Creative Picture Frames & Holders

If you like to hang or display a lot of photos, you may be looking for some creative ways to frame them.  Even though the photos themselves are most likely extremely exciting, sometimes those rectangular frames are not quite what your decorative space is screaming for.  Creative picture frames can add that little extra zing you might be needing.

To display photos in an interesting way, all you have to do is think outside the box. Or, in this case, outside the frame. There are a lot of common items that can double as photo holders.

Hang A Photo With A Vintage Pants Hanger

Another real simple idea that I like to use for hanging photos on the wall is to use vintage wooden pants hangers.  This is another example of simply clipping a photo and hanging it.
