Sundays at Home #4: Wall Art

How awkward is this huge blank wall space? It drives me absolutely crazy... You can't see it in this picture but on the left there are some awesome shelves & the right there is a bookcase, both which are decorated. But then in the middle just this boring black space over the TV. I really think we should have probably mounted the TV or something & made it a little higher, but oh well. So anyway, I'm all about saving money... & considering wall art is ridiculously expensive to me, I think I am just going to attempt to design my own wall art. So this Sundays at home post is some inspiration on wall art that I really love. I wish I could say I'm spending this Sunday at home, but I will be working again today! Right now though I am watching some National Geographic haha. I never used to like this channel but then one day the bf & I were watching some "guilly-mots?" dive into the ocean & I've been addicted ever since. 

Sundays at Home #4: Wall Art

That first image is the exact colors basically of our living room...
It's mostly tan with different shades of turquoise & a splash of gold accents.
The living room has a very tiny bit of beachy-ness but it's very tiny
& really means a seahorse candle holder & a pillow with coral on it.
Oh & I have a 2 part painting my friend made of the beach.
So whatever I decide to make, I want it to tie in & mesh with the room not clash.
I'm nervous to see what I come up with... hahhaha hope it's good!

  3. I have two canvases covered with inexpensive fabric above my couch, and I get a lot of compliments! It's really easy to do, and adds just the right touch :)

  5. I love these ideas. In our living room the wall behind our tv is so bare, so these ideas are really going to help!
