In this post we will discuss how to display wall art using 1, 2, and 3 pieces of wall art for your home. The first step is deciding which wall we want to use as your canvas. From there, we will pick the images you want for your wall and start to create the look and feel you want for your home.
Location of your Artwork:
Artwork is there to add personality, emotions, and balance to your home. It is important to give some thought to the placement so it adds to your home and not detract. I would suggest placing your artwork over the sofa, bed, fireplace, table, desk, or any wall you are ready to spruce up. Remember you can also place artwork on a desk, table, or shelves.
Artwork over the sofa:
The sofa in your living room, play room, or Florida room makes a great focal point for wall art.
Artwork over the bed, table or desk:
Another idea is using a bed, table, or desk as the focal point of various rooms. Having a beautiful piece of artwork in the room can add some pizzazz to your room.
Artwork over the fireplace:
When you walk into a room with a fireplace it already creates a great focal spot in the room. Why not add more charisma to the room by artwork hanging on the fireplace or placing the artwork directly on the mantle.
Artwork on your desk, table, or shelves:
Another idea is having table top pieces of artwork of the ones you love on your desk, table, or shelves.
Working with 2 pieces of wall art:
You can have your wall art side by side, stacked on top of each other, or staggered. Here are some examples below:
Working with 3 pieces of wall art:
You can have your wall art side by side, stacked on top of each other, or staggered. You can have your arrangement symmetrically placed or asymmetrically placed. Another idea is having a central theme to your images or have them vary for some contrast. For example, you could have all bold and bright colored images, muted colors with bright colored images, or a mixture of black and white with colored imagery. It is entirely up to you.
