How Big is Big Enough??

Do you ever wonder how big you should go when you order a wall portrait? Most people don’t realize how small an 8×10 really is…

Recently my sister in law was looking to fill a space in her home above her fireplace… Well, we went big–how big? Pretty big! We actually did a custom size to fit her particular space, but basically it was right under 30×40 if I remember correctly.

I had her take a couple of pictures to show you the end result…



Could you imagine how tiny an 8×10 would have looked up there? 😉 The pic in the frame on the actual mantle is a 4×6 just to give you a comparison. So don’t be afraid to go BIG! Show everyone just how beautiful that family of yours is–don’t be shy about it!
