Get ideas to frame a photo for Mother’s Day

An 8" x 10" frame works well to showcase this intimate black-and-white photo.

Many photos, especially those capturing important milestones and special moments, benefit from a larger, more professional-looking format such as 8" x 10". However, while numerous photo frames are 8" x 10", this is not a common photo paper size.

Find out how you can use standard 8.5" x 11" paper to print your own 8" x 10" photos:

• Option 1: Select 8.5" x 11" as the Paper Size in your printer dialog box, and then choose 8" x 10" as your Photo Size. This will center your photo on the paper, leaving four sides to trim.
• Option 2: If your printer dialogue box offers it, select 8" x 10" as your Paper Size. Your printer will function as if it's printing on 8" x 10" paper and your photo will print up against the paper's edges, leaving only two edges to trim

Keep the following in mind when choosing a frame for your Mother’s Day photo:

• Simple combinations, such as metal, black, or plain wood frames with neutral-colored mats, are often the best choice because they won’t take focus away from the photo.
