Stacked artwork




I have been seeing a lot of great examples of stacked artwork lately and I really love the personal feel that it seems to give to the spaces.  Many of them are living areas but it seems to work over the bed too.  I love the mix of sizes and mediums for something that feels truly eclectic.   It is just a little bit different from the art collage that we typically see in the way that many of these collections reach the ceiling, which is fun and different.  I am thinking of adding to some of my collages in my own home to get this feeling  and to keep up those photos that I just don't want to hide away.

Love all of these collages! I have put so much away trying to do LESS IS MORE! There is a warmth that More is More when done right!
Loved this simple little post Christina!

Love the first image but I agree with you I like how it personalizes a space.

I love the gallery effect that stacked art creates... so full of beauty. I have a 'stack' of art sitting against a wall waiting to be hung in a stacked arrangement... and this post has given me some great ideas and inspiration. Thanks so much for sharing and have a great day!

I really love these salon-style arrangements of art. I'm a photographer - and a collector - and apartments in France are small so this is how I do it, too! A winning solution. (This is a great collection of eclectic examples.)

I love gallery walls like these. We have two in our house and they're some of my very favorite things. Plus, they're ridiculously fun to put together.

Very, very pretty. I love the ticking on the chair. Great twist on a classic.
