Picture perfect
When asked what you’d rescue from a burning house, most people would say their photographs. Being a treasured reminder of the good times in life, photographs are one of the most important things we own. So why not display your favourites on the wall?
Play around with different frame sizes and colours and create a feature wall for all of your favourite snaps and artwork. Try different photo finishes, such as sepia and black and white to vary the look.
I love how a polaroid-sized picture has been mounted with a large border- it really makes it stand out, giving the image a sense of importance.
These illustrations would look fantastic in my office- I may put some of my own up for inspiration.
For something a little different, there’s no rule to say pictures must hang on the wall. Try resting the frames on shelving for a contemporary look.
Have you created something similar in your home? Send-in some photographs and we’ll feature you on the blog!

Inspirational Interiors: The Beige and the Bold
Former Domino magazine editor Tori Mellott took-on the challenge of redecorating her teeny tiny apartment… and what a great job she has done! In small spaces, functionality is key, where every nook and cranny must be used to its full potential.
The striped wallpaper emphasises the beautiful high ceilings
Black, brown and beige look really stylish together, giving a classy feel
“It’s counterintuitive, but having one or two oversize pieces can fool the eye by making the rest of the furniture seem smaller,” Tori explains.
Don’t be afraid to use bold pattern in small spaces. If in doubt, stick to having just one feature wall and opt for lighter colours.
Plenty of natural light keeps this small appartment light and airy. A change in flooring helps to separate the different room areas.
