Add texture with original items (fabric, clocks, monograms, etc…).



I created this collage on polyvore and I’m pretty sure I like the placement of the art. Here’s a sneak peak at some of the items I’ll be using in my gallery wall. So, I thought Minted was the perfect place to start. I have lots’s of monograms and other interesting items, but I didn’t have much “artwork” in our home. I loved the variety of artwork on Minted and the fact that I could shop by category like “limited addition”, “Typography”, “Photography” etc… I could also see the size of the image and what my frame choice would look like on my art work before I committed to it. I needed to add a few pieces to my collection so I used Minted to find just what I was looking for. I’ve gathered some new pieces of art from Minted and mixed in some of my old favorite items I already owned for my gallery wall. Once you have your images, input the sizes of each piece of art on to see how they might look together, how large a space you need and whether you need to change, add to or rearrange some pieces. If you’re going for a more modern look, you can use all the same size, shape and colors for your frames. Clocks monograms, signs and mirrors will all work well with artwork. You want to have a mix of sizes and colors, as well as different textures.Īdd some different items to your wall to make it interesting. But, you’ll achieve a more “collected look” if you take your time and let it evolve with pieces you really love. The first place to start is by collecting the artwork that you would like to group together. – I use polyvore to mach sure the colors are visual pleasing.– I use icovia to enter the measurements of my art work, then move the pieces around for placement.So, you’ll need these two websites to help you with placement – So, no matter what your personality, to create a gallery wall, you have to figure out placement of your art work. Figuring out WHERE to put things is sometimes harder than figuring out WHAT to put on your wall. It’s like spilling your personality all over a wall in your home. A gallery wall always gives you a little inside scoop about who lives in the home. Whether is a modern home, country, traditional, or somewhere in between. I’ve always love the look of a wall filled with artwork.
