Make a wall gallery.
I bought these book prints at Winterberry Cottage on etsy.
The matted frames were puchased at the Christmas Tree Shop. (Caution- cheap frames are hard to hang straight. Some of them are different sizes and hangers are in different places. Nothing like a photo to help you see things. I've since gone back and straightened up some of these.)
In case, you missed a previous post, the houndstooth ottoman came from Target.
Three years ago my living room looked like this-
We moved and leased out the house. Tenants destroyed it, especially the floors. So we came back and continued the wood throughout this room too.
I'm amazed at how much larger it made the space feel.
More details to come.

The wood flooring sure did make a difference! I love the gallery. Hadn't thought of doing that. Now I'm thinking...
Love it!

Looks great. I love those cute prints. I know what you mean about cheap frames being all different. That was the case in my dining room with my gallery wall. Get what you pay for I guess.
Your living room and wall gallery project look fantastic. You've chosen lovely patterns and colours for the room - very warm and energetic.
Have a lovely day!

Your living room is sooo beautiful! I love the wall of pics. But, what really caught my eye is the floor...the dark stain really pop against the light walls and makes the room look larger.
It was good you could come in and repair what was destroyed! Hugs!

Hello,

You are a smart lady...:o)

The prints look super esp with the houndstooth ottoman in front of the sofa!
I love your living room, your colors are great. And that gorgeous floor! The art gallery looks wonderful, I love the images in each of them. Your living room is very comfortable looking, my friend, the perfect place to curl up and read a book or simply chat with a friend. I especially like the white leather recliner, that is so beautiful!!!
Love and hugs, cindy
Your gallery wall is fabulous!! Great idea using the book! And I love the ottoman...I do hope you get many, many years out of it. It's really nice!

Your gallery wall looks so wonderful!! I love art on the wall instead of a mirror.
The houndstooth ottoman is fantastic. It's the perfect look for your beautiful room.

P.S. The wood floors look amazing.
LOVE the ottoman. I think that's my favorite thing with those circle pillows a close second. You have done such a good job making this place your home again. You should be really proud of yourself...have a great weekend!
Hi Tammy, firstly I must say...WOW, I love your gallery wall and living room redo! Just gorgeous. Secondly, thanks so much for leaving such a lovely comment on my blog and becoming a follower. And last but not least, I can't believe that ottoman is from Target - obviously the range at Target is much, much better than what's available in store here in Australia. I look forward to reading many, many more of your posts. Lee
The gallery wall worked great. Nice craigslist buy. That's were I got the couch I have now but I need to find another I get tired of them easy and that's a good way to change up more offten.Trish
Great idea and it looks great, My parents always put little knobs of some sort of clay (I'm sure it was for frames) that kept the pictures in place on the wall.
Love those prints! Your gallery wall looks terrific! Thanks for sharing.
The room looks fantastic...what a change. I love your gallery wall, it fits right in and is a very cleaver idea.(-:
Just checked out Winterberry, great stuff! The room is looking wonderful, the ottoman was a perfect choice!
Wow- your room is just gorgeous!! Love your gallery wall too! Come share it at Feathered Nest Friday sometime too! Have a wonderful weekend!
Love it, Tammy, especially those floors. That's on my to-do list. :)
I this the wall turned out great! I will remember to check the backs of frames, thanks for the tip. I love that ottoman. Makes me want to cover something in hounds tooth. It all looks great together. The new floors make a a big impact.
I just adore those prints and they look so perfect all together like that. Your room is gorgeous and I the ottoman is great, yeah Target!! :)

I love your red couch!
Tammy, the room looks great! Good job! Love the ottoman, too. I've got two in our family room, and I'm with you, we'll just enjoy them til they soil or wear out, then get more!! I've heard of using the sticky velcro on the backs of pics to help them stay straight.
Happy PS!

What a great room you put together with some amazing finds...love the art work...the bench and the silhouette pillow.
I put a link to your blog in my latest post, which I just published a few minutes ago. I borrowed a great idea from you and wanted to make sure you received credit for the original idea. Thanks so much for the inspiration. You can see it at http://the2seasons.com/2011/11/15/equestrian-hallway/
Beautiful room! Love the ottoman...houndstooth is such a classic fabric design! Your photographs are perfect, I'll have to go visit Etsy and take a look around! :)
Nothing is more fun then having a picture of a cow on your wall. I have one on my wall and everyone always makes a comment about it.
