Nice. BUT...that bass looks terrible hanging on the wall like that. I think you should do yourself a favor and sell it to me to spare yourself from any further embarrassment. ;-)

Nice!  I like the way the black frames pop against the red walls.  I opted to turn mine into a mini movie theater since I had so many movie posters to put up.  Some day I'll build a separate room for the music stuff.

Yeah I've re-arranged mine several times. Currently I have a "Yankees Legends Wall", "Blink 182 Walls", "Pacers Wall", "Dodgers" Wall, and a bit of a random baseball wall... LOL. I love the hanging lights on yours.

Great looking set up guys. My problem is I keep getting new things but don't spend the time and money to frame and display them properly.

I get all my frames at Michaels, they ALWAYS have a 40% off deal. Then I get custom mattes made at Hobby Lobby, who ALWAYS has a 40% coupon. I literally bring a piece in there, pick a matte color, and the person cuts it immediately (and recommends what size frame you'll need). The mattes are like $7 with the coupon. Then based off of their frame size recommendation, I go to Michael's and scoop a nice frame for usually $20ish after the sales.

Very easy, done in an hour, at a very cheap price compared to what it would cost if you have these places frame it for you. (I'm sorry but $150+ for a frame job is insane...)

Most of the basic black frames with the white matte I have are $9.99 at Michael's, or $6 after the coupon... Here's some examples of stuff I've done recently:

Framing/presentation is part of the fun for me. Once you figure out how easy/affordable it is by doing it yourself, I suspect you may feel the same way. If you have any questions LMK.
