Instant photos are charming. There's something about a camera popping out a blank sheet of film and watching the image develop before your eyes that conjures feelings of nostalgia for another era.

Although these types of photos seem like a thing of the past—especially with smartphones—there are devices today that have allowed instant photos to thrive. The Polaroid Original and Fujifilm Instax Mini are two popular ways to capture analog images.

But once you've got a collection of pictures, what do you do with them? That's where DIY  and creative frames come in handy. Take your best images from your adventures and creatively display them to brighten up your space. Scroll down for some “instant” inspiration for displaying your favorite photos.
