How to Display Artwork in the Home September 11, 2017
Thank you to Minted for sponsoring today’s post!
I’ve had so many questions about the artwork you’ve seen around our home that I thought I’d share a little bit about how I display them with you! It’s funny because I never had artwork in our home before this, but I love the sophistication it gives any home. Here’s a few tips on How to Display Artwork in the Home, and what pieces you can find around our house!
How to Display Artwork in the Home
Above the mantle. I love the statement this one large piece of artwork from Minted makes above the mantle in our home. If the piece is large enough, it can stand on it’s own. I love how soothing this print from Minted is to look at, and it fits perfect in our little coastal cottage.

Layered. If the artwork is not the particular size you’d like, you can layer it to expand it’s size and add a little texture. For example, I used these old vintage shutters to make this gorgeous photo of sandy steps in San Francisco look larger than it is.

On shelving. I love adding some shelving to the walls as another form of display. These adorable shelves from Minted were perfect for our playroom because I can feature the kid’s artwork too! Perfect for a playroom or kid’s room! I kept the print simple above it, featuring this Off Duty print with a beach vibe, as well as a letter board.

In a gallery wall. This is actually my least favorite way, but is obviously a very popular one. I love small gallery walls, but not an expansive space unless it’s done correctly. I’m not a fan of when there’s TOO many things to look at, so my suggestion is keeping gallery walls minimal and free of “clutter.” I actually don’t have any in my home at this point, but a quick Pinterest search will help you out! Just remember less is more. 🙂
Minted is my go to for artwork and prints of all kinds because of the wide variety they offer!
What’s your favorite way to display artwork in your home?
Hi Lauren! I’ve loved “The Pacific” print for so long and am finally taking the plunge to get it. Did you get the 30×40? Just curious. Thanks!
