I have a wall of pictures. I want to take them all down. Some of the pictures are really old and can be replaced with newer ones. What can I do with the pictures? All the frames are old but still doable with TLC. I'd like to do something with the frames. I need ideas!

    How many pictures on one wall? As many as it takes to make a pleasing display, but almost always in odd numbers. What to do with old photos? Dust them, make digital copies of them (with your phone is fine), put them on iCloud or some other storage system, offer the old photos to relatives, a library or a social studies teacher, toss the rest. You won't ever get around to that many albums. What to do with the old frames? At least dust them. Unless you really are a DIYer, give them away to charity. If you want frame projects, just search on Hometalk.com and Pinterest for THOUSANDS of ideas. Best wishes 😇

    Are they photos? Create an album or book for them, maybe include the story around the pictures, or a memory about the person or place

    You can make a grouping of different size pictures/frames into art or just create a grouping for the wall... It's better than one picture here, an other one over here all spread out. Dried flowers look good in otherwise ugly, boring frame.

    Grouping them together on the floor helps you plan the spacing between pics and what looks good. As previously stated, odd numbers are best for groups of objects and flower arrangements as well.

    Create a story(gallery wall) with the pictures..
