How to Arrange a Gallery Wall Like a Pro
A good way to create a focal point in your living room is to craft a gallery wall. One that is well done makes a home look inviting and helps tie the room together. This creative collage does require a bit of planning! The following guide will help you to create a stunning gallery wall you'll love to look at in your home.
- Choose Your Display Items
Start by choosing the artwork you want to put up. Ideally, you will have photos in digital form so you can print them in the size that will fit the frames that you have. If you wish, you can choose a theme. For instance, you can put up photos of your last vacation or family event so your gallery always shows your family events. You can also add sign walls that relate to the artwork you are putting up. For example, signs with phrases like love, family, blessings, and others. You can also get customized signs such as those with your family name. - Select Your Frames
The frames you will put your artwork in are just as important as the artwork. Try to stick to one or two styles rather than a mix that will make the wall look cluttered or clumsy. Mixing up the sizes is ideal and makes the display more visually appealing. - Decide Where Your Gallery Wall Will Be
This is typically in the entryway of your home. It may also be a wall in your living room or along the stairway. If you will choose your living room, ensure the artwork will not be too close to other visual distractions. - Plan Your Layout
You don't want to place your pieces on the wall haphazardly. Rather, you want to do with a plan that will create the precise look that you want. The space you have will largely determine this. Your imagination is your limit here. You can start with the largest frame in the middle, perhaps a photo or painting that has everyone in the family in it. Surround these with others on occasions like graduations, birthdays, or the latest event or vacation. If your display is located on a staircase wall, you can put the eldest at the top and finish with the youngest at the bottom. The possibilities are endless. It is advisable to do a trial run by putting marks on the wall and hanging up the frames to get an idea of what the final look will be.
