****UPDATE****
This is what the current gallery wall looks like now. Read more about that here.
After the wedding, Clayton & I had so many wedding & engagement photos we wanted to frame. My biggest dilemma was I didn’t want to fill my shelves and fireplace mantle with a plethora of random frames! I hate cutter. So I decided a picture frame wall with our top favorite photos would be the way to go. And might I add that we used a lot of the same frames that were used in our wedding (double sentimental!) The frames in the wedding were used as our table numbers. I love that we are incorporating a part of our wedding into our home.
{Here is exactly how I created the gallery frame wall}
I gathered up 17 of my favorite frames. I traced the frames in newspaper and junk mail so I could use these cut outs as a guide for what the frames would look like on the wall.
I tapped the junk mail cut outs on the wall and moved the cut outs around until the spacing of the frames looked good
(Trust me, it’s going to start looking better soon!)
one by one I nailed & hung each frame in the place of the cut outs..
In keeping with Operation Glam Chic I went to Lowe’s and grabbed some high gloss yellow and turquoise spray paint by Valspar
I decided to paint two frames yellow and two turquoise
What a difference these bright colors make!
After that we chose and printed our “love photos” to complete our love wall… So what do you think?
We love the bright pops of color! It is truly amazing what a couple of $4 cans of spray paint can do.
