Gallery Wall

I got this idea when I saw a Free Printables for Gallery Walls pin on while scrolling through my feed. Now I, as I'm sure many of you do, I LOVE me some free printables, and decided to take a look. While scrolling through I, of course, decided that I needed to make a gallery wall somewhere in my apartment. Don't know where it's gonna go, but what does it matter, right? Any who, I picked my favorites 15 (I know its a lot) and found a picture of the Nashville skyline to remind me of home. Now these pictures just SAT in my downloads folder for a LONG time before I touched them again because, well, I didn't know where to start. Now I do:P

What you need:

• Your favorite prints
• Frames for said prints in varying sizes, colors, and/or shapes

Let's get started:

1. First you must find your prints. As I said before I got most of mine from this article, and there are many more linked on that page. You just have to do some digging.
2. DO NOT PRINT THEM. Just save them on your computer, or on a flash drive until you get the next few steps done.
3. Aquire your frames. (Most of mine I got from my mom and Michael's (the store)).
4. Measure the wall space you have for the gallery and mark that on the surface you are designing. (I will have a full/double bed so I measured out 5 feet so I would have about 5 inches between the gallery and the edge of the bed)
5. Arrange the frames on the floor, or other flat surface, into the design you want. 
6. Decide which prints you want to go in which frame and edit them so you are able to fit them in the frame.
7. NOW you may print the printables.
8. Place them in the correct frames.
9. Hang.
10. Enjoy!!
11. OPTIONAL STORING IDEA:
• I am taking these to the apartment with me at the end of the summer, so they will be sitting in storage for a while. In order to remember what order I put them in, I did this:
1. Take a picture of the finished design with the prints inside them.
2. Print said picture
3. Put the whole project in one box with the photo of the design on the top.
4. Put in storage.
