Okay, so this month I'm taking on a project that should've been done over 2 years ago when we moved into our house: hanging pictures and art on the walls. The reason I haven't done it yet is because I'm partly lazy (yes it's true) and incredibly indecisive. Art is a very personal thing and means something different to everyone, and I want my house to be able to "say" something about me, our family, our life, etc. There are just way too variables involved cluttering my creative process: which ones should go in which room? should I make a grouping? how should I group them; in a pattern, a line, or at random? should the frames match? does it matter if they don't? and most importantly, which photos/artwork to display?

So without further ado, here are the befores.

Living room. This pathetic arrangement is so boring it hurts. It's getting changed.


Eating area. I think I've decided what's going here... but knowing me, I'll likely change my mind another 14 times before committing to something.


Piano... nook? Haha. Not sure if this will stay, I think I just need to arrange some things on the shelf to make it more interesting.


Back entry. This room needs help in a bad way. I love the cheerful color, but it needs something. Being greeted by a lonely freezer isn't exactly what I have in mind for guests.




So there you have it. Hopefully 31 days is enough time!!
