I've never done a gallery wall, and I really wanted to start small with one above my desk.
I shopped my house I found these pretty pink vintage style pictures.
This mirror came from my Mum. It belonged to my Nana, who passed away a few years back, she received it as a gift just after they immigrated to Australia from Ireland in the early 50's. It was the first thing she had here that wasn't an "essential" item.
I also added a cork board I had covered in fabric gifted Heather at The Beating Hearth had sent me & my corset key hooks, aka the boobs.
DIY Delight or Disaster? I like it, I'm not sure if I ticked all the home decorator boxes with it, but it's making me happy so it doesn't matter if it's wrong. Shopping the home, mine and Mum's total win, delight. Oh and more on my new computer desk tomorrow.
Thanks for reading,
Mel xo
Mel, I love your gallery wall! So pretty and that mirror is so special. Funny to think of a mirror as non-essential. I spy a beautiful chair in that picture!
ReplyDeleteYour gallery wall is beautiful, Mel! In fact, the whole vignette is so lovely and very feminine! What a great put together look!
ReplyDeleteI like it ! Main thing is that it makes you happy, Mel :-) Love the mirror, btw !
ReplyDeleteDelight! I like the chair too. And I love that you have your gram's mirror!
ReplyDeleteI looks great Mel! How wonderful to have your Nana's mirror. I love the touches of pink.
ReplyDeleteOh my heaven. Mel, your craft room looks AMAZING. I love the gallery wall you put together. That mirror is fantastic and made even more fantastic by its history and the story behind it. What a beautiful room you have so thoughtfully put together.
ReplyDeleteDeeeeeelight. That mirror is great.
ReplyDeleteAwww. :) Well, I think it looks beautiful and I love the sentimentality of the things you've chosen. Ummmm...I do notice that a VERY VERY VERY small hexi quilt is not hanging up there yet...;) Your craft room is just great! You might inspire me to try and do something with mine.
ReplyDeleteI love all of it, Mel! You did a great job pulling everything together.
ReplyDeleteOh I love it - the pink and white looks lovely! The mirror is such a pretty touch to your fab gallery wall - well done! xx
ReplyDeleteThat mirror is so elegant, I could see why it was considered a non-essential, and it fits right in with the rest of your gallery wall. Your Mel style is really showing through. Love the pink, white and airy feeling. Looking forward to more reveals!
ReplyDeleteI love it, I so need a girlie space like this in my house of all these boys .. lol
