Captured in an instant, preserved for a lifetime and stored in — shoeboxes? Isn't it time for your photographic memories to come out of the boxes? Country Home magazine's Carol Sheehan has some ideas for displaying those precious moments captured on film.

  • Forego the frames and create a photo garland using a hole punch and ribbon.

  • Purchase wooden plaques at a craft store, affix color photo copies to the back and display in a plate stand.

  • Enlarge favorite photos to create photo cylinders inside glass containers.

  • Color copy baby photos in various tints, cut out and attach to a frame.

  • Surround an entire room with a chair rail ribbon held in place by carpet tacks.

  • Turn a table into a photo focal point for an anniversary or birthday celebration by placing old snapshots on the table and covering with a sheer fabric overlay.
