My Gallery Wall Quick Tips.

Our high ceilings pretty much demand gallery walls throughout our home, but I think even if that wasn't the case I'd still have masses of prints hanging in every room. I just love the way they fill those awkward spaces (you know the ones, the wall behind the sofa, the corner of your bedroom, the space above your desk!) while adding character to a room.

We finally filled a patch of blank space in our living room with prints and it feels like the final puzzle piece has clicked in to place in this room. What a relief!
We've had a lot of practice at the ol' gallery wall game, and we've now got it down to a fine art... and by that I mean we only fall out once and it's a relatively low key argument. Go us!

When we put up this gallery wall, I actually filmed the process (you can see it here) but I thought I'd share a few quick tips that we always stick to when we're hanging prints...

01. Bigger prints are better

Generally speaking, that is! I usually think larger prints (say, A3 and above) of a similar size make a gallery wall look a bit more 'put together' - a cluster of small prints can look a bit cluttered and random in my opinion. I tend to pick 3-4 larger prints and then balance it out with a couple of slightly smaller sized frames.
