It’s been a while since I have written anything to do with the house. To be honest, I haven’t had the time or money to do anything to it. Recently though, I have given Erin pride of place in our living room.
A few weeks ago at Baby Sensory we were able to have a photo session with Louise Walpole Photography which was fantastic. The session didn’t cost us anything and there was no pressure to buy anything. However, I loved most of Erin’s photos so I had to buy some.
Last week I found some chunky black 7×5 frames in Sainsbury’s on sale for only £4 each. I bought 5!! I knew that I wanted black frames to do a picture wall somewhere in the house at some point so I bought all the frames Sainsbury’s had. I bought photos of Erin, 2 were 7×5 and 1 was 10×8 so I couldn’t frame all 3 pictures.
I’m not quite sure where the picture wall is going to go yet but I was desperate to put up the pictures of my little girl. Our mantelpiece needed a bit of rearranging so I decided the pictures would go there, where I could see them every day. Unfortunately this has meant wedding photos of me and John have come down now.
I am so in love with how this looks. The black frames are fantastic. Now I have two photos framed it makes me want to get a load more done.
We had another photo session done a couple of weeks ago and I’ll be ordering some more prints soon. I have a spare 3 frames so I know exactly what will go in them now. Unfortunately, I have no where to put them at the moment until I redecorate a room and make a feature of the framed pictures.
How do you display family photos around your home?
I love putting all my pictures in frames. I find b and m reallu good for frames. It really makes a difference to a home.
We are moving soon and when we are all settled and decorated I want to start having framed photos around the home too. At the moment I only have two canvases from my youngest twos baby photo shoots xx
ah its amazing how many photos be taken down of our selves when bubs comes along…
You really have made a lovely display of the pictures, I think the black frames really make the pictures pop.

Thanks Jordanne! I can’t wait to get some more framed now. I’ve got the bug.
A lovely display. I love displaying pictures around the house and have lots of different ways of doing this. I hope you find somewhere to put your wedding photos, as I think it would be a shame for them to not be displayed too. x
They look fab. We have a feature wall with different style frames on, almost like a collage.
It is addictive, but I don’t think I’ve got enough walls in the house to hold all of our photos! 🙂
We have a couple of frames on the wall. Love it. They make it feel so homely.
They look great there. Most of ours are up on our walls but I need to put some shelves up and pop them on there x
