Seriously! Remember my thread about the photo arrangement? Well I got it all figured out and then looked at it some more and decided that my wall is going to be too small and that it would look too cluttered with all the frames on it... Here's my thread:
https://the-lilypad.com/forums/showthread.php?19088-I-need-input-on-photo-arrangement...
So I decided that I can do this arrangement over our bed in our bedroom. I have lots of wall space there and I think it will look great. But now I have to figure out something else for that wall in my living room. I was going to do canvases but everything I try will not work. You see, my photographer cropped all the pics to 4x6's and this means that enlarging a tightly cropped photo to an 8x10 makes for cut off heads which is furstrating me so I need to enlarge to 8x12. Well do you think I can find decently priced frames in that size anywhere??? I don't have too many options. Unless of course I pay an arm and a leg. So I came across a few gallery frames that I'm willing to fork over the money for but I can't for the life of me figure out a configuration. Here are the frames:
12x18 frames (8x12 photo)
(10x17 frame with 4x6 photos)
(8x10 frame with 5x7 photo)
(I think this frame measures 12x12):
I really don't want my wall to look too cluttered but I also want to display a few photos. I was really set on 2 of the 12x18's (8x12 photo, on placed landscape and the other portrait) but not sure if I will be able to pull it off. My wall is 59.5 inches wide... I think I may be looking at it too hard and I need a fresh pair of eyes. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great.
