Art work, paintings, family photographs, etc. used for wall decorations, if not properly framed, can spoil the beauty of the house instead. Keep these things in mind when choosing frames for paintings, photos, mirrors, etc.

Furniture

How are the furniture, molding, door frame, window frame and floor molding in the room where you want to frame the photo or artwork? With this in mind, select the frame.

Colour

When choosing the color of the frame, keep in mind the color of the walls of your room. If you want, you can select multicolor frame for any single color or for dramatic effect. Always choose a color frame that is highlighted on the wall, otherwise the beauty of your painting / artwork will not be visible.

Different Look

If you already have artworks framed in different styles, then you can do a little experiment for a different look. Paint all frames with one color. This will change the look of your paintings / artwork without spending much money.

Style

When choosing a frame, also keep in mind the home decor style, such as – if your home decor is contemporary, ornate gilded style molding is best for artwork. In such a magnificent molding, your painting will emerge and attract the attention of the guests who have come home. While choosing a heavy frame, keep in mind that it does not suppress the beauty of the artwork.

Beautiful beauty

Always choose a frame that enhances the beauty of your paintings / artwork / photos etc. rather than looking big in size. If you are unable to understand which frame will be perfect for your photo / painting, then you can go to the art gallery or framing shop near you and take the advice from the shopkeeper.

The series

If you have a series of paintings or artwork, select the same molding style and frame for them. This will make them look connected to each other.

Right light

Also keep in mind the light of the room while choosing the frame. In some rooms, the natural light is reduced due to which they look dark. Gilded or golden touch frames would be best for artwork in such a room, because they are reflective of light. So that both the artwork and the room will look beautiful.

Smart tips

* Avoid trendy style in the frame.

Like other decor accessories, when choosing a frame, instead of keeping in mind the current trend, choose a style that lasts for the next 5-6 years.

* Always use good quality frames.

* There is no need to change the frame every year. So you can spend a little more for it

* Antique and wooden frames are best for old photos, while polished wood, plastic, shiny metal and chrome frames work is the best option for contemporary prints and modern photographs.

By making collages of your family photos or children’s photos, you can increase the beauty of the walls of the drawing room or bed room by plating them into beautiful frames. Apart from this, a mirror decorated in an attractive and luxurious frame also adds to the beauty of your home.
