Beautify Your Home by Decorating with Picture Frames
I've always said decorating is an art form. Nothing decorates your home like art, especially pictures adorned in beautiful custom picture frames. However, it isn't as simple as picking out any picture frames and hanging them up. Choosing the right frame and picture framing supplies greatly increases the overall look of the picture itself and works to complement the feel of the entire room.
A framed piece of art is built around of several components. Obviously, there is the art, the frame, the pre cut mat board, the external surface placed over the art work to protect it, mount board, and everything that comes in
picture framing kits. Of all these, the picture frames are the most important and the most straightforward, being manufactured in either wood or metal and installation is a snap with picture framing kits.
Hanging those pieces of art or even an everyday picture can be a real challenge. The first thing you need to do is know that there are two parts to the picture frame hanging process. There is the mounting hardware on the frame itself, and then mounting the frame on the wall. My advice is purchase picture framing kits. They make life much easier.
There are a number of different options to choose from for picture framing supplies. The one you go with depends upon several variables, such as the size and weight of the picture, the material of the frame, and the surface you wish to hang the picture on.
The pre cut mat board is used for primarily for two reasons. Firstly, it serves as a support for the picture frames, preventing them from getting damaged through bending and folding. It also creates a layer of separation layer between the picture and the glazing so that nothing is directly in contact with it. The majority of framed art pieces come with a single mat layer and a mount board as part of a picture framing kits. You can choose to use double, even triple mat layers.
When it comes to picking out a color for the mat, I recommend going with more neutral color, such as your whites, creams, ivories, sandstones, pearls, grays and blacks. I like neutral colors since they tend to enhance and guide the attention to the picture. Neutral colors can easily fit into any room, as well, with never a worry about them seeming out of place.
Above all, remember to have fun and enjoy yourself when decorating. There is no point in doing if you aren't enjoying it. In my opinion, decorating your home with custom picture frames is one of the easiest ways to beautify your home in a warm and personal manner.
