortlessly) do it yourself.

#1: Don’t use a wooden frame on a hardwood floor – To achieve an eye-catching finish, your artwork needs to remain conspicuous instead of fading into the background. A wooden frame on a beautiful hardwood floor does just that. It fades into the background remaining “hidden” as it overwhelms the surroundings. So rather than using wooden custom frames that match the floor, consider those with a contrasting finish. This way, your artwork will remain in plain sight.

#2: Choose unique spaces to display your framed artwork – To draw the eye to your artwork, you need to be creativity with how you display your striking pieces. Look for unique spaces in like on that bookcase shelve, in the corner on a floor easel, or even above the doorway. If you have an open floor plan with fewer walls, take advantage of the space to creatively display your custom photo frames (and the artwork) so as to be seen from a longer distance. Be excessively imaginative.

#3: Fill vaulted ceilings with vertical pieces – To achieve an excellent focal point of a vaulted ceiling, choose more dramatic vertical pieces of artwork to fill the space. Again, this calls for creativity. The idea is to take advantage of the extra height that comes with a vaulted ceiling, so hang your artwork vertically on the wall. This way, your custom frames and artwork will be more visible. To fill more vertical space, try matting your frame borders bottom weighted or just extended.

#4: Use neutral matte coloured photo frames – A colourful wall is very easy on the eye. However, it only enhances a home’s décor if it’s well finished or executed, and this is achievable. If your walls are colourful or not, you can still bring out your walls beauty by using neutral matte coloured custom picture frames. They have an outstanding ability to look good on either background.

Your being creative is what will enhance the overall look of your home décor. Nothing else! But more importantly, you must learn how to play with your custom frames. Get crazy, combine and overlap multiple pieces until your achieve a look that amazes. It doesn’t get easier than this.
