Displaying Family Photos

I printed copies of family photos from .jpg files.  The nice thing about using a copy is that you can print it to fit the size of the available photo frames.  The photos can be displayed and enjoyed without worrying about light or other damage.  The photo ledges (http://www.exposuresonline.com/) were added to an entrance wall and the photos can be rearranged if you want to add more or change without being concerned about holes in your wall.  The ledges are hung 12 to 13 inches apart and start about 28 inches from the floor.

Photographs

Photo holders are available in many styles.  I purchased this one in the shape of a sunflower at a local store (about $10).  I then printed photographs of my parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents on my desktop printer.  I scaled the photographs to the size I desired, then printed and trimmed for insertion in the photo holder.  I made two of these--one for my brother and one for my sister--displaying four generations of my family. 

NOTE: I use PrintMaster 18.1 (not to be confused with PrintMaster 2011) software, which is a desktop publishing program.  I find PrintMaster 18 to be a very user friendly program and limited only by your imagination.
