I finally did it.
If you read my post, Creating Your Own Gallery Wall, you may remember that I have been collecting pieces to create my own art gallery-inspired wall. I recently had a few things reframed and yesterday I decided that they have been languishing up in a spare closet for too long. So I got out my hammer and nails and got to work.
I’m really happy with the results. It’s just a mix of things that make me happy … travel and nature inspired, Venice, Paris, a vintage postcard here, an old map there, a childhood sketch of mine …
It didn’t even take all that long … I roughly laid them out on the floor in the layout I wanted, hung the two largest pieces first then played around with the rest.
I see this wall right when I step out of my bedroom in the morning and now it makes me smile.
It can also be seen from our main living area as you look up the staircase.
