Now let's look at where we began in the voice studio.
Let me refresh your memory on a couple of items that are making their appearance on the gallery wall.
These little lovelies that I bought at Goodwill for a song, reworked into their lovely whiteness found their way to the gallery wall. Can you spot them?
This picture was taken back in my performing days. The role was Sweet Sue in Sugar based off of Some Like it Hot.
Here is one of the frames that I painted white. The picture is a snapshot of the doors surrounded by limestone leading into the chapel where we got married.

Home Goods mirror I picked up on sale for $20.00.
The Reis embroidery is my Great Aunt's last name. She was an awesome woman who encouraged me to reach for the stars, but work hard to get there. The picture frame with me and the Hubby, I got at Home Goods for $2.00. Yeah, I picked up all they had.
Recognize the frame? This is one of my Goodwill goodies.
One of our wedding gifts.
Toodles,

I just love your gallery wall! I think I either have a collage of photos or mirrors in every room. It's a great look. :)

Great post. I enjoyed getting to know you a little bit with your gallery wall. You sound like an amazing woman with strong women who led the way in your background. Your daughter is a lucky little woman to grow up with you showing her the way! Thanks for stopping by, I enjoyed the visit!
ReplyDeleteI love it! All the memories you have up there are great. Very inspiring. I'm your newest follower. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's so fab! I love love love the overall shape of it, great job!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I love how everything centers on the mirror. The smaller frame you painted with the chapel door in it looks just link an Ikea frame that I have and I was sure that's what it was when I saw it in the linky party. You'd never know it was repurposed! Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh wow this turned out beautifully! The home goods find might be my favourite! Love it all though :)

I love all the different sizes, shapes, colors and textures of your gallery wall. We are contemplating doing one on a wall that needs an update..Maybe that will be a good project for this winter!
ReplyDeleteLooks good! I hung a gallery wall in my hallway and it took me forever! I don’t know about you, but it took me a long time to decide on the layout. And now I’m adding to it, so I’m hoarding frames for gallery wall round 2!
ReplyDeleteKathryn- thank you so much for putting Katherine's button in your sidebar.
ReplyDeleteThat means the world to me!
I have a gallery wall on my list-
you've inspired me!

I love the wall Kathryn, and I can't believe how many gorgeous frames you were able to find and refinish. They really make the wall look special. I particularly like that cute little shelf! No I don't have a gallery wall, but you've got me thinking! Your approach of getting a bunch of frames first is the best way of approaching this project. I would have gathered all the images together first and then been frustrated that I had no frames!
ReplyDeleteI love it - it turned out great! I have been wanting to do a gallery wall, but haven't yet. It is on my to do list. Great job!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this! I'm want to do something similar for my hallway - I've just got a giant personalised picture from my parents to kick-start it!
ReplyDeleteSo jealous that you managed to get that ornate frame so cheap! Every one I look at is so expensive!

It looks great! And now I have major door envy. How gorgeous is that door in your painted frame?
ReplyDeleteLove your wall, it turned out so nice..
ReplyDeleteLOVE it! All the different sizes, shapes and colors blend so seemlessly! You did wonderful, tired or not! :)
ReplyDeletelove it! one of the best gallery walls i've seen!

Oh my goodness, this is SO impressive! I love the amount of thought & effort that went into it. So much love, and it shows! Perfect, really! Thanks so much for sharing this @ Show & Share!
ReplyDeleteI think your gallery wall is just fabulous! I especially love the "sing" plaque! Glad I found you:") God bless x
ReplyDeleteWhat great finds --- thank you so much for linking!
ReplyDeleteOne of the first things I notice when I visit a friend's house is the state of the walls. I personally dislike plain white walls (I don't live in a prison cell, after all), and am interested in how people choose to decorate theirs. I sometimes come away with a new idea for my own house, which I then try to incorporate as soon as possible.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link to your awesome wall gallery. I have just pinned it to add to my inspiration. I love all the different elements.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cool, eclectic gallery wall. I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous collection of frames! :)

Aha. I left your blog after sending you an email. Then discovered the reason I might not have been able to post this comment. Came back to your blog and my comment is still here, waiting to be posted. So, I'll try posting it. I think I did this the last time I was by your blog. Go figure!
ReplyDeleteDropping in by way of Liz's Time Travel Thursdays. Haven't been by in quite a while - blog still looks great!
Love your wall - I know what you mean about moving things, hammering things and all that but it worked out beautifully! Love all the different goodies included on your wall. And the various angles/mirrors, etc., you used in photographing it. All very nicely done! Kudos! (Now rest?)
Thanks, Jenn
