Notice Cole's contribution to our decor....
Now I'm stalled because I know I have a large box of black frames back in Syracuse so I don't want to BUY more.
Anyway-- I'm super excited because I see good things are happening. Next steps.
Step 1: Get black frames from Syracuse (quite possibly happening in 2 weeks)
Step 2: Find photos to go in black frames. (I have been working on this already because I can size them to fit the frames when I decide what frames to use)
Step 3: Frame photos in said black frames (can't wait to get to this step!)
Step 4: Hang framed photographs
If necessary add "filler" pieces to photo wall as well.
Here are a few inspiration walls that I'm looking at.

And these from Young House Love: I probably should have used this "template" trick, but I got too excited. I guess we'll see what happens once I get the rest of my frames together...
Template(s) above. Final frame layout below.
I'll keep you posted on my progress because I know you're all on the edge of your seats. :)

I LOVE your coffee filter wreath! When we build our dream house, I'd like one to build my photo wall around!!! Do you sell them?
PS. When I saw your wreath at your sister's house, I just loved it! In addition to wanting one for my future home, I think they'd also make incredible house-warming gifts and wedding gifts! Soooooo cool!!!!!

Thanks Audrey! I LOVE It too :) I haven't necessarily thought about selling them, but if you decide you really want one, we can certainly talk!
I have a photo wall up my staircase, and I use frames I find offered on freecycle.org, at goodwill, wherever, and just use the free paint samples they offer to paint them all black! I even painted the walls up the stairs white to be a better backdrop ;) We loove our memories wall!
