5 gallery wall ideas to inspire you

From artwork and vintage photo prints, to plants, mirrors and other trinkets, there are absolutely no rules when it comes to designing your own gallery wall. But, to help to give you a bit of inspiration to run with, here are some gallery wall ideas that we’re absolutely loving right now.

1. Staircase gallery wall

The staircase tends to be an overlooked area of the home, so a few bits of artwork can really help to give it a bit of character. Combine cool neon prints from Ink and Drop with quotes, artwork and mirrors to open the space out – and take advantage of the large area of unbroken wall to really go to town with your gallery ideas.

2. Photo gallery wall

Make your gallery all about the family by incorporating photos of your loved ones with maps, postcards and other cute trinkets from your adventures together.

And, for a unique twist on a photo gallery wall, print all your photos in black and white and use colourful frames to make the images really pop.

3. Baby room gallery

Creating a gallery in your baby’s nursery is a super cute way to brighten up the room (especially if it’s neutral colours) as well as keeping your little one engaged. As well as some cute prints, why not hang some fun items in their bedroom for him/her to look at, touch and feel. Furry animal heads always make for a trendy twist on a child-friendly gallery wall, or you could even turn their toys into art by nestling them in wall-hung baskets or on shelves.

4. Ceramic wall art

Gallery wall don’t just have to mean artwork; if you have some idle plates that are just too pretty to eat off get them out of that dusty cabinet and use them to create a unique wall design in your kitchen, living room, or dining room.

Ceramic plates are perfect around the fireplace, or hanging in the kitchen – just make sure that you use some strong, secure wire to attach them to the wall.

5. Mix prints with wall plants

Houseplants are massively on-trend right now, but they don’t just look cute, they can do wonders for your health and well-being too. Incorporate some into your gallery by hanging them directly on the wall using embroided baskets, or use shelves to display bigger houseplants to give your room a splash of colour… just remember to water them!
