Are there empty walls in your home waiting for your love?

If your concern has been that putting together an amazing gallery wall is a touch too challenging for you, we at Artflute want to show you otherwise. This handy guide will help you design a gallery wall that makes a style statement and that you love enjoying in your home.

To start off, there are some questions to consider. What is the space you are looking at to create the gallery wall. It can be the wall along a stairway, it can be the space above a sofa or even the corner of a room. Choose a place that you like and then begin choosing artworks— both originals and prints, souvenirs from your memorable travels suchs as masks, street art and decorative plates, and your favourite photos and more. The wall or the space you have chosen for the gallery wall will itself determine the type of art and objects you can hang on it. To begin designing a gallery wall, it is important to consider the various artworks, their dimensions, how they will be framed, the wall they will be hung on and the rest of the decor in that room.

A way to ensure that your gallery wall looks sleek and well put together is to go with a precise grid of frames. It can be measured and craft paper can be used to arrange the artworks that you have in mind before you go in with hammer and nails. In this case, a common theme can bring the artworks together, such as with a gallery wall of landscape paintings, or artworks that are part of a series by a single artist can also make for a striking gallery wall.
