Velvet Photo Frames
FAQs
Photo frames come in a few different formats, depending on where you'd like to display them and how many photos you want to show.
You'll also find photo frames in a range of materials, including wood, metal, glass and acrylic. If you're choosing a new frame, check the size of your photo first, then decide whether you'd like to display it on a surface, hang it on the wall, or do both.
Choosing the right size starts with measuring your photo or artwork. Many styles are available in standard sizes with dimensions such as 4" x 6", 5" x 7", 8" x 10" and A4. Some options include a mount, which can create extra space around the image and give it a more polished look. When selecting one, always check the dimensions in the product description to ensure it fits your chosen photo perfectly.
A gallery wall is a simple way to turn a collection of cherished photos, artwork and prints into a statement display. Start by laying out your chosen options on the floor to experiment with different arrangements before hanging them. Mixing sizes, orientations and a multi-aperture frame can add visual interest. All while keeping a consistent colour palette or finish to help create a cohesive look. Leave even spacing between each piece for a balanced display.
The best way to hang one depends on its size, weight and where you plan to display it. Before hanging, measure and mark your desired position, checking that everything is level. For heavier pieces, use suitable wall fixtures and fixings for your wall type, while lighter styles may only require a picture hook. If you're hanging multiple frames together, planning the layout beforehand can help achieve a neat, considered finish.
