So you just received your online gallery from your recent photo session, loved the images, and purchased prints. Now you want to display them to add all the warm and cozy feels to your home. But how do you display them? Finding ways to incorporate our beloved images can often be quite challenging. There are TONS of different ways you can show off all the happy moments of you and your family. I've created a list of 15 fun, creative and elegant ideas to get you started!

Clothespins are a super simple way to get your photos on your walls quick! Use colored or patterned ribbon to grab attention or match your walls. Try hemp or jute for a natural or Bohemian vibe. Add fairy lights for a warm, inviting glow. Hang them vertical, horizontal or inside a frame.

These shelves are long and sleek with just enough height on the edges so your photos won't slide off. Go with shelves that compliment your décor - black, white, or wood stained. Mix and match your frames if fun and edgy is your style. Opt for something more monochromatic - all black, all white, or all wooden frames - for a more elegant look.

Wall grids are an easy way to make a statement. Consider the amount of space you wish to fill and choose from square or rectangular frames.. large frames or small. Think about adding frames with mats to really make your photos pop. For a more Instagram feel choose small square frames without mats. The symmetry this creates is a timeless look that will never go out of style. Make them wide, make them tall or heck - fill up the entire wall!

A mini art gallery right in your home! Just add your favorite photos along with whatever speaks to you. Wall sculptures, mirrors, and plants are perfect to fill that empty space you've been staring at. When creating your gallery wall keep a theme in mind and stick with it - rustic, modern, eclectic, vintage, etc.

Wall collages are similar to a gallery wall since you'll still be considering a theme and sticking with it. It's always helpful to start with your largest frame first and work your way down. Be sure to lay them out on the floor before you start hanging. Hang them diagonal, in a cloud shape or you may even overlap them for a mural look. Whatever you choose, your collage is sure to bring visual excitement to any room!

Add some extra love to your walls with a heart collage! Stick to the same frames so your image doesn't get lost. Group them close together or space them out depending on the shape of your heart and amount of wall space you wish to cover. Think about adding quotes in a frame or two that describe your family and home.

There are so many possibilities when it comes to hanging frames in your home. Use knobs that coincide with your current décor - old, vintage glass doorknobs, metallic knobs, or mix and match with different shapes. Experiment with chains (gold, iron, metal), ribbons, wire and rope. Hang them at different lengths or group them together for a collage effect.

Window panes have become so popular in farmhouse style décor. Natural, unpainted wood adds a rustic feel or choose to paint your frame for a pop of color. The great thing about window panes is they come in so many different sizes. Hang one large window to display a collage, a small 4 pane window in the foyer, or group several together for a stunning statement piece.

Work a metal display into your space for a sleek, modern or industrial look. Metal photo rails work great for a larger space, grids are perfect for the office and stacking round frames give the illusion your artwork is floating. A metal display is sure to make any space feel like your very own art installation.

Another popular trend among farmhouse décor are wood planks. Layer canvas on top with metal tabs to hold your artwork. Wood frames placed on top feel rustic and elegant. These are such an easy and inexpensive DIY project you can do at home and is sure to make any space feel extra cozy.

Photo rails are a new obsession of mine and I hope to integrate one into our home soon! These are a great alternative to display your family photos without damaging your walls with holes. Use thin molding about a foot or two below your ceiling and attach hooks to hang your photos. Change up your style with rope, chains, and different frames. These rails make switching out your artwork and theme soo easy!

Modern, sleek, simplistic and elegant. A black and white photo wall can really transform any space. Stick with black or white frames if you want a monochromatic look. Metallic frames are so fun and elegant. Ad mats to separate your photos from the frame and really make them pop!

So simple and pleasing to the eye, a staircase display is perfect for any home. Try black and white with a pop of color for a modern vibe. Go symmetrical with the same frame size and style. Make it eclectic with frames of different shapes, textures, sizes and colors. The great thing about placing them organically is you have the option to grow your wall over time.

Say goodbye to awkward corners and nooks and say hello to a beautiful new aesthetic! Turn a boring corner into a full art display. Make sure it's cohesive and that dark space you used to avoid is now a warm inviting space to enjoy.

Ditch the frames and order large canvas prints. Showcase your photos in a small collage or take up the entire wall. Either way they're classic, beautiful and the perfect way to display and cherish family memories.

I hope these 15 ideas inspired you to get started on that empty space in your home. Take the leap after your next gallery purchase and make your walls the center of attention!
