The Fabulous Design File: Personalized posters
"My favourite budget-friendly decor tip is to have one of your own photos blown up into a poster-sized piece of art. I have a 3' x 5' photo of my kids above my fireplace that was printed at a local print shop for about $60. It is unique, dramatic, personal, and affordable!" -- Carissa Erickson
