What's on your walls?

I just changed out the art in our living room- I had a daffodil art piece that I've had forever & loved- but was pretty out of date. I found a fun multicolor canvas on wayfair that both hubby & I liked (and it reminded me of my kayaks in the photos I took of Moraine Lake & had canvases made.) I usually hang photos I've taken or family photos. We also have a "W" wall on our stairway that is W's we've collected over the years. I would love to be a better interior decorator, but I'm just too indecisive on what will look good. lol

I can't see the pics right now, at work, so I will have to come back to look. I remember liking your "W" wall so much that I started buying "S" for my wall. I have about 6 or 7 now, that are sitting in a closet. I will get to it someday, I hope because that is cool.

I am pretty indecisive too, so I just buy it all, gather it up and have my son and DIL come help me hang it. My DIL is really good at arranging things.
 
First let me say that in 1997 when hubby and I bought our first house, he said, "You may not hang anything and put holes in the walls...." I laughed and a month later hosted my first Home Interiors party...lol

We have all kinds of things on the walls....The wall up the steps and upstairs hallway are all family and kid photos.
One wall in the living room is our "Travel" wall... some cute wall art with words, a giant circle canvas globe and photos of us in some of the places we have traveled to.
My other wall in the living room is like a family gallery wall. It has a big clock, my fave Christmas pic of my kiddos when they were little, a wedding photo of us, and some other wall art... some with words.
In the kitchen I have art from Jane Wooster Scott ( one of my fave artists) and yup some more word things from Hobby Lobby.....

I think like, this is my home and I should love it and be comfortable here. I don't care what anyone else thinks.

I can post pics later if you want to see.

Of course I want to see, so post. LOL
 
This is the living room. Sometimes the couch is on this wall instead of the tv.

Sometimes the tv is on this wall in the corner.

This is the downstairs hallway. I do need to update some of these with our most recent Disney trips.

And the step wall.

Love it! This is my kind of decorating.

Almost didn't add these because I noticed how crooked things are, but then thought, what the heck. lol

This is the family room in the basement, hence the family and home theme. I think I tend towards words more than photos, but in my defense, there are not a lot of family photos from back in the day.

We have a little of this a little of that.

In the livingroom we a big wooden piece of art and a small collage frame of family photos on the wall. We don't have a ton of wall space.

I have a gallery wall set up in the kitchen hall, there are words on the walls, LOL!

In the office/game room I have 4 photos on the wall. Most of the pictures in the house are on the big entertainment center we have in the livingroom.

I think a little of this and a little of that is what makes is homey. I have things on the walls, but virtually nothing on the stands in my house because I don't want to have to dust anything. Usually a table has a lamp and a coaster and nothing on the entertainment center except a dish that I drop my keys into. LOL

LOVE your collections and wall art!!!!
 
I have pictures...pictures and more pictures.

I've also hung 12X12 scrapbook page holders on dowels to hang my scrapbook pages like a gallery wall.
 
I have not done as much decorating as I would have otherwise done after meeting my BF last year and knowing his eventual moving in would mean changing the purpose of some of the rooms. I do have foil butterflies, family photos, hexagon corkboard pieces, a drawing of a lion (what my name means), a huge multi-butterfly fabric wall hanging, and a big mirror in the office. The kids have tons of stuff on their walls -- pride flag, abstract paintings, wordy things, calendars, a giant painted world map with animals, etc.

I want a very large graphic-style rose print wallpaper on one of the long sides of the kitchen-living room-dining room + paint the bottom kitchen cabinets apple green (which will become "just" the kitchen and dining room) so that's next on the list and then I can decide what I want to hang on the walls in that space.
 
My main wall in the Living Room is my favorite! It has a Large "L" in the center, then mostly family photos around it and spreading out. There is "home" wall hanging, but the rest are family photos. I have 2 multi photo frames that I switch out. 1 is for Disney Trips and the other is for random photos throughout the year. It's time to update both of these (the Disney ones are from 2019, and the random year ones are from 2020).

Other walls have more "groupings" or "clusters". Think of our scrapbook pages, group some stuff together, mixing colors, photos, artwork that go together, and place them on the wall in a section.
 
Ours is still a work in progress, but this is what we have currently:

Living room - plan is to add family photos on the wall opposite the window. Have the frames, haven't printed photos yet (we've been here a year...)

Dining room - which is attached to Living Room. We went with a blue theme. The Mountains artwork is from a local artist, and a local company built the buffet. The pics of the girls on the wall need to be updated too, hubby put that up on the day we moved in on a nail that the old owner left - I don't like the placement but haven't been bothered enough to move it lol

ETA - this is an old pic. I now have my grandma's old cookbooks on the bottom shelf of the buffet, to go with my grandma's rolling pin there, and the candy tin my other grandma got on her 21st birthday in 1944.
