How to Make a Wall Collage of Photographs in Your Room

Using cherished photographs to decorate your bedroom walls will give the space a personal touch. You can use wedding, family vacation, school or any other types of photos to create an eye-catching wall collage. Making a wall collage is simple way to add interest to a plain room as it will become the focal point. If you're short on wall space, get creative by using a collage in place of a bed headboard.

Instructions

- 1
  Choose photographs to use in the collage. Pick images around a theme, such as beach vacation, holidays or birthday parties as one idea. Use random black and white and color photos as another option.
- 2
  Place the selected photos into frames. Pick frames that feature one common element, such as color, shape or size, to create a cohesive look. Choose all square or all black frames, for example.
- 3
  Arrange the photo collage on the floor or a table before hanging the frames to see how it will look when on the wall.
- 4
  Hammer nails into wall at the points where the frames will hang. Use a tape measure to create the same, precise distances between each frame if you desire. Use a carpentry level to ensure that the nails are even.
