Welcoming a newborn into your family is a joyous occasion, and capturing those precious early moments with professional newborn portraits is a great way to preserve those memories for a lifetime. But once you have those beautiful portraits, how do you display them in your home? Here are three creative ways to showcase your newborn portraits on the walls of your home.

The Statement Piece

A large framed or canvas print is an excellent way to showcase your newborn’s portrait. A single favorite framed image on display will create a stunning work of art. A canvas print is also an excellent way to make a statement on a blank wall. Choose a location that is visible to all and where the portrait can be admired. You can also experiment with different sizes and shapes of canvases to create a unique look that suits your space.

A Gallery Wall

A gallery wall is a great way to display multiple portraits of your newborn and family. Choose a wall in your home and arrange a variety of framed portraits in a collage-style arrangement. You can mix and match different sizes and orientations of frames to create a dynamic display. Choose frames in a similar style or color to create a cohesive look, or mix and match frames for a more eclectic feel. You can even mix frames and canvas pieces! When creating your gallery wall, consider adding other meaningful items such as your newborn’s birth announcement, numbers or letters.

A Picture Ledge

Picture ledges, or floating shelves, are a unique way to display your newborn portraits. This option allows you to create a mini-gallery of sorts, where you can display portraits alongside other meaningful items such as books or decorative objects. Choose a wall in your home and install a set of floating shelves. Then, place framed portraits of your newborn on the shelves alongside other meaningful items. Floating shelves come in a variety of sizes and styles, so you can choose the perfect option to fit your home decor. Having portraits on a shelf is also an easy way to rotate pictures and change the display.
