This way you can display numerous pictures in one picture frame. It's a great invention and takes up no room at all, except for the frame itself. just get a simple frame and voila, minimalism with still having pictures of family displayed. it's a win win.

I strong recommend using www.MoreThanaMemoryScrapbooks.com. Very professional and the outcome is awesome and takes up very little space. I got the 8x8 size book. Please don't use the sticky pages with plastic covering... most aren't acid free and it will destroy your photos in time... thanks!

That's what I've used. It's a little bit out of date, but it gets the job done with no fuss. What about a plain photo album – the kind with the sticky pages and the plastic covering?

They are available at art stores (like Michaels): fabric covered boards with ribbon criss-crossing the surface. You can slip corners of photos under the ribbon, making it easy to swap out picture periodically so you can enjoy more of your pictures instead of letting them sit in a box somewhere. You can eliminate frames, and if they are on a flat surface, clear that surface. I have a memo boards in my bedroom and dining/living room. I can mix and match photos, create themes (like pics from a particular vacation or event). Great blog! I really enjoy your entries and ideas. I have been on the minimalist path for a couple of years now, and I love it. The hardest decisions are on items that were given out of love, but do not fit my life. I do struggle with that. Best of luck in your endeavor! I'll keep reading for on-going inspiration for my own. French memo boards!
