I vowed to never have a TV above my mantle. Never. Ever. I am not a fan of how they look and I love being able to decorate my mantle with every season change.
But then it happened, I started seeing the most beautiful, drool-worthy artwork above mantles on Instagram. I fell in love with just how pretty the artwork was. Low and behold, it wasn’t just artwork! The artwork was actually a tv I was seeing above people’s fireplaces. Woah!
So yes, I caved! We now have a Samsung Frame TV above our mantle–check out why I love it so much!
It’s absolutely unrecognizable as a tv- it sets flush to the wall, looks just like a piece of art, you can easily change the frame (use a different colored bezel –I have the beige, it’s a natural wood color) and the art!
Artwork is available in the art store for a monthly fee, but I like to upload my own art.
How to add photos or art to the Samsung Frame TV
- First you need to edit your art or photo to 3840 x 2160px (You can use a free program like Canva, PicMonkey, the Adobe App on your phone or even the free app called Image Size that’s super simple to use)
- If you haven’t already, download the SmartThings App (free) and connect your Samsung Frame TV.
- From the app, select “art mode” and add your photos/artwork.
- Select “no mat”.
- Hit “set”.
- Your art will now be on your TV!

I’m still getting a white matte around all my photos even when I resize to what you’ve said. Suggestions
When you upload the photo to the SmartThings app on your phone, is the “no mat” option available? (Like I show in the video at 3:50 time mark?)
How do you avoid having your tv storage fill up when you add your own images. I added 4 of my own images and the storage was too full to add another . I have read to that even deleting them doesn’t clear the memory space because it saves the cache history.
