Open Frame Wall Gallery From Thrifted Frames
Have you ever found amazing frames; but the glass is missing or you have nothing to put in it? You can easily create a beautiful collage of open frames on your wall! It's super easy and such a pretty statement!
Open frames are pretty easy to find at thrift stores and yard sales. You can also remove the glass from frames; and just use the frame. These are just a few of the frames I used for my gallery wall.
I personally love vintage wood frames, with decorative scrolls. Those can be hard to find at times. I have been lucky enough to find a few.
decide on a paint color you want your frames to be. I wanted mine to be an antique white; so I used House and Canvas chalk paint, in the color Champagne.
If you are going for a pop of color, there are lots of options out there!
once you have your paint color picked out, it's time to paint away!
I just used small nails to hang the frames. I didn't include any hardware to hang them; I just placed the frames directly on the nail.
How you arrange your frames is completely up to you! This is an example of one side of my gallery wall. I added little cutout silhouettes to represent my family and such.
***I would suggest laying your frames out on the floor, and arranging them, before nailing in the wall. It will give you an idea as to how it will look.***
this is the other side of the gallery wall. Like I said, you can arrange, and add as many frames as your heart desires!

I absolutely love this corner frames, ladder, white on white, and the chair cover! By the way what did you use for the chair cover? I now have a great idea for a similar corner in my house! 😊
