DIY Gallery Wall with vintage and thrifted items🖤

I looooove me a good gallery wall. The trick to making it interesting, is to add items to the wall, not just frames! I have antlers on there, an industrial piece, wood pieces, etc.

literally anything you like can be art. Just hang it on the wall. Boom. Art.

I’m going for a very English salon walk type look, so it’s crowded and on the darker and moodier side.

There’s a mix of family photos, photos with my partner, random art, and found items. The key is to make it feel collected.

SO TELL ME! Should I wrap onto the next wall?!

... Read moreCreating a DIY gallery wall is an exciting way to personalize your living space while showcasing your unique style. The trend of using vintage and thrifted items is particularly popular, as it not only adds character but also sustainability to your home décor. When designing your gallery wall, think outside the frame! Integrate various elements like vintage mirrors, ornate frames, and eclectic finds such as antlers or wood pieces. These items can be arranged creatively to give a layered, collected look that feels inviting. For a moody, salon-style atmosphere, consider using darker colors on your wall or opting for a mix of art pieces that vary in size and shape. Balance personal photographs with artistic pieces to create a visual narrative that reflects your life and experiences. Don’t forget the importance of spacing! Ensure that your items are spaced evenly for a cohesive look, and feel free to leave room for additional items in the future. If you're contemplating whether to wrap your gallery onto the adjacent wall, embrace spontaneity! Wrapping can lead to an expansive artistic expression that enhances the overall vibe of the room. Gallery walls are not only a conversation starter but also a reflection of your personality. Take your time to collect, mix, and match—it's all about making it your own!
