Multiples always have more
impact than a single item.
Fill three or four frames
with a series of similar
images and lean (don’t
hang) them on the
mantelshelf. Because they
won’t overpower the art or
each other, simple white
frames with white mats are
a good choice. The only
potential pitfall is using too-
small frames, so make sure
yours are at least one-third
the height of the chimney
breast (ours are 18X24). Try
displaying multiple maps,
black-and-white photos,
kids’ drawings—anything
goes as long as they share
the same colors and theme.
