They arrived, beautiful and vibrant, exactly what I wanted. I had 30 perfect squares to work with, and now had to decide what to do with them. I decided that for the first craft, I would do the traditional picture wall, a sweet piece of decor for the previously boring and blank space above my desk.
1. Wall Art
I initially chose to do two rows of seven. It was both fun and challenging to choose photographs which would go nicely together, but I think I managed. Once I'd finished picking out the photos for other crafts, I went back and stuck up more. Now that I'm finished school, I understand why university students often have photo collages on their dormitory walls; it's so nice to be able to look up and relive some of my fondest memories, and to see the faces of my dear friends.
2. Journal Page
I have rather a small journal, but these photos still fit nicely! Having your journal
3. Decorate your Folders, Binders and Notebooks

Do you like getting photos printed?

I've always preferred printed photographs over digital ones. Memories feels more real that way and it feels more sentimental and important.
ReplyDeleteI love getting photos printed! I wish I remembered to do it more often ... I like to tack them up in my office space and frame them in my room - mostly pictures of people who are important to me so I feel like I'm always surrounded by the ones I love :)
ReplyDeleteI enjoy having physical copies of photos too. I love all the things you did with yours.
ReplyDeleteI printed my pictures from a vacation once and loved the concept of just scrapbooking everything. Wall art is definitely my favorite - especially when you have a lot of rows and columns! That's something I'd definitely do, but probably with a frame, so the pictures don't warp over time @__@.

Thank you so much Skye :)
ReplyDeleteYes! It's so nice to feel like you're with people you love, in spirit if nothing else! x
ReplyDeleteI totally agree!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good suggestion! A frame would definitely be a great way to preserve them better. x

ReplyDeleteI love the idea of creating wall art with your pictures. It'll be so cool to print them out and then use different sized frames to create a gallery wall of some sort. xx

I feel like I got photos printed more often when film photography was around. These days it's easy to forget to get photos printed because I carry them with me on my phone. I have an instax mini, but sometimes I wish I could get my photos printed in a different format for journaling and such. I like how you decorated your journal page with a picture from your travels :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Sheene!
ReplyDeleteThank you Demilade! A gallery wall is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThank you Audrey, I think I'll have to agree with you there. :)
