Sprucing up our Hallway

I know I talked with you guys about gallery walls last week and we debated symmetrical vs. asymmetrical arrangements.  And I left you guys hanging about where I was going to hang things for the gallery wall that I was working on.

So if you were dying to know how it came out, here is my gallery wall!  Asymmetrical of course!   Sorry for the craptastic pictures …. it is a little difficult to take pictures of a hallway!

I have all silver frames – which not only gives it a cohesive look but also brightens up the hallway considerably.

I did a grouping of family pictures – which is really important to me.  Our family all is at least 5 hours away and I really wanted to have everyone where I could see them every day.  While we can’t have our family together – I can have them up on the wall together.  All in one place.  And that makes me happy on a level that is somewhat hard to understand.

I also wanted to show you some of my favorites!  I love this one of my hubby when he was three!  Isn’t he adorable!

My college roommate drew this picture of my oldest cat.  I love it! 

And this one is my favorite!  I found this behind another picture in an album my mom brought up a couple weeks ago.  It is a picture of me and her – and I just love it!

I am really loving the whole thing.  Just walking by the smiles and memories warms my heart.  And it is right outside the baby’s room – so I am excited for him to get to see and love all the memories too! 

And that is as mushy as I think I should get with you guys on a Tuesday night!  So what about you?  Do you have a wall of family photos in your house?  Does it make you grin every time you walk by too?  I wanna know!   Oh and if you want to see even more Gallery Wall inspiration – hop over to the Inspired Room and join in on Melissa’s Gallery Wall party!
