Now that we actually have some finished walls, I can actually start thinking about what to put on them! I love the life-sized prints that Tom&nbsp;highlighted in a blog post on the Olympics. That idea would make great wallpaper for an accent wall. I also like the &#8220;Wall of Art project&#8221; included as one of \u201cPaige\u2019s Projects\u201d in the Kodak project section with Paige Davis of Trading Spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Like Jenny and some of my other fellow Kodak bloggers, I too have been enjoying capturing panoramic pictures using the auto-stitch panoramic mode of my Kodak camera. Such panoramic pictures would also make great wall art. This post contains a few pictures from a recent trip to Hawaii \u2013 both panoramic and non-panoramic \u2013 that I am considering using as wall art in my home.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/staciehibino.org\/core\/images\/kodakBlog\/2008_12_5_waves.jpg?w=400\" alt=\"Big Waves\"  data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><br \/>\n<em>Big Waves on the Big Island<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/staciehibino.org\/core\/images\/kodakBlog\/2008_12_1_volcano.jpg?w=720\" alt=\"Volcano National Park\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><em>Hiking at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staciehibino.org\/core\/images\/kodakBlog\/2008_12_3_waipioValley.jpg?w=720\" alt=\"Waipi'o Valley\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><em>Waipi&#8217;o Valley<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staciehibino.org\/core\/images\/kodakBlog\/2008_12_4_sunset.jpg?w=720\" alt=\"Sunset at Anaeho'omalu Bay\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><em>Sunset at Anaeho&#8217;omalu Bay<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There are several reasons why I love the idea of hanging poster-sized prints of my photos on the walls at home. Here are just a few of the reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Leverage those megapixels.<\/strong> 8- and 10- megapixel cameras are now very common and affordable. You don\u2019t need a professional camera to create large prints \u2013 you just need a camera with enough megapixels for the size print that you\u2019d like to make. You can use any picture captured from a point-and-shoot digital camera to create a nice poster-sized print, as long as it has enough megapixels. This means that it\u2019s easy to fill your walls with everything from everyday photos to special moments and beautiful places.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Big pictures = big impact.<\/strong> Precious facial expressions, that perfect sunset, special celebrations and those once in a lifetime vacations \u2013 we all have those favorite photos that really make us smile. They look great in a 4&#215;6 print or when viewed on a computer or digital frame. Show them off in big style on the wall and there\u2019s nothing to say but \u201cwow!\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>My pictures are my stories.<\/strong> I think the thing I like the best about hanging poster-sized prints of my own pictures on the wall is that each picture tells a story. I\u2019m not just hanging \u201cpretty photos\u201d \u2013 I\u2019m surrounding myself and my family with memories and stories!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>What about you?
