However, finding the perfect ways to incorporate a photo display into an interior sometimes can be challenging.

Color schemes, art pieces, and overall atmosphere must be considered correctly, not to mention the images themselves.

You will find many ways to decorate your walls, especially if you want to showcase framed or frameless memorable photos of your weddings, graduations or family travels.

With so many photo wall ideas to explore, here I am sharing some of the most stylish photo displays that will turn drab walls into conversation starters. 

1. Use a Mix of Photos, Art, and Objects

When it comes to arranging family pictures on the wall,  a fun mix of paintings, photos, and objects can be an attractive way.

As you can see in the above picture, this mix-up of different things on the white empty walls of this room appears appealing.

You can also include an assortment of small, large, and medium-sized family picture wall frames in black, white, and gold colors.

2. Create a Yearly Family Gallery Wall

You can use family pictures each year to create a photo wall in your living area. You can also keep all the frames white, in various sizes, or the same sizes as in the above image. This photo display will give a very calming yet stylish look. 

3. Be Creative with Kitchen Walls

You don’t need to be limited to living rooms for family photo displays. We know that our home is incomplete without a kitchen, so why not put some reminders of your loved ones in the kitchen?

Decorate some family photos on the wall of the kitchen or in the dining area so that when your family sits together to have dinner, they also have something to laugh, cherish, and remember.

4. Hang Family Photos Above Seating

Create a gallery wall of family photos right above a bench in your entryway or mudroom. Keep the colors neutral with simple white or black frames and black-and-white images.

Also, you can add a few lights that will bring attention to the photos when the room is a little dark. 

5. Wrap Images Around the TV

It is also worth experiencing with the area around your TV.

It does not have to be boring, simply select a few favorite family photos, and choose your frames they could be white, black, golden, or any color, and let them frame your TV.

This way, everyone will take notice of your cherished moments, even when they are watching their favorite show.

6. Curate a Theme

You can also create a theme with a lovely art collection and family photos. You can curate it for the kids' rooms as well as for the living room or a guest room.

But I would recommend you make this pretty theme family photo display in the key areas of your home so it can be admired by others. 

7. Cover the Wall With Instax Photos

In the list of family photo display ideas, this one is a little different. Instead of going with a few family photos with frames, bring attention to an entire wall in your space by creating “wallpaper” with Instax photos.

You can design 11×17 images with nine Instax wide-sized photos per sheet. After printing and trimming the sheets, you can paste them to the wall with a staple gun or you can also use tape. 

8. Display Oversized Family Photos

Another stylish way to organize your family photo displays is just to use an oversized photo. For this, you don’t need to worry about coordinating frames and different styles.

The only thing you need is one or two large family photos.

Now you may be wondering how could that possibly look stylish with just an oversized photo. Well, check out the above given example and that may just change your mind.

9. Family Photos in Gold Frames

If you don’t want to go with black and white frames and want to try something out of the box, choosing gold frames can be a good choice for you.

You can fill the entire wall between the doors with family photographs with bright colors and gold frames. The golden frames will make it feel super stylish. 

10. Staircase Family Photo Displays 

Pick your favorite family photos and create a gallery up your stairs! Choose natural frames that pair perfectly with the colors of the photos, this will look appealing to everyone who visits your home.

Using a collection of photos of your family members all taken in the same place creates a cohesive color story going up the stairs.

It does not matter what type of family photo display you choose from this list, it's sure to be a cherished addition to your home. So get creative and have fun with it! Your family will love seeing their faces displayed with love and care.
