Lovin: An Art Wall

This has been on my wish (or should I say to-do) list for many years. I adore an art wall. I love how it adds impact and a personal touch to a space. I started a small one in our other house but this time I'm determined to create something magical up our staircase. Let's call it a New Years goal! Here are some of my inspiration photos (I'm sorry - I will get better at sourcing - ahh...another goal) Enjoy...

  1. Not much I love more than a good art wall- great inspiration shots- especially love the second one.

  2. It's always such a struggle to get things up on the wall for me(esp when renting), but once they are up I love how it looks! Maybe I'll make it my NY's goal too :)

  8. I love art walls! Your staircase would be perfect for an art wall. I love mixing and matching frames. Old frames, new frames, some canvas and in different finishes. I love the mix.

  9. This is my goal too - I love the look of these art walls and am determined to have one too. We can push each other. Oh, by the way - can you and your family be any bloody cuter!!! I'm refering to the family photos at Crescent Beach. My goodness, how adorable you all are.
    Regarding your request about teaching photography - I wouldn't dare! I don't feel I know enough about it and still struggle to capture the image I want. I think it's hard for me as my friends are all professional photographers - I want to be able to snap out a perfect shot in seconds like they do. I'll see if I can talk one of them into a workshop here at the farm or something - in spring! That would be fun.
