How to do a gallery wall

I love the look of gallery walls. It's a great way to display your favorite pictures, art, and other things in a way that looks artistic, intentional, and complete. My sister Adrienne just did a really cute one at her house and sent over her pictures. 

The best way to do a gallery wall is to lay it out on the ground first.  This way, you can move it around until you get it the way you want it without putting any holes in the wall. 

If you really doubt your skills on actually hanging it, you can get a piece of butcher paper, newspaper, or card board and trace around the items. Use this as a pattern to tape on the wall and mark where the holes go with a thumb tac. 

So cute, right? Good job, Adrienne!  I have also done a gallery wall recently. 

Frames don't necessarily need pictures to look good. Especially these great vintage frames that are artwork in and of themselves. You can also use larger frames to go around smaller ones. This makes all these different pieces look like one collection. 

For a more formal look, use all black and whites or sepia tones. You can also do a very modern look using the same method with sleek black frames and black and wite photographs. 

Have fun putting together your gallery wall!
