I have been determined to somehow get a gallery wall somewhere in my house. With so many windows on our main floor there really is not a lot of wall space and I definitely didn't have anywhere for it down there. So I finally decided it had to be upstairs somewhere but had a hard time deciding just where. The actual hallway was way too long and intimidating, so I started with the smaller wall, at the very top of the stairs. It ended up being the perfect size.
This really was quite the project and took me more hours than I anticipated, but part of that is due to my indecisiveness and slow-to-complete project pace. I am really happy with the final product though and am loving it each time I go upstairs.
The price breakdown wasn't too bad either.
Frames: $18 - Most of the frames are from the D.I. (besides 2 that were from TJ)
Spray Paint: $0 - I used what I already had.
Vinyl W: $8 - I ordered it on etsy and had to buy a couple sizes to make sure one of them worked.
Prints: $2.50
Total: $ 28.50
I am still hoping to buy some sort of print for the center square frame, but that can wait.

Our D.I. must suck because I've been trying to find frames like that for months. I love it! Very good project.

Chelsea, I am so impressed. Seriously. It looks awesome! And as I was looking at the pictures, I was thinking about how I couldn't afford to do that...and then I saw how much it cost you...and I was really impressed.
You've inspired me. I may try to copy and paste this on my wall (with different pics of course). looks awesome!
