DIY gallery walls are ev.ery.where. right now. Stairway, living room, nursery, baby room, you name it! Office? Of course!
When I was planning my Custom Craft Space, I know I wanted to include a small gallery wall. BUT I also knew that I wanted something functional for my office. So I created a custom Office Gallery Wall that was both pretty, and functional :)
I started by ransacking my home for old, or unused picture frames, lol. I found a few that were the right size, and planned a layout for them. I hung them on the wall first, just to make sure I would like the arrangement before painting them all :)
Step two… spray paint!
I chose to paint in teal and white. Somehow I had already collected an assortment of teal boxes, lol. Obviously I love that colour!
Next was the fun step!
My husband cut three different materials for me so that I could place them inside the frames. He already had ALL of these things in his garage, so we didn’t have to spend a dime on the project! Cork for a cork board, a peg board to store craft tools, and arborite to act as my new white board :)
We cut them all to size, filled the frames, and upholstered the cork board frame with a lovely white and grey fabric that I already had (and that may become future upholstery for a desk chair too!!).
And the tiny frame in the corner was left alone, to house some much needed daily inspiration: a beautiful picture of my daughter and I :)
What do you think?
Do you like the white and teal?
Do you have an office gallery wall?
