So...I kinda disappeared for a month or so.. at least from the blog world. I've barely kept up with reading my favorite blogs, much less write posts of my own.
A great deal has changed in the past month, with a job change, a new relationship, and many changes around the apartment! All good things... I promise.
I got a little behind trying to keep up with the project schedule I gave myself (starting here), especially with all the traveling I did to visit various family as they came down south to visit and get away from all the snow they are getting up north.
One of my first major projects was to finally get on the gallery wall for my Master Bedroom. Now this formally blank wall looks like this!
I didn't take a photo of the blank wall... it was kinda boring if you can imagine ;)
It was a fairly simple process. Using this method, I started with making paper templates for the frames I wanted to use (and came up with a basic formation by laying them out on the living room floor.)
Then taping them up on the wall....
After hanging all the templates (and moving a few things around since the wall was longer than I had arranged them for) I hung the frames and it looked like this
I decided against those two smaller frames in the lower left corner (and the larger square frame I planned to purchase for where the template was still taped up) and just leave the gallery for the upper part of the wall for now. I may fill the whole wall later, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.
Not all the frames are filled (and that one side ways one is still waiting for some kind of replacement for the really out dated photo it has now.) but I've added a few things!
Like our "tribute" to McGuire's
I'll have studio updates next week as well as a laundry room update and more Master bedroom details!
