Pictures of Dogs and Puppies - 5 Unique Ways to Display and Share Your Favorite Dog Breed Pictures
If you're a dog lover like me, you've probably taken dozens of
pictures of your beloved dogs or puppies.
And where are those cute dog pictures now? Are they stashed away
in a drawer or shoebox, gathering dust?
Don't let those adorable pictures of your dogs stay hidden away
and be forgotten! There are so many decorative ways that you can
display your favorite pictures of your dogs or puppies. Here are
five unique ideas to get you started:
1. Display your precious dog pictures as a collage under
glass! A coffee table with a glass top is a terrific spot
to display your cherished pictures of your dogs or puppies!
Remove the glass and layout the pictures on the tabletop, in
whatever theme you like. Think about the location of the table
and how guests will approach the table. Place the pictures of
the dogs or puppies in varying directions for a unique look!
When you're satisfied with the layout of the pictures, place the
glass top back over the photos.
2. Display your best-loved pictures of dogs or puppies using
CD cases! You can purchase CD cases at your local office
supply store. Be sure to use the standard size cases and not the
slim variety. Throw away the plastic insert that's included in
the case. Cut the dog pictures to the size of the CD case.
Attach a piece of cardboard to the back of each photo. Place the
dog photo inside the case and snap it securely shut. Now attach
the CD case to the wall with a strip of Velcro. Arrange the
cases in a 4 x 4 square pattern or place diagonally at different
angles. What's neat about this type of display is that you can
easily change the pictures of the dogs and puppies inside the
case as often as you like!
3. Display several of your favorite pictures of dogs or
puppies in a shadow box! A shadow box is a great way to
display larger dog-related items that won't fit in a standard
frame. Arrange the cute pictures of your puppies or dogs inside
the shadow box, then add some of your favorite dog mementos such
as his first ID tag, collar, or lock of hair. You could even add
one of his favorite dog biscuits or treats. Be creative and
display whatever treasured dog items would add the most meaning
to the shadow box!
4. Display your favorite pictures of dogs or puppies on a
velvet, satin or grosgrain ribbon! Cut a length of ribbon -
the size of the ribbon will depend upon the number of photos
that you choose to display. Arrange your favorite dog pictures
on the ribbon. Attach the pictures of your dogs or puppies with
one of those self-adhesive Velcro circles or squares. Now fill
in the open spaces of the ribbon with colorful beads, sparkly
glitter or some unusual buttons. Then, add a pretty bow at the
top of the ribbon for a finishing touch!
5. Display your most cherished dog picture in a mirror frame!
Take a piece of mirrored glass and cut it to fit a frame of
your choice. You can find mirrored glass at most stores that
sell window glass. Now, take a single-edge razor blade and
scrape away the mirror's black backing to create a 'window' of
clear glass for the picture of your dog to show through. The
'window' can be large or small, oval, heart-shaped, smooth or
rough around the edges. Tape the picture of your dog or puppy to
the back of the glass and place it in the frame.
These are just a few creative ways to display and share your
favorite pictures of dogs or puppies. Don't limit yourself to
the methods listed above. With a little thought and ingenuity,
you'll be able to think of some more exciting and distinctive
ways to show off those wonderful pictures of your dogs or
puppies!
