Quick and easy ways to display photos

Many of us like to have pictures on display, but sometimes getting them to that point can be hindered by trying to get the ‘right’ frames, as well in deciding where to display them.

Here are a couple of quick and simple ways to get your pictures out and in view where everyone can enjoy them.

Magnetic Photo Rope

“Cool!” “Awesome!” “Amazing!” Words from the mouths of those in the teen category upon using the magnetic photo rope. However this handy little gem is not limited to the under-30 crowd. The photo rope will get your pictures up and going in practically no time.

The 58” cable, which comes in 5 different colors, has a loop at the top for easy hanging, and is weighted at the bottom to keep it straight. It comes with 8 (surprisingly strong) little magnets that keep the photos in place. And…it’s easy to adjust photos up and down the rope.

These magnetic ropes have a myriad of uses. Here are just a few suggestions:

• Display greeting cards from all occasions and holidays
• When it’s a family members birthday, use the cable as ‘feature’ spot with pictures of the honoree
• Use to highlight your own photos of the month/week
• Show off the postcards you gathered while on vacation
• School teachers can use them to highlight classroom helpers and students of the month
• Have one for each child in the family to hang their favorites pictures on a family gallery wall
• Great stocking stuffer for teens

They’re also a great thing to keep on hand to give your favorite photo enthusiasts as gift-giving needs arise.

Photo Frame Decals

Equally as impressive are photo frame decals that make your photos look like giant Polaroid prints. You can even write on them because they have a dry-erase writable surface! Easy to apply to your walls (or cabinet, refrigerator, etc) and they don’t cause any damage. They hold 8×10 prints that are easily changed out when desired.

In addition to photos, they are good for showcasing children’s artwork.These are also found at Photojojo http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/instant-photo-frame-decals/
