And it is a home, not a display. I love them, in my house and in other people's homes. My DH always complains that I have too many photo's of the kids, and well we may have to cull a few when we move, but we will still be having some.

In all of my interiors magazines when they visit and do shots of peoples homes they always have some family pics on walls. Its a home not an art gallery. You can do some pretty fantastic things with kids photos.

Hanging them haphazardly all over the wall in a big no no! To make them look really stylish all the frames should match.
