Collage Frames - Why These Frames Are So Popular

Hello visitor! Thank you for taking the time to read this article.


Do you have dozens of pictures you want to display but don't want to have a frame for each of them? Then you should try collage picture frames. Collage frames are one of the most economical ways to frame a lot of pictures. They have multiple openings so you can fit a variety of different sized photos all in one frame. With collage picture frames you have an organized and beautiful way to display all of your favorite pictures.

There are basically two different types of collage frames: matted collage frames and standard collage frames. Both of these come in many different sizes, colors and shapes so you'll always find one you want. Before you start shopping for a photo collage frame, you should first know the difference between these two types of frames.

Matted Collage Frames: Matted collage frames have a mat that can display multiple individual photos in a variety of shapes and sizes. They are popular because they are generally less expensive and are more versatile than their standard collage counterpart. Matted collage frames have a more casual look and provide you the opportunity to change your pictures over time with little effort. Mats also give you the flexibility to change entire photo layouts by switching out mats for a new configuration if you want a different combination of photo shapes and sizes.

Most of the time collage frames and mats are purchased as a set, but you also have the freedom to choose the right combination you want. You do this by creating your own matted collage frame. All you do is select a frame you like and a mat with the types of photo sizes and shapes you want and put them together yourself.

One thing that is unique about some collage frames (like matted collage frames) is that you have to secure the pictures to the mat. You can secure the pictures using either tape or photo corners. For pictures that you don't want damaged, use linen tape or photo corners to secure the pictures. If you can replace your pictures by merely printing out new ones, use a matte or transparent adhesive tape like 3M's scotch tape.

Standard Collage Frames: The second kind of collage frame is the standard collage frame. These collage frames have framed openings for each picture giving it a more decorative look that's great for homes or offices. You can find collage frames as a group of smaller frames stuck together or one large frame with multiple framed openings. With framed openings, you generally don't have to worry about securing the pictures since they sit in a framed opening.

These standard photo collage frames come in a wide variety of sizes so unlike matted frames, you can easily find one of these to sit on a desk or nightstand. The only downside of these frames is that the photo openings are fixed so there is no flexibility to adjust the size or shape in the future.

No matter what kind of collage frame you like, they are terrific frames to display a family event or vacation. Collage photo frames also make terrific gifts and are commonly used for framing multiple portraits and fun candid photos. So if you love taking photos, you should seriously consider using collage frames as you'll be able to display more pictures for less money and leave your home beautifully decorated with memories.
