Bedroom Wall Ideas....what do you think? UPDATED
Well yesterday, CaMacho (Jess) inspired me to finish decorating my master bedroom. A couple of weeks ago you ladies had given me the idea of how to balance out the wall with my bed on it because it only has one window. So what do you think?
And the wall to the left is completely bare right now as well and it really needs something. What do you think of these two options?
#1
#2 (I already have a frame similar to this)
All the pictures will be of our wedding and honeymoon.
UPDATE:
I made some changes to the pics. The pic above the bed our from our Honeymoon. I would make these canvas pics. What do you think?

Re: Bedroom Wall Ideas....what do you think?
I love it!!!!!
On that side wall, I like both options. Since you already have the big frame, I would try that first. I'd love to see the pics when you're done.

Re: Bedroom Wall Ideas....what do you think?
I love it, you're really good in paint too! 
I like the first idea with the collage of pictures for the other wall, but since you already have some frames on your night stands and will have some over your bed i'm afraid it'll be too many frames. What about a canvas painting or two or three for that wall? Marimekko (you can get to it from the link I posted below) has some really cool canvas paintings that you get a kit and stretch it yourself and you get get one two or three panels.
I found this while searching for something else but they might look great over your bed: link

They have some great textiles at Ikea & canvases at Michael's that you can do yourself. All you need is a staple gun!
And staples

Thanks! Actually I used PowerPoint and then I put it all into Paint and make it a JPG file. There are more options in PowerPoint for me.
I think I like the first idea too better then the one framed collage of pics. You gave me an idea with the canvas pics over the bed. I could get two honeymoon pics printed on canvas - scenary pics from the HM. What do you think about that? Then the other wall can be wedding pics. So do you think that 6 frames is enough and not over kill for that wall? The whole wall is 13' long including the window on the left.

Love this idea!!! I think 6 of the right size would be perfect on that wall. You're totally giving me some great ideas for when we're ready to do our bedroom. I'll be needing lots of help with that (and all of the other rooms) soon! 
I really like the scenery idea for over the bed and then people pics from the wedding on that other wall.

The canvas over the bed and the framed wedding pics (maybe all in sepia?) on the other wall would look great.
It depends on the size of the frames you do. If you mix i'd stick with 8x10 and under and do around 6 of them.

Great job!  I like the first pic but I do like the idea of something bigger on the side wall. It's going to look great!

You think if the wedding pics are in color it would be too much color for the room with the canvases in color? So I'm thinking either B&W or sepia for all the wedding pics and I'd mix the frames on the other wall, 2-8x10, 2-5x7, 2-3x5 maybe.
Great ideas. Thanks!
