The thicker the standout the better, but also more expensive. It's a much much cheaper alternative to canvas. But canvas is sooo worth it. For good quality, and pretty cheap standouts, use mpix.com The *one* thing I caution against cheap canvas wraps- the actual part where it wraps around the wooden frame came make or break a nice looking canvas print. The cheaper it is, the more likely the ink will flake/rub off or the canvas won't be wrapped as nicely and will look off. Fine for a canvas print if your just going to swap it in a year. But if you want anything to last longer(like for your wedding photos) consider it. I HEART the wall gallery. You can do standouts, which are prints mounted onto foamcore or matboard.

I also wanted to know more about how you did such an awesome matte and frame, I didn't believe it at first because it looks so cool! Today I saw some enlargements printed straight on foam board that actually looked really good, maybe a cheaper alternative to the canvas. I love the canvas idea!

That huge canvas above your bed is TDF!! amazing! and the photo walls are gorgeous too. so much eye candy and inspiration! I would love to build a wall photo gallery, thanks for sharing these beautiful ideas and examples. I'm working on putting all of my photos (well most of them) into a photobook. I'm going with blurb because I can print lots of pages for a great economical price. Some of the pages are posted on my blog here: http://www.paisleepress.blogspot.com/ and like everyone else here, I'd love to know where to print canvases for $4!! wow! wow Janet!!!

That looks so real, I can't stop looking at it. I love it, and totally want to do that now!!! I also love that hallway. I would love to do that on my stairwell.... now I'm itching to frame stuff!

I love clustering them together on our tree every year. Then, I take a picture of them on the tree and marvel at how many I have already.
