Create a Stunning Gallery Wall in 3 Simple Steps
Turning a bare wall into an impressive gallery wall doesn’t have to be complicated. with a few important steps, you can create a gallery wall that showcases your style or memories and adds personality to any room.
1. Choose Your Artwork and Frames:
Start by selecting the artwork and photos you want to display. You can mix and match different styles and sizes for visual interest. Otherwise, you can stick to a cohesive theme or colour palette. Once you have your art, choose frames that complement your pieces. For a streamlined, contemporary look, you can use frames of the same colour, or have an eclectic mix of styles.
2. Plan Your Layout:
Measure out the amount of space you want your gallery wall to fill and tape this section off on the floor. Lay your frames out on the floor to experiment with different arrangements. Try placing the largest pieces in the centre or at eye level, and build around them with smaller items. Use painter’s tape to mark the positions on your wall or create paper templates to simulate the layout. This helps you visualise the final look and ensures a balanced arrangement. TIP: aim to keep the spacing at around 7cm apart.
3. Hang and Adjust:
Once you’re happy with the layout, start hanging your pieces. Begin with the centre or focal point, and work your way outwards. Use a level and measuring tape to ensure everything is aligned and evenly spaced. Step back frequently to make sure the arrangement looks just right. You can always adjust as needed to achieve a balanced display.
