Collage of yardsale finds

I wanted to create a gallery wall somewhere and since we don’t have high ceilings or  lots of wall space I decided to use the wall behind the couch in the living room.

wallThe old frame and oils were all found at yardsales and I think I got the birdcage at a thrift shop. If you remember Rhoda’s gallery wall…..she had a birdcage in a frame too.  Just call me copycat. Cat face

It doesn’t look quite right yet ……I still have to find a few smaller things to add before I call it finished and I’m working on that.  wall2Maybe when I find a few more pieces I’ll redo the whole thing, like hang the large framed piece on a different wall.  I like how the oils have the same subject matter but hate that dang thermostat!

The mercury glass lamps are from TJMaxx, I can always find great lamps there! Fabric across the back of the couch is from the thrift shop and I’m contemplating just what to do with it. The pear on the coffee table was green and I sprayed it white.

That’s as far as I’ve gotten on this room redo. I still have curtain panels to add and finish hanging things on the walls. And I’d love to add some kind of rug, maybe, I’m not sure about that.

On the other side of the room is a table makeover that I’ll be sharing soon.

    This is going to be a fun project for you and you're off to a great start. Why do they always put a thermostat in such a conspicuous place? It seems true in every home. Yes, a rug under the coffee table would look wonderful. Have fun gathering!

    Debbie that looks great! I love the theme and the colors. I have to tell you the truth…I did not notice the thermostat until you said so.

    Love the wall grouping. The paintings are so pretty. Why are the thermostats always in the most awkward places??!! I must admit, I didn't much think about it because everything around it is so pretty! Linda

    Hey girl! Copy away, I loved my gallery wall too. I wonder if you incorporated that thermo if that would help. Like put an empty frame around it to make it part of the grouping. Might or might not work. Hope you will consider coming to Haven, we are very excited about it!!
