Home Nesting Update: Photo Wall

I mentioned in a recent "inspiration for your nest" post that I was looking for inspiration for a photo collage to put up in my living room above my couch. My little collection of frames grew to a good amount, so I spent last weekend planning out my collage on the floor of my living room. This is our couch view before the collage went up:

There's a lot of wall space and the fact that we painted horizontal stripes on the wall really helped make it not seem so bare for the months it's been empty. :) After much shifting around of frames, leveling, and nailing//re-nailing, this is the result:

I'm so happy with how it just added a touch of coziness to our little place. :) I still have photos to add in the frames and I have some fun prints coming in the mail this week. It's definitely a work in progress.  Once it's more complete, I'll be sure to take more photos as well as some close-ups to show off the details of the prints. I'm just so happy things are on the walls!!

Also -- I'm thinking about taking Rachel's Style Your Space e-course to help give me a little more guidance on spicing up the place. Anyone taken it yet?  

Wishing you coziness and a happy Easter!

Inspiration for Your Nest: Photo Walls

I've been collecting a little pile of photos and artwork I would like to use in a collage above our couch in the living room. I'm SO stuck with so many choices and what to use//not use. I've been looking for some creative inspiration and decided to dedicate my nesting feature to it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All photo's found here via my Pinterest

About five pictures up (the one with the yellow tray on the coffee table), they've used what appears to be clothes hangers to display their art...I LOVE this...I have a couple of pieces that would look best displayed just like that. Anyone know where I can find these little cuties?

AND if you haven't heard, Jon and I re-signed our lease for another 14 months which is FANTASTIC. I've been a little apathetic when it comes to walls and wanted to have more security in knowing we would be staying before going nuts on the walls. Walls...be prepared!

Happy nesting!
