Art wall, updated
I am tardy for good reason this morning: we have a new niece! My sister-in-law went into labor in the middle of the night, and I went to stay with my nephew. We had a busy morning getting all three kids to two schools, and I'm playing catch up before picking them all up and hitting my brother's 40th birthday party. A busy day indeed for our clan.
Anyway, as promised. Voila.
As a reminder, in the beginning, there was this.
Which became this.
Which, in hindsight, looks skimpy to me.
A while back, I added a black and white photo of my girls in a frame I unearthed from my wedding. Then I wanted to add a photo from my wedding day and the silhouette Clio made me for mother's day when she was 3 (with the help of a teacher!)
I like how the silhouette is such a bigger scale than anything else. Typically I would center the largest image, but I like how it thrown it just enough off balance. I was very scientific in updating the layout: my major goal was to avoid lots of extra holes in the wall, so I used existing nails and ended up with a nicely "off" arrangement.
You can also see my little Moroccan table update. Last you saw, it was red.
I kept the red underneath but went orange on the outside. Fun two-tone!
Back to the wall, I love have such a personal arrangement in the bedroom. If you want my full on tutorial on the art of art walls, go right on over here.
Have a great weekend!

I tinkered with the art wall last weekend, and am loving the results.
