These days, many people have gotten so used to carrying their photos around on their phones and
tablets. However, printing out your photos and turning them into a wonderfully displayed gallery
wall in your home can help brighten up the room. No matter how big or small your living space may
be, creating a gallery wall can be an excellent way to breathe new life into the home. With that in
mind, here is an overview of how to create a gallery wall in 5 easy steps.
Step 1: Choose a Location
A gallery wall can be a great way to boost the aesthetic of any home. Before starting the gallery wall,
make sure you take the time to carefullygond paintingconsider which area of the home will be used. For instance,
you may want to choose to create these walls in the foyer, or maybe a living room or dining room
wall. Either way, take the time to carefully select the location before beginning the project.
Step 2: Create the Collection
Next, its time to create the collection. While a gallery wall is a project that can be constantly altered
and updated, its helpful to begin the project by taking the time to carefully select the pieces for the
collection. No matter if you prefer to view personal photos, landscape pictures, prints of famous
artwork, canvas prints, or anything in between, these pieces can be used to create an amazing
gallery wall.

Step 3: Arrange the Artwork
The next step in this process is to arrange the artwork. Take the time to sort through artwork to see
how it can be best positioned and decide which photos and artwork look great when theyre
positioned next to one another.

Step 4: Choose the Frames
Not all artwork and pictures need to be framed. Nevertheless, using frames or having framed prints
are a great method of making the photos and artwork appear more polished. Take the time to select
the frames for the personalized artwork. They can be in various sizes, shapes, and colors, and should
be done in a way that makes each photo and work of art look its best.
Step 5: Finalize and Install
After completing the rest of the steps, its time to finalize the design and hang them on the wall.
When youre doing this, carefully decide where each of the framed prints or canvas prints (or a
combination of both) should be placed. This process may require the use of a measuring tape, a mini
level, nails, a hammer, and other tools. Its important to make sure that all of the custom prints are
properly framed to avoid any mishaps. Be sure to space out the prints equally and make sure that
they are even and levelled for an aesthetically pleasing look.
