Frame it up
Ah, the art of framing. I love seeing all of the photos across the interweb of interestingly framed art. To me, framing is more than just choosing something to surround art. It's about finding a good placement and arrangement as well. In my own home, I like to use lots of different techniques (seen here, here, and here).
Some of the arrangement styles I've found inspiring on flicker: sitting low, gorgeous antique frames in a modern space, off centered, a grouping of the same yet different thing (love those antique mirrors!), all in a row, propped up on furniture, and lots of large art covering the whole wall. How do you hang your art?
Eclecticly. (Is that even a word?!) It definately describes how my sister and I hang art, though. Lots of different frames, lots of different styles – all together. She’s an artist as well so we have canvases and such mixed in.
One wall in our living room just has a whole bunch of different sized, different styled frames we painted white and stuck up. There’s nothing in the frames, but it looks super interesting. Always a conversation piece, atleast.

Such a work of art! Want to have designs like these in my condo. The last photo also made me smile. Having frames around the house will make it a lot more different.
