Postcard Vintage

what can i do with some vintage movie postcards?

I've brought 11 vintage style movie postcards and don't know what to do with them. I'm working on a indie based room with lots of framed vinyls and pictures on the wall.. my room will be very movie music and movie based as this is what i am in to. any cool original ideas with what to do with the post cards? andy any ideas for a cool indie teen room.

Im a 14 year old boy indie, but not of the skinny jean type :)

a prompt response would be much appreciated :D x

- i am into black and white photography too (my room will proberbley be a grey colourscheme if this helps) cheers guys and please help me towards an epic room :D

I would buy some inexpensive post-card sized frames in either plain black or perhaps silver. It would be easy enough to frame them yourself and the frames can be bought at any craft store for maybe $5-$6 each. What is also interesting is to go to flea markets, thrift stores, jumble sales, etc., and pick up some interesting frames, regardless of size. You can spray paint them. Attach the postcards directly to your wall with some double-stick tape or even some of that peel-and-stick Velcro stuff to give it a more 3-d effect, then hang the frame around them. Let some of the wall color show around the postcard and the frame. I think that would look great.

Hope I've given you some ideas to stir your ideas. Sounds like you're pretty creative on your own.
