You love those precious photos that captured your baby when they were just minutes or days old.
But what will you DO with them? Canvases? Prints? Maybe something more….unique?
You can use most of these ideas practically anywhere in your home. No reason to limit those photos to the nursery!
1. The sleek and modern wall collage
Easily transitioned as the baby gets older, keep the modern look by using large mats and thin frames.

2. Whimsical and eclectic collage.
A fun way to incorporate other wall art, pops of color, and even combine canvases and framed prints

3. One large canvas
This is a great way to make a big statement with a favorite image. I especially love this look with a detail shot such as a close up of hands or lips. Size definitely does matter in this case and the bigger the better. At a minimum you'd want a 20x30.

4. Hanging
So fun! This is an inexpensive and creative way to display a few smaller prints. Great for a woodland themed nursery! You could also hand from a clothesline, or a wire for modern look.

5. Photo mobile
This one uses embroidery hoops for a unique diy approach to the classic mobile.

6. Large framed collage
This look would be great way to show the story of your birth from beginning to end! Yes, you can display your birth photos too!!!
