BELATED BIRTHDAY GIFTS

well n finally finished j's birthday present and it hangs on the wall as i type ... not bad 4 months late but i guess better late than never ... pictures frames were found at ikea (of course they were ... is there any other place that mass produces copious amounts of frames for a reasonable price ... couldn't find that place here ... so ikea it is)

anyone who knows me knows i love to be organized and plan and plan and plan ... so i decided to take pictures of the different layouts of the pictures and then have j decide which one he liked best by scrolling through the pictures rather than have him come every 2 minutes and look because he was busy building and i didn't want to pester him in the midst of important building things

so here are the different layouts (some are nice others not so much)

layout #1

not bad some balance from top to bottom

layout #2

alternating patterns always seem to work

layout #3

again alternating but the 1 at the top might seem too small in the space

layout #4

for me it works i just think it would need a few more pics to give it a balanced look

layout #5

thick and chunky ... might work

layout #6

knew i would hate this but just wanted a pic anyways

layout #7

no no no no no and again no

can you guess which one j picked?

keep guessing

we have a winner ... layout #2

yeah it's the same one i liked

now that space on the wall no longer haunts me

cheers ~n
