Gallery Wall

Gal1

If you’re anything like me, I bet you take lots of pictures and you don’t print them out?

When I came upon this picture on Pinterest, I knew this would solve the world’s all my problems.  I got my measurements from this site, which is the lady who took the original picture (very good instructions here if you want to do one yourself).  Then, off I went to the builder’s store to pick up all my supplies.  We measured, cut, and assembled.  I used wood filler so the screws wouldn’t show.  Then I painted the shelves black.

Once dry, my sweet husband helped me measure and screw them into the wall.



I grabbed a hodge-podge of miscellaneous frames around the house.  I recently found the hands at Hobby Lobby and decided to spray paint the whole lot.

Since the shelves are black, we opted to spray paint everything white.

We installed 2 sets of the gallery shelves. The first set is 22” wide …

and the second set is 35” wide.  What is perfect about these shelves is I can change things up without putting all kinds of holes in the wall.

I love these hands!!  I want to go in and paint their nails next!  Haha

And another favorite, my glass head from Pier One.  About half my friends say this is too creepy for them!! Not me…it inspires me to dress up for Halloween!
