In progress: antique and thrifted wall decor

2025/1/19 Edited to

... Read moreGallery walls are a popular trend for personalizing home spaces, and they are easy to create with thrifted or antique finds. When selecting items for your wall, consider mixing various textures and colors, allowing for a dynamic and visually appealing display. Think about incorporating photos, framed art, and eclectic accessories like mirrors or sculptures. Thrift stores can be treasure troves for unique items that add character. It’s not just about filling a wall; it’s about telling a story through the items you choose. Additionally, understanding the principles of layout can elevate your wall decor. Start by laying out your pieces on the floor to visualize the arrangement before committing. Creating a cohesive look often means choosing a color scheme or a specific theme. Don't shy away from using unexpected shapes or sizes, as diversity can create depth. Also, consider varying the spacing between items to create a relaxed and casual vibe. Embrace imperfections of thrifted items as they bring charm and character that new pieces simply can’t replicate. Finally, showcase your personality through your choices. Whether you prefer a rustic vibe or a more modern aesthetic, your gallery wall should reflect your style. Engage your creativity, and have fun curating a space that feels uniquely yours!

Mostly Thrifted Toddler Room... so far
As a mostly SAHM (I work two days a week PT), I am on a mission to create the coziest home possible while on a very tight budget. We recently decided to transition our 20 month old daughter from her crib to a toddler bed, and of course, I took that as a sign that we should start with her room!

Just a little homage to my favorite cozy place. I love nostalgic children’s illustration styles so much, but when it comes to my own best, I go vintage and antique all the way. There are some genuine antiques and family heirlooms on this wall and I love it. Still so much influence on my work though

Things in my house that are thrifted
My go to place for home decor is the thrift store! I feel fulfilled when I buy something secondhand rather than buying new! I would the majority of my house is either DIYed or thrifted & I love being able to tell people the story behind each project rather than saying I got it from Target.
