What You Should Know About Collage Picture Frames Before You Buy One
If you have a lot of pictures that you want to display but not enough picture frames or wall space to display them you should consider using collage picture frames. Collage picture frames are a versatile and economical way to display a variety of photos all in one frame. With multiple size openings, you can organize and beautifully display different sized photos without having to buy a bunch of individual picture frames.
With collage picture frames, there are primarily two types of collage frames:
1. Matted collage picture frames
2. Standard collage picture frames
Each type comes in an assortment of sizes, shapes, and colors and has its own unique benefits. But in order to choose the right collage frame every time, you should understand the difference between matted collage frames and standard collage frames.
Matted Collage Frames
Matted picture frames are much more versatile than standard collage picture frames. They come with Picture Frame mats that have multiple photo openings in varying sizes and shapes. These matted collage frames offer a more casual look and allow you to easily display a wide variety of photo sizes and shapes in one frame. Mats also give you the option to completely change your photo layout simply by changing to a different mat.
Normally, mats and collage frames come together as a set however you can buy them separately if you want. This gives you the freedom to select any large picture frame you like and a mat with the color and different openings you want. With a matted collage frame you have the option to create your own look and be able to display whatever pictures shapes and sizes you want.
One thing to remember with matted collage frames is that your pictures will need to be secured. There are several ways to do this however, linen tape or photo corners are your best choices for securing pictures you don’t want damaged. If you aren’t concerned about your photos being damaged then use you can use a matte or transparent adhesive tape like 3M’s scotch tape to secure them.
Standard Collage Frames
Standard collage picture frames on the other hand, have a more decorative and formal look because they have a metal or wood frame acting as the photo divider. These frames have a framed opening for each photo making it a good choice for a more formal home or office display. Standard collage picture frames are available in either one large frame with multiple framed openings or as a group of smaller frames attached to one another.
They come in a wide selection of sizes and can be used as wall picture frames or can be displayed on a Table Top surface. With standard collage picture frames, the photo openings are fixed so you can’t change the shape or size of the openings like a matted collage frame.
Collage frames are really the best way to display a lot of photos for the best price. And, if you’re looking for a unique gift a collage frame filled with pictures from a memorable event makes a treasured gift. So for a fun and inexpensive way to share your favorite memories, try using a collage frame and you’ll be happy you did.
