10 Ways to Display Your Photos in Style
—Fasten (use 3 long thin nails) a 1/4 x 1.5-3 inch x up to 8-foot piece of wood (lattice or molding) horizontally to the wall and clip, tack or tape the photos onto it, for a horizontal mass display.
—Lean a 3/4 x 2.5-3 inch x up to 8-foot piece of wood against the wall, fasten the top end to the wall with a long thin nail, and pin or tack the photos onto it, for a vertical mass display.
—Mount photos onto foam core art board using low-tack tape, face it with clear plastic (from a plastics shop), and hang it on the wall using thin nails or 2-sided foam tape on back
—Use plastic box frames, available at AC Moores or other hobby shops, for a frameless look.
—Pin your photos to a cheap umbrella, saw off the handle, then hang the umbrella on the wall from its edge.
—Make a simple easel from “1×2” (3/4×1.5) and a few bolts, mount your photos onto a piece of foam core art board and stand it up on the easel.
—Cut foam core art board to fit the inset area of cabinet doors, then mount your photos on it (a plastic covering is recommended).
—Roll a large photo copy into a cylinder and slip it into a glass column vase for display. If you still want to use it as a vase, insert a plastic jar with the water in it.
—Paint an old wooden ladder, lean it against the wall, and stand your (framed) photos on the steps.
—Place your photos under a clear plastic (from a plastics shop) piece the size of your coffee table or desk.
