Make a Memory Wall

You've heard us say it before: We've framed just about everything. One of the most meaningful ideas we work with is to frame a collection. Collections have impact, but the best part is the story they tell. They're true conversation starters.

Plus, putting something three dimensional on your wall is a bit unexpected. It goes outside the boundaries of traditional artwork to give depth to your focal points. And a collection can be made of almost anything! They can go well beyond postcards, baseball cards and stamps. Here are a few ideas of interesting collections that we hope will inspire you to display some memories of your own....


Vintage Button Pins - arrange them in the shape of an initial or a heart.

This idea would work well for buttons or stamps, too.

Frame a Vintage Bathing Suit or other piece of clothing from your family's past.
A Christening Gown or a Boy Scout Uniform make a lovely memory.
