Shadow Box Frames - The Fun Way to Protect Your Keepsakes

Do you have a special keepsake or souvenir that you want to share with others and keep protected? Then, a shadow box picture frame is the perfect framing solution.

Shadow box frames allow you to create a unique and personal display of your keepsakes. Imagine your pictures from birthdays, school memories, graduations or any other special event being displayed with special keepsakes in a shadow box frame. A child’s accomplishments, like a sports photo along with medals or other sports items make a wonderful shadow box display. Shadow box frames can be placed on a table top surface or hung on a wall for an eye catching display.

Shadow box frames come in a wide variety of colors, shapes, sizes and depths to accommodate almost anything you want to display. They come in a variety of standard colors like white, walnut, blue, green, red and basic black colored frames. A standard ready made shadow box can be found in either a rectangular or square frame shape with depths ranging from ½” to 1 ¾”. You can also have a shadow box frame custom made if you want a unique shape or depth (up to 7" deep). Custom shadow box frames can be made to hold sports jerseys, collector plates, flags, sports memorabilia and just about anything else.

Shadow box frames let you display and keep your photos and unique keepsakes protected from damage. There are many items that are great for displaying in a shadow box frame. All you need is a little bit of creativity and you'll find lots of ideas for using shadow boxes. Here are a few ideas you can do with using a ready made shadow box frame:

1. Post major news events that touched your life. Maybe you or a family member had their achievement headlined in the newspaper. You could display the news clipping in a shadow box, along with any other tokens of that achievement. 2. Do you have a precious collection that stays hidden away in a box? No matter what you collect, you can show them off in a shadow box frame while keeping them clean and protected. This could be a collection of political pins, letter openers, spoons or just about any other small collectible. 3. Are you proud of your flower garden? Save those gorgeous blooms by drying them and placing them in a shadow box frame for all to enjoy. Enjoy your garden indoors with a dried flower display that will blend with any decor. 4. You can proudly frame athletic accomplishments whether they're your awards or your kids. Ribbons and medals should not be hidden away in a box, but should be proudly displayed, even if the display is just for your own enjoyment and satisfaction. 5. Are you an ocean lover or beachcomber? You can display all of your beautiful sea shells you collected over the years. A shadow box display of your shell collection will bring a smile to your face when you think back to all your special trips to the ocean. 6. Have you collected sports memorabilia from a specific team or event? Show your team spirit with a shadow box frame display. How about a musical event, show or concert you went to? If you collected items from a favorite musician, protect them and display these fun keepsakes in a shadow box frame.

A shadow box frame is a great way to display and protect any photos and keepsakes that are important to you. If it is special enough for you to save and collect it, don't hide it away. Display your memories and mementos so you can be happily reminded of those special times every time you see your shadow box frame.
