I’ve received products from Framebridge for this post. All opinions of the gorgeous products are 100% my own.
Hi friends, if you follow me on Instagram you may have noticed my constant talk about some blank walls we have around the house and how I want to fill them up. I hope you are not tired of hearing about them yet because I’m about to talk about them AGAIN!! Anyway, since we moved here, I’ve not done much with the walls at all. I have a few photos of the kids and a couple decorative pieces on the walls but that’s about it. Moving does that to you. ‘You’ take all your stuff down from your previous home and they sit around in boxes in your new home until you eventually figure out where to put them. Or you get rid of the ones that do not really speak to your family but you’ve being holding on to them just to have something. Well, I have experienced both and either way, I am not one to love all blank walls like that in our home. I don’t necessarily want clutter and I don’t have to have every single inch filled up, but I do want to have things around the home that make it pretty and things that are meaningful and reflect our family. With this in mind, I’ve already been purchasing some pieces to create focal and statement walls around the house but it’s definitely taking a while in between busy. My two latest addition to the collection and by far my personal favorites are these two framed family photos from Framebridge. I mean, just have a look – aren’t they so beautiful? They make such a great addition to our home!!
You can frame two ways by either uploading a digital image to their site or by mailing in a physical piece and they will do all the rest including custom framing. It’s that easy!! You can frame: photos, artwork, kids art, kids clothing, INSTAGRAM photos, just about anything worth framing!! You can even just snap a photo of anything in you like (say flowers for example) and upload it to the site for framing!! I actually could not decide what to frame because when I popped on over to Framebridge, I just about wanted to frame everything!!! For real! At first, I wanted to frame my kids art work and choose their Rosemont Rose gold metallic frames. After much back and forth in my mind, I decided go to with some Family photos.
For mail-in orders, they will even send you a prepaid mailer to ensure your stuff is mailed to them safely. I’d like to add that the custom frames are not just any kind of flimsy frames you’ll have to replace quickly. They are sturdy and beautiful and built to suit any image you want them to frame. You”ll also be able to choose from a variety of styles of frames and choose the size of the print, too. Note: Keep in mind that the higher the quality of a photo image the bigger the frame could be. In addition, you can chose your style and color of mat – accent or floating. Give it all to Framebridge and they will do the work for you!! And did I mention how fast they will ship your orders? It’s like within 5 days, you’ll have your perfectly printed out Framed masterpiece! No more random ordering and wondering when your stuff will arrive!!
When our packages arrived at the door, we couldn’t be more excited! And by we, I mean me and two kids who were home when Fedex rang the door bell. I was actually kind of surprised that they arrived so fast being I had just ordered them the very same week. What is Fedex delivering? Did my husband order something? Imagine my surprise when I saw it was from Framebridge! Didn’t I order these like 3 days ago? I thought they were going to take at least a week!! Either way, we were just as eager to open them as we were to receive them!! Both framed pieces were very well packaged and all in one piece. The kids were very happy to see us all in the photos even though I had to ensure they didn’t break the frames. See their excitement for yourself!!!
When I ordered the frames, my intent was to put them in our bedroom right over our bed. But I spotted two already nails on this blank wall and decided to test them out to see how they look on the walls. We all were ‘wowed’ with the the look so I left them there to see my hubby’s and other kid’s reaction when they came home from work and school. It’s the first thing they noticed and were both just as excited as everybody else. These framed family photos really do make a statement in this room and the quality is top notch!! If you are wondering about the sizes, they are both 17″ x 11.33″ with the final frame size being 24.25″ x 18.58″.
They are some of our favorites. We usually take family photos at home during the winter months since all our babies are winter babies (photographer comes to our house). It’s not always easy to get all the kids to corporate for photos. But in this shoot, we brought it outside. The kids were all corporating (for the most part, the baby might haven gotten a bit tired) but even our second daughter (at 3 yrs) was just a happy go-lucky one. Something that she was not in our previous family photo shoot. Maybe it was the fact that she understood taking pictures more or maybe it was because we were outside. I’m not sure. But that face and the little walk of hers in this photo always get me. It’s like she was saying “let’s do this”!!
Not only is the quality of these customized pieces a beauty, but I chose the Mandalay Bamboo frames in gold (they have them in black too) on purpose. I mean, why wouldn’t I? You know, being an island girl and all, that gold bamboo spoke to me. I had to try it – I’d never had a bamboo frame before!! This makes it a bit more meaningful and reflective of our blended family. The gold itself is stunning and really makes the photos pop!!
If you are looking for a great place to add some custom framing to your home or to gift to someone, don’t hesitate to try Framebridge. Are you still needing to get mom a gift for Mother’s day? Why not frame something she loves? Maybe it’s a photo of her favorite perfume or flower or decorative piece, or favorite photo of her grandkids, or anything she loves. You can choose her favorite style and color of frames that she will love. You won’t be disappointed with the outcome and neither will she! You can still have it framed and shipped to you before Mother’s day if you use the upload feature right away.
Here is a bonus for you: you’ll save 15% of your order by using the code zan15 at checkout. So hop on over to Framebrige and let them do it all for you and make mom happy with a favorite customized piece of art.
What do you think about these customized framed pieces? Have you ordered from Famebridge before? I’d love to know your thoughts.
This is such a cute idea! I love that it’s a way for the whole family to participate in Mother’s Day–because what we really want to teach our kids is to honor their mothers with time instead of just gifts. Love it 🙂
Yes, I agree! So glad you love this idea! And what mom does not love a beautifully framed family photo? Thank you so much Jamie!!
I LOVE both photos and the way you styled them in your home! You go, girl – looks awesome! You have such a beautiful family and I have some photos that need to be framed and I need to check out Framebridge.
Awww, thank you so much Alli! I got to say, Framebridge did not disappoint! You will definitely love them!!
What beautiful frames! I love photo gifts!
Thank you Allison! I love the idea of gifting them too!!
That is such a great idea! I love both of them; they turned out really great!

Didn’t they? I was kind of surprised at how well they turned out. The glare on the wall makes the ones on the wall look a bit blur but as you can see, the close-ups are nothing shy of awesome!
I love those frames and your kids are adorable!!
Thank you Alexandria for your compliment on both!! They bring smiles to our family!!
Those frames are so pretty and look great in that space! Yay for adding things to the empty walls!
Haha, thank you Shannon! The frames are definitely a favorite and the walls will “thank” me too!!
Love those frames — so pretty! And your family photos are gorgeous, Zan. 🙂
