You don’t need to hunt down one perfect frame at a time. You don’t need custom mats. And you don’t need to wait months to see your wall come together.
The Frames That Make It Work
Below, you’ll see the individual frame styles used in this gallery wall. Each one plays a specific role in creating a layered, designer look.
Curved Corner Frames
These frames feel fresh and current, and a side benefit - with the curved corners, they are a bit more forgiving when you hang them in your gallery. If they don't line up exactly with their neighbor, it is difficult to tell. The large frames can be easily used with or without the mats, for large family portraits or kids fanciful art creations.
Bullseye Mirror
This bullseye mirror is an unexpected addition, but it adds such great texture with the dual finishes and convex mirror. It also bounces light from surrounding spaces, and is really beautiful in the evening. This piece also feels like you found it somewhere, and adds instant soul to the gallery composition.
Curved Corner Frame, in a smaller size
By using the same frame style, but in a smaller size, they instantly add visual rhythm across the gallery. By hanging some vertically and some horizontally these pieces are really versatile.
Gilded and Grand Frames
These gold, figured frames bring some old world charm to a gallery wall that is actually brand new. By varying finishes, you allow your gallery wall to evolve, as you can add other finishes later on, if you would like to further expand your gallery over the years. The detail on these gilded beauties is created from the subtle shading and shadows in the frame's intricate elements.
The Smoky Sleeper
This smoky wood-textured frame is an unexpected addition. We need something else in the gallery that has a chunky, dark frame, other than the round mirror. Without something else dark and visually significant, the bullseye mirror would look out of place and unbalanced. This 12" x 12" frame would also easily accept a mirror tile, which are also 12" x 12", making an easy, one-of-a-kind mirror if you want to add more texture to your completed gallery.
Custom Look, Arrives Quickly
This frame looks completely custom, and has the vibe of something that would belong surrounding an old master, or a beautiful piece of original art. The chunky frame with the smaller opening makes your entire gallery look like it is custom-framed, without the cost or time delay.
A Landscape is ALWAYS a good idea....
Breaking up other photos, this landscape on canvas breaks up all the glass and mirror found in the other frames. Landscape paintings have been popular for centuries because they add the feeling of a window to any wall. When you look into the landscape painting, it extends your view into the painting and visually beyond the finite plane of your wall.
The Quirky Size
This frame's proportion is so unusual, at 20" wide x 10" high, it instantly has a "found object" custom charm to it. We hung this one horizontally, and can frame a photo or piece of artwork alike.
Square, for the Win
When you vary the shapes of the frames in your new gallery wall, it will keep your eye moving in a way that just isn't possible if the frames are all the same shape. At 12" square, a frame like this is a secret weapon. It allows you to fill voids in your gallery that aren't large enough for rectangular frames, and can frame photos or artwork.
Bulk Can Be Beautiful
These 11 x 14 frames come in a bulk pack of six, and allow us to stretch our gallery wall budget. We don't need them all for this gallery, but the price just can't be beat. Put the extras to use in another area of your home. These are particularly great for framing kids' artwork, or just keeping on hand for when you want to expand your gallery.
Designed to Feel Personal—Not Precious
One of the biggest misconceptions about gallery walls is that they have to be overly formal or “too nice” to live with. We believe the opposite.
A great gallery wall should:
-
Evolve over time
-
Mix personal photos with art and found pieces - something unexpected is always a good idea!
-
Feel comfortable and approachable in a busy, lived-in home. Think lovely and interesting, but not so contrived, it feels formal and static.
By using accessible frames and a thoughtful mix of finishes, you give yourself permission to change things up, swap artwork, and let your wall grow with your family. Don't worry about this being absolutely perfect, the best gallery walls have tons of personality, and a little quirkiness, too.
That’s how homes stay happy.
