The only rule when it comes to selecting the right prints for your frames, is to let your creativity shine! We recommend using a combination of photographs and prints in different style frames, including both size and colour, to make your gallery wall stand out.
Tip: Unsure where to source photographs?
Unsplash is a great source of beautiful photographs, gifted by the world’s most generous community of photographers.
Step 2 – Perfecting your layout

Once you are satisfied with your unique configuration, it’s time to start hanging!
Tip: Take a photograph of your frames on the floor
Be sure to take a photograph of your frame configuration, which can be later referred to when hanging.
Step 3 – Hanging your frames
