I’m finally getting around to hanging things on the walls in our new house, and it’s SUCH a great feeling!
I’ve never been one for blank walls, so I’ve been having a blast getting thing up.
People often ask my opinion on how and where to hang pictures, and I feel like I never know what to tell them.
The Reason: it’s really up to them!!
There are so many ways and ideas on how to do it and it all depends on that person’s STYLE.
Today I wanted to show you a few walls we decorated this past week and also show you some of my FAVs I’ve used as inspiration.
VINYL and PHOTO GALLERY WALL
Bought ALL the frames from Goodwill for about $8 total, spray painted them all black, and got Pictures printed at Wal-Mart for $10. I then laid them out on the ground how I would like it and just put them up guestimating where they should go. From there I used the measurements between the pictures to determine the size of vinyl I needed. I then put the Vinyl up that I cut myself.
Time-consuming but easy!
Got the idea from here…
CLOCK WALL
Simple but I LOVE it.
My most recent FAV:
Family Tree from Pinterest
Definitely want to do something similar soon.
{Seriously love this!}
And for more inspiration check out these pics below. 
Hope this helps!
ENJOY!
Alright, so it may be just me…but I can't get the link to the suggestions for more photo wall layouts to work. And I REALLY need the help in that arena. I've been gathering frames for a while now when I catch them on the cheap but I can't figure out how to get them all up and look cute. I really like vinyl idea and may have to steal that.
I love your clock wall and the photo gallery. Looks great! Can't wait to see more!
Your wall turned out amazing! I'm frothing at the bit to get some decorating done to and this looks like it would be so fun! Thanks for sharing

Is there anyway that you could e-mail me the picture with a higher quality? I cannot read the dimensions of the pictures/frames in the picture frame ideas? My e-mail is [email protected]

I could seriously spend hours on your blog! Thanks for all the inspiring ideas!
Can you please tell me where you got your vinyl lettering for your photo wall and the sizes of the words?
hey
i just found your sight through pinterest because i loved your schematics of all the different wall designs and the dimension of pictures you used. i would love to show some of my photo clients these schematics so they will have a better idea of what size pictures to order. i wanted to ask you if i could use these images printed out or if it is something you are selling. and how i can get a bigger, higher resolution copy that would print well. thank you so much. im in love now with lots of things on your blog but this was the thing that got me here and before i used your pics i wanted to ask permission. just to be clear its the last two images that are not your real pictures but just the layout designs. thanks
Hi Ashley! Thank you for the comment. Those images are actually something I found on Pinterest that I was unable to track to the original sources. I should make up some of my own similar though because it would be super easy!! Can you shoot me an email in the next week or two {[email protected]} to remind me and bug me to do it.
Thank you for all the great links and ideas for a photo wall! I am thinking it’s finally time to do something like this with all our family pictures.
I love this photo wall!!! I don’t have access to a Cricut machine. Would you ever consider making & selling the vinyl words? I would love it!!!!
I would love to know what fonts you used for the vinyl.
Looove this!! Butttt where did you get the vinyl!? You and another said you cut your own. Let me in on the loop lol i can’t wait to do this!
..ok, i dont read far enough down. I see.. the circuit. . i dont have one.. bah hum bug!
Love your wall!! Working on a similar one for my home office. I have a new cricut machine… What cartridge do you use for the word fonts?? I don’t have cute ones & need to buy. Thanks
I love the use of vinyl in your gallery. I am a huge fan of words in art and all the walls, so this is right up my alley! I have featured this gallery wall on my blog as one of my favorites: http://www.thelovenerds.com/2013/03/gallery-wall-pinspiration.html
