Gallery Wall Inspiration

Thinking about doing up a wall in your home and in need of some gallery wall inspiration?

Well, look no further cause I have some here for you my friend!

Gallery walls really are not a new thing. But leave it to Pinterest to make an old thing new.

Remember back in the day going to grandma, big momma, or even auntie's house and when you walked into the living room she had all the pictures of all of the kids, grandkids, their artwork, and what seemed like everything that they had ever been given by anyone they loved?

Yea, that was a gallery wall….

But now in all our modernness, we have redone an old thing and made it new using all kinds of color, texture, and themes. And I JUST LOVE IT!

I have been working on a few different ones in my own home and I often times take to pinterest to get ideas and get help thinking about how I want it to look and feel.

And y'all know I love sharing the goods, so I have it here for you.

Simple and classic.  You can never go wrong that way!

Gallery Wall Inspiration With Shelving

One of the walls that I am planning to do I think would be best served up with shelves.  Shelving adds extra texture but also a bit of order and guidelines in the structure of the overall design in my opinion.

I absolutely love the black and white aesthetic with this one! The shelves are perfectly misaligned and proportioned.

Mor black and white, which just screams timeless to me.  I love the incorporation of the crosses and the nuetral color vibe!

Gallery Wall Inspiration with Unexpected Elements

I love seeing unexpected elements in gallery walls.  Antique windows. Door pieces.  Fencing.  Large Clocks.  All Kinds of things have been seen adding design and texture to gallery walls across the interwebs.

How cool is this window thrown in here?  I love not only the window but the fact that its an irregularly shaped window and it works!

They said I am gonna take a piece of this old fence and hang it on the wall.  And it is gonna look fab! And they DID THAT! I love it! Who says the white picket fence has to be outside to be the fairy tale!
