Do you have an art collection? Maybe that sounds a too formal, do you have a collection of creative or memorable pieces that you would like to display? Do you have a bunch of beautiful art prints lying around but you’re not sure how to display them? It can be photos, a well-designed postcard, or a piece you bought at an art show, an Etsy purchase, or a masterpiece by a cute 5-year-old you know. Maybe you could use the art as a way to display your beliefs. With this Buddha Wall Art, Awakening Visions has allowed people to display their belifs of universal oneness. Either way, it’s always nice to have them up for everyone to see rather than stored away in a drawer somewhere. Displaying your pieces always makes them feel more special, regardless of their value.
Here’s my wall of art. There’s one big vintage-inspired piece that I actually found at a home decor liquidation store (sorry, it’s not a more interesting story) but it’s mostly a bunch of small pieces. My collection includes pieces from art shows in the park, Etsy, greeting cards I saved, gifts from friends, 3D art, embroidery, thrift store finds, design geek prints, my own silkscreen print, photo booth moments and vintage mailbox stickers. A little bit about my screen print for anyone who is wondering. It was actually quite easy to do, and I did it from home as I have my own screen-printer. I often use it to create funky T-shirts now! I searched high and low for the best screen printing machine for me and it’s certainly paid off. If you’re really crafty, it’s something I would suggest you invest in. Additionally, I love my huge collection of thank you cards (it’s nice to feel appreciated, don’t you think?). You never know when mailbox decals may come in handy!
It’s really a completely random collection that I’ve made work together. It’s hard to give instruction or tips on this style because it’s just about having an eye for mixing and matching.

But I’ve found a ton of great inspiration that’s a little more specific to help you dust off your pieces and pull them together and put them up on display for everyone to see.
I hope these great spaces inspired you. Don’t be intimidated. In fact, if you see something here you like, I say copy it! It will never be exactly the same because what’s in the frames will always be personal.
