Finally:0)
Using “Destiny’s Method of Randomness” I muscled through this one and got my gallery wall up and finished! I don’t know how many hours I spent pondering bout how I should arrange this wall, what photos to display, what objects to put where. Up until yesterday it was one big headache. So I finally just went with it. My poor wall got so nailed up:0)
Here is the wall before…
then happily ever after…
Patience is not my best character trait( ha) and perfection seems to be impossible to reach:0) So I didn’t cut out pretty little templates. Even if I did, I think I would have edited just as much. So to start off this wall I laid out a beginning format on the floor and nailed as I went. If your going to be lazy like me and use this method, make sure you have a small tube of nail hole filler and a paint pen:0) lol. It really wasn’t that bad:0)
Here’s a little photo tour…
Lyrics to OUR song:0)
This print was something I typed up and printed along with a shadow box and prints of the kiddos:0)
Family photos galore:0)
This print is from Coco Draws an Etsy shop, I thought the boots were so adorable! I adore her stuff and can’t wait to use some more drawing in my closet!!
This hanging basket with the fern plant is from Tuesday Morning.
I used my silhouette machine to cut out an Arizona silhouette..a play on the I Heart State art that’s out there.
I used different woods and tried to repeat it at least once across the scheme so it would flow. Remember those barn wood frames! I love them!
So happy to get this DONE!! Moving on to the next project this weekend!! Oh and I’m pretty sure I found some chairs for this space!!! So excited!
Great job!! I love all the personal touches you added.
I love gallery walls I’m having issues getting the spacing just right on mine. It’s sorta annoying. 🙂
Great gallery! I love it. Love the wordings.
If not busy, please come and drop by in my blog, http://scrapidoodlelicious.blogspot.com/
I love this! I think this may be one of the best gallery walls that I’ve seen for two reasons – one, it’s not just photos. There’s other stuff up there breaking it up. Two, there’s no obvious pattern to how you placed things. You see a lot of tutorials showing you how to do it with a baseline down the middle, or symmetrically, but this doesn’t scream “this was sketched out on graph paper” like some of those do. It’s random, but balanced. Love it!
Finally, I love the idea of your song lyrics on the clear glass. I may have to steal that! 🙂
Thank you for posting the link, Destiny! Aww, I love seeing my print up on your wall! It looks perfect. Art walls can be tricky but you did yours beautifully! I love how you mixed the different texture and color frames and the awesome black and white family photos. Lovely family you have. 🙂
Love it! The mix of different types of frames, yum!
It looks GREAT! You did an awesome job!
The fern idea is lovely. Im going to do it!
Do you know how many children I have? Four. Do you know how many photos I have of them in my home? NONE. Only their newborn photos. It makes me so sad, but I just don’t know where to start. LOL 🙂
Gorgeous gallery wall! That verse from Tamia’s song is nice as wall art! I want to make a gallery wall so thanks for the sharing and inspiring!
I linked here from the HandMade Home and I can’t stop looking! I love everything! 🙂
I did notice, and you probably have too by now, that HAPPILY is spelled wrong in your shadow box? I am a spelling freak, it’s a disease, truly! 🙂
