Gallery Wall Ideas

Pin to Pinterest

I’m sure that we can all agree that Gallery Walls are gorgeous, when someone else puts them together! When it comes to putting one up in my own home though, I’m stumped! Where do you even begin? We’ve put together some inspiring walls and ideas here, whether you have a lot of space or a little. We also love the many various styles of these collections. Are you using mirrors or frames? Do they match or are you moved to use all different sizes and textures? There is something here for you! There are tips and tricks to help make your Gallery Wall look like you hired a professional. Scroll through and be inspired!

I wanted to start out with something very inspiring, we love this Dinning Room Wall Gallery Wall from House of Rose.

In our home we have a beautiful art gallery wall by the area where our kids study. We used Michael’s Studio Décor® frames for a pop of color. I did have to cut down the pictures a little bit to fit some of the frames. With 40% off, it was so affordable and I love how it came out.

I think this is one of my favorite Photo Galleries from Forever Cottage. This Staircase Photo Gallery gives this space some true height. The light display looks really nice too.

Try creating a 3-D Gallery Wall like they did on Forever Cottage. I would never have thought of the raised wood trick!

Material Girl has a fun Television Photo Gallery Display to distract from the TV.

If the wall is still bare for you, I also love this Eclectic TV Photo Display from Beautiful Matters.

Two Twenty One has a beautiful White Gallery Wall with the mats and frames creating a nice white border. We really love this tutorial for creating a gallery wall using paper frames to layout the concept.

Shanty 2 Chic was really frugal with her frames in this Personalized Gallery Wall that acts as a family place maker with hooks – how creative, it really organizes the space!

Mandi Tremaynes a fun Shelved Photo Display for their Gallery. These photos can quickly and easily be changed out. They went with a black and white color scheme which I think helps the wall not be as busy as it has potential to be!

Heels in the Mud uses wood planks to make this Wired Photo Display.

Fill and entire wall with large photos like these Canvas Prints for an Office Photo Display from Modern Parents, Messy Kids.

Doesn’t this Gold Glam Gallery Wall stand out from Classy Clutter? I love the focus of one color (gold) and building the display around that!

This Whimsical Photo Gallery looks great in the little girl room display on Pretty Providence.

First of all, the nursery from Bowdenisms is to die for cute, but of course this Chalk Board Photo Gallery Stood Out to Us!

This is a bit outside the box, this Black and White Wall Gallery doesn’t use photo prints. Rather the prints have important dates, lyrics, family names, numbers and more. Truly unique idea from Design,Dining, and Diapers.

I am seeing canvas prints more and more. I love the look of these tall and narrow Canvas Print Ideas from Marla and Shane.

Keep the wall dark and the frame light like this Dark Gallery Wall from Driven by Decor.

Keep it simple and relaxed like Simplify. How relaxed and welcome in this Family Room Photo Wall?

Speaking of canvas prints, take your artwork to the side on your display. Display a child’s name, special date or occasion the photograph was taken. This idea comes from Asher Designs at hamiltonfamilyphotographer.com.

I am an Instagrammer, so this Instagram Gallery Wall from Gimme Some Oven really inspired me. I love the color!

This Shabby Chic Staircase Photo Arrangement, from Kasey Buick, is an eye catch! I love how everything is eclectic!

Try this Circle Clock Gallery Wall – Time Spent with Family is Worth Every SEcond from How Does She.

I love the idea of replacing photos with a Mirror Gallery Wall. Everytime you look in the mirror the display/photo changes! Source Unknown, but I would love to link back!

For Tips and Tricks, this Paint Stirrer Trick helps with alignment. Take a look at View Along the Way’s Gallery Wall Hack!

Christmas Party Appetizers

I love a social gathering – friends, intimate conversation, and (let’s be real) the party food. I love an good appetizer. In fact I probably love a party appetizer more than I love a good dinner entree. There is something exciting to me about a little bit of that and a little bit of this on my plate. Then when you find a favorite food, you go back for more. No one sees me sneak past that holiday tablescape for seconds or thirds or even fourths.

If you are hosting a holiday party this winter season, take a look at these Easy Christmas Party Appetizers Everyone Will Love. From festive cheese board wreaths to pull part Christmas tree bread, these savory bites will be sure to satisfy your company and add to the festive holiday atmosphere.

Don’t forget to include the Christmas Party Games too. Enjoy!

Winning Car Hacks for Moms. Turn your car into an oasis. Why didn’t I think of that ideas and car tips for travel and every day trips?!

Winning Car Hacks for Moms

If you are an on the go mother like me, the car probably feels like your second home. I feel as though I am constantly picking up, dropping off, taking here, and going there. Having an unkept space, just gives me anxiety. I hate trash around, I hate messes, and I hate clutter. In fact, using the word hate (which I hate) means I REALLY dislike it and I am always looking for hacks and tips to make my car space more family friendly and thus pleasing to me – the mom!

Take a look at these winning car hacks and tips for mom, we don’t think you will be disappointed!

First, going on a long car ride. Keep the kids entertained without using electronics and with the use of little to no supplies. Download these 12 games for the car. Set includes kids car games with instructions, conversation cards, road trip scavenger hunt and conversation cards for the Family.

Try putting wax cubes in a mason jar with holes. The heat will melt the wax and release the scent. | Source Unknown (buy wax cubes here).

Two things I keep in the front seat area are my Clorox Wipes and Paper Towels. People always need napkins, so I toss back the roll, and I use Clorox wipes to wipe down the inside of the car while I am pumping gas or briefly the dashboard at a red light. My two year old car look brand new. That’s saying a lot for it being the primary mode of transportation for five kids!

Both these Paper Towels and Clorox Disinfecting Wipes are on my Subscribe and Save list. Viva Paper Towels are the best, they are really soft and not rough on hands or the face.

Clean car mats with these cleaning tips, who knew Dawn and hydrogen peroxide would be the trick!? | All Things Thrifty

This was us me. Traveling with three minors and praying I would have enough to do to distraction my littles. The anxiety in the trip was actually prior to the day of the flights. I was very high strung trying to figure out, no only what to pack for our trip, but what to pack for the actual day of travel. In an effort to help myself with travel, I came up with our post Airplane Activities for Kids. I do that sometimes. I research my own needs and end up putting something fun together for you guys. I consider it a service to us both – wink!

During my research, I saw a lot of ideas for toddlers but I also wanted an idea for kids of young elementary age. That is why I came up with this printable Airplane Bingo. There are a few ways to play – honestly mom, customize it to your family, but here were my ideas.

Play the boards as a Tic-Tac Toe. First to spot 3 items in a row/diagonal, wins!
Play the boards as a Bingo (filling in all 9 boxes). First to spot all 9 objects, wins!
