gallery wall...

Ever since I repainted the school room, I had a blank stairway wall. I knew I wanted to do a gallery of some sort but didn't quite know where to start.



So this weekend when a pile of frames fell on my feet, I had the idea to just do it. I didn't feel like going shopping so I worked with the frames/pictures I already had. Which turns out is a lot.

My first attempt I didn't get any pictures of. You should be glad. Second attempt.


No thank you. Not really the look I was going for. So I added and subtracted more frames:



I like it better but am still not totally happy with it. I think I need to swap some artwork out and some frames but I don't have anything at the present that will work. I'm going to try to be patient. I'm just glad it's not blank anymore.

I think it looks great! I am sure it will grow/change as time goes but I think you are off to a great start.

I'd love to have a staircase like yours! I think it looks beautiful whether plain or adorned with pictures!

I really enjoyed looking through your photos, I'm glad to come across your blog. I have 6 children too and am looking forward to following you!

Warm wishes from Kansas!
