Making My House a Home..

As most of you may know, we moved into a new home at 

the beginning of June. We love our new home and our 

so glad we moved! <3 

One of my favorite parts of moving into a new home 

is getting to decorate it. Every home has a 

different feel to it and a different style that just 

works. 

I am not a huge fan of having tons of wall decor 

that is just words of random things. For me, I like 

the walls to tell a story about our family and our 

life and the things we love to do. 

I put pictures EVERYWHERE! This is an ongoing 

project for me. I am always putting up new images 

and changing some out for new ones. 

I thought that today would be a great time to share 

with you guys how I have the walls in my living room 

set up. :) 

Warning! I mix match my frames. <3

When you walk into my home there is a little knook, 

I used this spot to put an 11x14 of my husband and I 

both holding our daughter for the first time, then 2 

5x7's of us as a family and one 4x6 of Bailey in the 

middle. :) I also have a bookshelf below it and I 

put two 4x6 of Bailey there. 

Next is the large wall near our tv. Our couches are 

positioned in an L shape and one faces this wall 

straight on. I chose to use an 8x10 Poppy Tree Frame 

as the center peice holding a family picture and 

then put a small inspiration peice below it. To the 

left I put only pictures of my husband and daughter. 

Top to Bottom is a 4x6 , 8x10 , 5x7 and 4x6. On the 

right I put only pictures of my daughter and myself. 

Top to Bottom is a 4x6 , 8x10, 4x6 and 4x6. 

The next wall is to the left of the wall above it is 

a small wall that forms a square in the middle of my 

kitchen. I chose to use this wall to be a place to 

pictures of our friends and family. This is above my 

daughters play kitchen and she loves being able to 

look up and see her family and friends.  Top to 

bottom is 8x10 , 4x6, 8x10, 4x6, 8x10, 4x6 , 5x7 . 

The next wall is the wall in the hallways leading to 

the stairs. I chose this wall as Bailey's Showcase 

wall. It is only pictures of Bailey being well... 

Bailey! There are currently 5 8x10's and a 4x6. This 

wall isn't finished yet. It still has about 3-4 

8x10's that need to be hung up and a couple 4x6's. 

I'll share this wall again once it is finished. 

UPDATE:
Here is the updated version of the wall above. I still need to adjust the spacing and straighten some of the images.  It is still missing one image( It fell and broke! Boo!) and the image of myself and Bailey is just a placeholder for that image. :) 
(Pardon the crappy quality image below, the sun moved to the back of my house so not a lot of natural light)

I hope this blog post gives you a little inspiration 

into ways to hang up your own photographs. Clients 

feel free to contact me if you would like help 

figuring out what would look best on your wall! :)
