I would love to be able to pictures up on the wall, but making holes in the wall might cost the rent deposit when I eventually leave this place. I do have one poppy flower print hanging from a fixture...

Just matt them and use that yellow sticky tack stuff to hang them up. I believe they make hooks with sticky tack on the back of them that are supposedly strong enough to hold up light weight frames.

Just be sure not to make it one like Sy Parrish's, ok?

One day I tapped all mine up on the wall with no frame edge to edge and it looked really cool... although that was just a temporary thing for fun, I bet you could find a way to do it more permanently...

Going to find the photos... I'll be back!

Clip frames I think would work for a more permanent solution of this idea.

Here she is. I don't have a permanent one, I live in a matchbox and any free wall I have... (that one and one in the living room) that doesn't have Hendrix or Zeppelin or other random posters I use to shoot on.

In Issue 9, page 108 of JPG Magazine they give an example of one way to hang photos.

Oh I so want to do this in my house. I wonder if some of the masks are going to have to go to make room.

We have a couple of photo walls. When we painted our dining room orange, we had no idea what kind of art, Tom suggested my flowers so that's what we did. Very basic white mats and black frames (from Michaels). Total cost $22 per picture. We just basically did a stripe around the room two pictures high.



Upstairs we made a semi gallery - this time black mats and white frames (again from Michaels). All these are black and white or toned.

Nope - I never print any.
I shouldn't say never - I have, but they are still in the tubes from DPCPrints.

All that great work of yours and you don't SELL prints to folks?

I've been quite unwell for some time and earlier on this year I started THIS thread which resulted in this wall (which is still growing!)...



Probably not the sort of thing you are meaning at all but it's so cool to have so many of my DPC friends send photos of where they are...standing in front of it and reading the words etc makes me feel like I'm not alone!

I want to see more photo walls! I am collecting them in frames but have not started to hang them. Thousands and thousands of images and none on the walls. I cannot believe I have not started to hang. I have a couple of walls and my office is empty of photos. I have a R1800 and lots of frames laying around. I have no excuse. I would like to see more photo walls.
