I’m a homebody that loves an aesthetically pleasing home. I love to blend classic/contemporary/ Mid-Century Modern for a timeless aesthetic.
#gallerywall #collagewall #walls #eclectic #midcenturymodern **GALLERY WALL TIPS** (For an eclectic gallery wall) Sometimes I hear people say that they don’t know what to put on their wall or what art they should display. Maybe some think that art is expensive. There is plenty of it that is. And yet there is plenty that isn’t. You don’t have to be an art conniseur or an art lover to have some nice-looking art or photography on your wall. Art is all around us in many forms. Just find or capture an image of something/someone you find visually appealing (whether drawn, painted or photographed) and hang it up. I believe that just about anything can pass for art if it is framed. Now…onto the subject of gallery walls. There are different styles of gallery walls.  The style that I am telling you about is the eclectic style. It’s considered eclectic because of the mishmash of sizes of art, the placement of the art, and the subject matter. This style is a little difficult, because it involves more trial and error till you get a look that you are satisfied with. It is more asymmetrical rather than symmetrical. The eclectic gallery is best for those who are maximalists or like a bohemian aesthetic. It works because you may have a variety of different sizes of artwork and variety of subject matter to display. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE, AT THE VERY LEAST, TWO BIG PIECES OF ART FOR YOUR ART ASSEMBLY. Perhaps you don’t have a lot of big pieces or even huge pieces and that is why an eclectic gallery wall would be a good choice to assemble. TRY PUTTING OBJECTS INTO THE MIX. (Not just flat, framed art or canvases) Notice how I have a ukulele and a small shelf with a ceramic decoration among the mix. YOUR ART DISPLAY DOES NOT HAVE TO START AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WALL AND GO TO THE TOP OF IT. YOU MAY HAVE YOUR GALLERY BE ABOVE A PIECE OF FURNITURE THAT’S AGAINST THE WALL. This works when you are using more small pieces than big ones. CONSIDER SOME SORT OF COHESION. Don’t just put anything on that wall. Consider the colors in the art. May they go well together. AND WHEN USING BOTH MONOCHROMATIC PIECES AND COLORED PIECES, MAKE SURE YOU DON’T CLUSTER TOO MANY OF THE COLORED PIECES TO ONE CERTAIN AREA OF THE COMPOSITION OR VICE VERSA. I once noticed that I had too many of a certain color happening on one part of the wall and it bothered me that it wasn’t equally dispersed among the wall. Then I fixed it. I’m sure I can think of other tips, but I may share them in another post.  But for now, let me leave you with the third picture in this post of one of my past gallery walls. It is rather different than a typical gallery wall. It is eclectic though, but it involves stripes that are not painted on the wall. Instead, they are painted balsa wood planks. Actually, what I did was stained the wood with wood stain. I had arranged the planks among the real art as if they were artworks too.

I had this in my cart for awhile, was hesitant due to some of the reviews, and there were very little reviews for the oval, which is what I purchased. I decided to take a chance and buy them. Some of the reviews did mention the instructions not being very clear, which I felt I only “struggled” with 2 of the steps. I chose to build one at a time, start to finish to work out any kinks if needed, took about an hour to put together the first. Granted I took my time, I would also recommend organizing all of your pieces on the floor and read the instructions start to finish prior to putting it together. The second one I put together in 30 minutes or less.A handful of the reviews show and have complaints of the doorknobs not lining up. I did not have that issue whatsoever.Advice if you purchase this: step 2 should have added to insert 6 letter A’s PRIOR to step 3. Step 3 doesn’t specify which 6 holes to place the letter A’s (there’s a total of 8, same sized holes). I will post a picture and circle the holes in blue that they need to be inserted in, as that was 1 mistake I made but was quickly caught.Step 9: attaching the magnetic pieces to the inside of the doors-do this at step 7, just trust me. Way easier, no risk of feeling like you’re going to snap the door off while holding the door, applying pressure and screwing the piece in.Aside from those 2 very very minimal issues within the instructions, I am really happy with this purchase. The magnets are strong, holds the door shut. I do have a toddler and they’re able to open the doors, they do have to work for it a little bit to get them open! Very easy for an adult to do. The shelves do hold weight pretty well, my child chose to test that out, shelf holds 30oz lbs without breaking. They are heavier than I expected, which is what I wanted. They are much better quality than IKEA furniture, more solid and sturdy.TV on the stand is 55” for reference.I was also worried there was nothing behind the rattan pieces, but it’s actually very sturdy and backed by wood.I chose to not put the backing on for now, due to us using it under the tv, want to be able to access the plugs and have them pushed up flush to the wall.Just buy it already! #TVStand #ScandinavianDesign #RattanFurniture
