Creative ways to display photos of your sleeping babe.

Let's face it- newborns sleep a LOT. And new parents photograph them a LOT.

It can get boring for everyone who's subjected to those photographs.

Mary shared this awesome idea from Mila's Daydreams on her blog this week and I think it's so clever!

It's such a great way to keep the photographs interesting and fun even if the babe is always snoozing.

What other ideas do you have for keeping photos fresh and exciting?
