2 things I think about when buying a rug
I am a sucker for all things machine washable 🧺🧼. Especially, when it comes to rugs 🤓🫶🏼. And if it’s a neutral and textured rug, I am sold 🥳.
Creating a gallery wall, Part 2 🖼🪜✌🏼.
I always keep in mind 💭 , especially working on a big wall.
🔨Start with your biggest piece of artwork. That will allow you to have a better idea or view of how much wall space it will be taking up.
🔨 Create balance with contrast. Have a mix of horizontal and vertical artworks. That will help create visual interest.
🔨 Play with shapes. Don’t restrict the wall with only artworks. Different objects help create texture and dimensions.
Remember, have FUN and PLAY 🎉. There isn’t any right or wrong, experimenting is part of the creative process. ❌⭕️❌⭕️

HANGING ARTWORK
Hello @klklemz 🙋🏻♀️!
Thank you so much for asking📮👉🏼 “Love this. I have a question. What is your trick for hanging artwork. You do such a nice job of putting together different pieces. I have a hard time hanging two pieces together. How do you do so many and have them look so perfect?”
I appreciate you so much 😘💖🖼📐🔨🪜!
……………………………………………………………………..
Not playing by any hard-and-fast rules of hanging art. I do like starting a wall with the biggest piece of art that I will be using in the room. I love creating an element of surprise by playing with pops of colors. Creating impact by playing with different sizes of artwork. Creating contrast with different styles of artwork. Keeping in mind the colors in the existing space. Letting the pieces of furnitures, objects and artworks in the room play off each other. For me, hanging artwork is more of an intuitive process. I let the artwork speak to me. There is no right there is no wrong. Just play, play, play. I promise, the more holes you put in the wall the better you get at it. Thank you so much for watching and I’ll talk to you guys really soon. Bye.
XOXO
