Gallery Wall Update and a Quick Trick for Hanging Picture Frames

Gallery Wall Update and a Quick Trick for Hanging Picture Frames

When I decluttered my office for its big makeover, I ended up with a hodgepodge of photo frames without a home. Luckily most of them have black picture framing so I knew I could work them  into my gallery wall. The only problem is that they weren’t all frames that can hang on walls. Most of them were frames that have the stand so they can sit on a desk. I was also able to create beautiful displays with split canvas prints.

No problem. With a little Macgyver DIY I converted those picture frames and got them hung on my gallery wall. (That backing really collects fuzz!) I just used a piece of string to wrap around the photo holder clips and then I hung that on the nail. Yes, I probably could have used picture wire or something fancier but I was doing some DIY on the fly.

I added this free printable that I found over at The DIY Mommy. I pinned it for you right here.  I didn’t want to do anything too fall specific. I printed this one out on card stock and I will probably leave it up through Thanksgiving.

I picked up these California and Ohio hand painted signs from a vendor at The Spotted Cow, where I have my booth space. I didn’t have her put any stars on the Ohio sign because we have lived all over that state. I would have stars everywhere!

This seemed fitting as well! I bought this awhile ago when I had my retail space at a different store. But I love it still!

This Gallery Wall is all coming together beautifully! I still have a few spaces to fill, and I’m considering adding some religious canvas wall art to bring a sense of peace and inspiration to the space. I’d also like to cover the doorbell and thermostat, and a wall hanging clock might fit in nicely. This may mean some rearranging at some point, but that’s just how things go around here!
