Every now and then I surprise myself and take a photo, or a series of photos that I’m incredibly proud of. And this is one of those times. Or rather, this is five and a half years after one of those times.
Since our holiday in Cornwall back in 2014 (yes, really) I’ve been thinking about framing one of the pictures from our holiday, but never got around to doing it anything about it. I haven’t even got as far as sharing the pictures here either. Sometimes that happens.
So when Photowall got in touch I spied the push into action I needed. And I think it’s turned out rather well.
The thing is, I even knew where the picture would go. On the gallery wall in the study-come-craft-room, which after a strong start was stalling. It’s a wall that I’ve been keen on creating for a while, and my plan to use black frames to unify the small space was working well. Of course, me being me and our house being our house, it wasn’t quite that straightforward. The gallery wall is actually on a sloping wall, which means adding some additional fixtures to the frame, so the top and bottom are attached to the wall.
MOH is used to this now, and I like to think enjoys the challenge! Or that’s what I tell myself anyway.
And it did turn out really well.
In fact the whole process was super easy. From uploading my picture on the Photowall site, choosing the size and cropping the image to work properly. My image was actually a colour image, and I converted it to black and white on the site too - it looks so much more dramatic doesn’t it?
My biggest dilemma was which size to choose - this is 50cm x 40cm - and the site guides you through creating your masterpiece, and if you’re not after framing one of your own masterpieces then there’s plenty of wall murals or wallpapers to choose from too.
It was quick to arrive too, the order was with me within a couple of days. If only I’d know that after our holiday in 2014, I could have been enjoying my picture on the wall for much, much longer already.
