What Looks Best and What to Avoid When Using Round Picture Frames
Round picture frames add a unique style and shape to any picture frame collection. There are many different kinds of decorative round frames however, not every photo will look good in a round picture frame. Once you've read this article, you'll know what types of pictures to avoid and which ones look great in a round picture frame so your photos will always look good framed.
Round picture frames are an interesting way to display pictures, but unfortunately most people put the wrong type of photos in them. So, to help you avoid the pitfalls of using round frames, its best to start off with the types of photos to avoid using in round frames.
What You Should Avoid with Round Frames
Round picture frames are a great choice in certain circumstances, but there are times when you should avoid using a round frame. Here are the top two types of photos to avoid when displaying round picture frames:
1) Close Up Headshots: The round shape of the frame tends to make faces have a more full and round look. No one wants to look round or have a full looking face so never put a close up head-shot in a round frame. In almost every case it will be unflattering to the person in the picture so dont do it. The only case where up close pictures look good in round frames are pictures of babies.
However, this doesn't mean you can't have headshot photos displayed in round frames- you just need to be at a distance. If youre a good distance away, headshots look good but you should always be conscious to how the frame makes the persons face look.
2) Cropping the Photo Too Tight: When cropping your photo to fit in your round frame be careful to not crop the photo too tight to the subject in your picture. You want the subject in the photo to have some space around them so they never look like they're crammed inside the frame. Any photo you display in a round picture frame should have the subject evenly spaced in the center of the frame.
Remembering not to crop your pictures too tight and not to use close up shots are two important rules that are easy to follow. That leaves a huge selection of photos that you can display in round frames.
The Types of Photos You Should Use in Round Frames
There are lots of photos that will look great in a round frame. Round picture frames help add a unique look to your decor and your photo no matter if you display it by itself or as part of a wall display. Here are some ideas of what will look good in a round frame:
1) Landscape pictures are wonderfully suited for a round picture frame. Framing a landscape image in a round picture frame makes it look like youre looking through a small window at the beautiful scenery outside. Round frames are great to use with landscape pictures taken at a distance so it best fits the dimensions of the frame.
2) Pets are a favorite choice for round decorative picture frames. No matter if it's a picture of their head or their entire body, the compact size of most pets makes them a great candidate for a round picture frame.
3) Drawings, sketches, needlepoint or other artwork can be beautifully displayed in a round picture frame. If you're looking for a decorative way to display your favorite photo or small piece of artwork, consider using a round picture frame.
4) Baby pictures are an excellent choice for round picture frames. Round picture frames and the cute round shape of babies go great together. Just make sure to center your baby's picture properly within the baby frame for best results.
5) Think about more than just displaying photos. Photos and artwork are not the only items that look great in a round frame. Mirrors add depth and light to any room. Not only will you have a useful item on your wall, but it will add a beautiful stylish touch to your decor.
If you have never used a round picture frame, now is the time to try one. Now that you know what to avoid and what type of photo looks best in a round frame you will feel confident selecting a round picture frame that will add a stylish beauty to your home.
