I have built up to this blog post over the last couple weeks with my tutorials on how to creatively display your images. How you display them, is completely up to you. I like to mix and match styles all throughout my home… lots of bright colors, a mix of styles in furniture, and my wall art is no different.
On the wall I displayed wrapped canvases, repurposed windows turned into frames, a shadowbox art project, watercolor prints, and some regular framed prints as well. Typically, in every other place I have rented/lived, I like to make a staggered, more random arrangement on the wall. It just wasn't working with this space. I can adapt, so I arranged these the best way they fit together. It took hours, I am not going to lie.

Breaking it down… what am I looking at?
The regular old framed prints are pretty standard…. I printed via mpix.com and framed them with what I had already.
The top left canvas was ordered through my wedding photographer, and was a gift from a couple generous wedding guests that purchases gift certificates for photo products.
The canvas near the bottom right was ordered through CG Pro Prints, which I got a crazy good deal on: a 16x20" canvas for only $17.99. That price is good for new customers until 2/28 using coupon code PPAJAN14 if you want one for yourself!
Another neat feature on the wall are some watercolor-style prints. Using the Waterlogue app on my iPhone/iPad, I transformed images I already took into watercolors. I printed them via mpix.com and framed them as I would any other print. I would love to have them printed on textured paper in the future, for other projects but since these were being popped into a frame it didn't matter much.
