Thanks for all your great ideas about my wall collage. In order to fill those frames and take advantage of a $1.99 flat rate shipping sale at Scrapbookpictures.com (that ends Aug 31st), I decided to go ahead and order some prints! Including that $1.99 shipping sale and a 15 prints free promo code (which saved me $3.75), I got all nine 12 x 12 prints for only $12.10 -- shipped. Can't beat that.

I went with photographs of the kids playing outside. No special, fantastic, clever theme, just pictures of them having fun outside. And I'm *sure* I'll want to change them at some point in the future. But for now, I think this will do just fine.

That den/playroom project is *slowly* taking form...we finally got our toy cabinet fiasco taken care of (which involved re-cutting shelves, reordering doors, and lots of un-needed stress.) They are now assembed, with shelves and doors. Yay! The toys can finally be put away! Only took a month... Oh, but there are still a few more things to take care of before the "after" photos... coming soon...I hope!

Hey There,
I love your photo wall! Did you use special glass for the frames and where did you get your 12x12 frames?
Thank you,
Lezlee

Hi Andrea,

Great choice of photos for your photo wall. You can't beat a photo wall for brightening up a room. For anyone who is thinking of creating their own these 7 "things to consider" maybe useful, especially to anyone who is going to be creating a photowall for the first time.

I hope it is helpful

I love the pictures you picked. The 12x12 size are a great size to fill a large space and too get some great shots of the kiddos. What a fun wall and perfect for the playroom. I can't believe what a steal you got on the photos - awsome.
