Have you ever wondered why double picture frames are found in just about every home? Well if you’ve never used a double picture frame you’re missing out on one of the most practical and versatile frames available. This article will share some of the benefits of double picture frames and give you some ideas of how you can use double picture frames in your home.

Here are just a few reasons why double frames are so popular:
1) they are more economical than the cost of buying two separate picture frames
2) they’re available in a wide range of styles, colors and finishes
3) they take up less space than two separate picture frames
4) they’re used for more than just displaying two separate photos

Many people get double frames because they have a set of pictures that they want displayed together and don’t want to take up the space with two separate frames. This space savings makes double frames a versatile choice for many compact spaces. If you have a shortage of space for displaying photos, a double hinged picture frame is a perfect solution.  With no easel back stand, a hinged picture frame stands on its own and folds easily for storage.

A double frame is really an ideal match for any two items that would look good displayed together. If you need some ideas, here are a few ways how you can use double picture frames.

Engagement Pictures

Double picture frames work wonderfully for displaying an engagement picture along with a engagement announcement or newspaper clipping. This allows you to display and protect the announcement while putting it next to the engagement photo. This makes a great engagement gift and gives the couple a nice keepsake to enjoy.

Anniversary Celebration

No matter what anniversary year is being celebrated, double frames are a perfect way to celebrate a marriage and the years together. You can place a current picture of the couple on one side and their wedding photo on the other to show the years they’ve celebrated together. If the anniversary is a milestone year, like the 25th or 50th, you can place an anniversary picture on one side and an invitation to an anniversary celebration or a newspaper clipping announcing your many years together on the other. An anniversary picture frame, whether a double or single frame, makes a wonderful reminder of the years together.

Graduation Photos

Double frames are a great way to share graduation photos. You can display a graduation portrait on one side and have the graduate receiving a diploma on the other side or have photo of the graduate with family members or friends. Capturing this big achievement in a double picture frame makes a great graudation gift and keepsake.

Pet Pictures

Double picture frames are an interesting way to display pictures of your pets. Whether you have just one pet or a bunch, a double picture frame is a great way to display your furry friends in any number of photo combinations.

Genealogy

With the popularity of people researching their family tree, double frames are a great way for displaying old family photos. There are so many ways to share old family pictures but double frames allow you to group relatives together in one frame.

Or, if you have photos of each grandparent separately, you can place a grand parent on each side. Double picture frames give you a great way to keep family trees together and allow you a simple way to connect generations in a single double frame.
