Our best memories bring us joy and comfort, reminding us of people we love or places that are special to us. Some memories even remind us of who we want to be, and what dreams we want to be chasing. At Portfolio Picture Framers, we're in the business of preserving memories. We've seen first hand how meaningful it can be to preserve important memories and display them proudly.
In this guide, we'll walk you through how to preserve memories through framing, and why it's worth doing.
There are so many reasons to frame your most special memories. Whether it's a family photograph, a well earned degree or a precious travel souvenir, a frame will keep your memory safe while making sure you can see and enjoy it everyday.
Here are some great reasons to preserve your memories in a frame:
What memories do you want to preserve? We've helped customers frame everything from old family photos and family portraits to holiday snaps, graduation certificates and pet memorials. It's not just photos that can be preserved in a frame. If you've got three dimensional items such as holiday souvenirs, a wedding bouquet or military memorabilia, a shadow box frame could be the perfect way to preserve them.

Items that have sentimental value need to be protected. For valuable or precious items, we highly recommend a custom frame from a professional framing studio. Not only will your framed items look better, but they'll also be getting the maximum protection possible.
Custom photo frames offer protection in a number of ways:

For the best protection, we recommend displaying your framed memories out of direct sunlight and away from fluorescent lights as these can cause damage and fading over time. Larger frames look great as statement pieces, such as above a mantlepiece or over your bed head. Smaller frames tend to look best in smaller nooks, or even on bookshelves. If you have a lot of memories that you want to display together, consider creating a gallery wall.
At the end of the day, it's best to choose a location where you can get maximum enjoyment from your framed memories. Hang them in your hallway so you can see them whenever you come home. Place them by your bedside so that you can look at them each night. Or make them an eye-catching feature in your living room.
