One of my favorite things to do in my free time (what is that?) is decorate my apartment. As much as I love going out to eat, seeing friends, and going to events around town, I will never get tired of a relaxing night at home and a home cooked meal followed by a movie with TJ and Colbie. I’ve wanted to completely redecorate our living room for quite some time since it never really had a solid theme or color scheme going on. As you look through these photos, you’ll see a new gallery wall I created with Minted framed art, a whole lot of white and grey, with a bunch of pops of blue.
As I was trying to create an image in my head of what I wanted to hang on the wall above the couch, I thought about a few options: 1. 3 huge pieces of art work in a line, 2. all black and white photos in huge square frames with two rows of three, or 3. a gallery wall of various artwork that inspired me. While browsing the options that Minted offered, I immediately went with option 3 and began selecting prints that each spoke to my nature-loving soul! Water, pines, beaches, and flowers in soft colors to match the grey and white decor became the theme of this gallery wall.
The next apartment project will be making a little tiny (and I mean, tiny!) dining room area. We have an island with stools in the kitchen but no dining area currently. What are some of your favorite places to buy home decor? Leave a note in the comments!
I hope y’all have a great weekend! I’m headed on an 11 hour long road trip this morning at 3:00am. Follow along on snapchat (shelbslv) to see where we’re going. Hint: It’s a little chillier than NC!
So jealous of this space! Love the color scheme. I get super into decorating too and have been working on a gallery wall for a while now. Yours looks amazing!
So pretty gal! Loving all the blues. I am in desperate need of a living room update.

Do you remember the paint color you used on the walls?
I wish I knew but I actually live in an apartment and it is just the paint they used before we moved in! I will see if I can try and figure it out!
