Beauty and Function Meet in Magnetic Picture Frames
When you think about magnets, you might imagine cheap, little plastic, souvenirs placed on a refrigerator. Well, think again, because magnets have come a long way. From colorful, personalized magnetic picture frames, to clever marketing tools, to the perfect way to display favorite family photos, magnets now have many everyday uses.
Once upon a time, magnets were uniform, thick, disc shaped things that served to sandwich the item to be displayed, maybe a photo, or a grocery list to a metal object often a kitchen appliance. They had zero aesthetic appeal, your eyes were drawn, not to the magnet, but to whatever was placed beneath it.  Thanks to digital technology, magnets are now available in every size and shape, large, small, square, and oval, to name a few. The magnet itself can often be as thin as a piece of card stock. But the most incredible thing about the modern magnet, is how beautiful it can be, especially when it is framing a favorite photo.
For a fraction of the effort of matting, and framing a picture in the traditional way, a personalized, digital frame can be used, with beautiful results. And photos can be interchanged in one of these frames much more easily than in a traditional frame. Personalizing your frame with a name or date can make it even more special. Smaller versions can be given as gifts to commemorate an occasion like a wedding or graduation. To display your photos, you need only a metal surface. Any kitchen appliance will do, as well as lockers, metal door frames, or a suitable surface in your car or office.
Business owners will find that magnetic picture frames are effective marketing and advertising tools. A frame with a company logo, address, phone number and website can take the place of a business card that will likely sit at the bottom of a drawer.
Who would ever imagine that the simple magnet could evolve into a beautiful part of your home decor, an essential piece of your business, and a great way to display, share and enjoy some of your favorite memories for years to come?
