When you said what makes you happy , stones and crystals popped in my head then I saw the agate art in your video. I have some beautiful agate slices that would make beautiful art and I can frame it myself . Yaaaaaay
The part about making sure whatever You choose makes you happy really Spoke to me. I always think of decorating things and hoping guests will like it. But that really doesn’t matter. It’s my space and my house and me and my family should be the ones to really like it and if no one else does then it doesn’t matter.
I just finished my art wall in my office. My late father was a miniature artist. My brother and I split his creations. I originally hung them but didn't look right. Then I decided to display pics on floating shelves. Ordered from command thru Amazon stick on wall. Anyway it looks amazing. Everytime I go into my office I think of my Dad. I also inherited all his art supplies which I am now using (took painting class) and having a blast.
Purchased my floating shelves on Amazon and command straps where I affixed on back of floating shelves. I wouldn't place heavy items on shelves. My miniature paintings are light. Hope that helps.
I was looking for nice art to sit on my dresser in my bedroom and got a little overwhelmed. I asked myself what would VALENTINA do?? And headed straight to your channel and to my surprise this was the video I saw!!
Congratulations Valentina Jack and Family, wonderful job, have enjoyed all of your videos, thank you so much for all of your hard work. 100,000 plus is such a great achievement.
You have really inspired me! I am Mother of 10 children.I have one child (21) still home.I'm 65 and you have helped my creative juices flow.I have recently had the color blk.painted in my home ! Who would have thunk it.😊I'm really enjoying myself.Thanks so much🤗
I love your style, I just need to hand you the keys to my house and let you have at it. Also thank you for always sharing links to what you use and recommend
Wow! Awesome video .... so many detailed considerations. Thank you! It helps me better understand why something works or why it doesn’t. I learned so much.
I think I prefer 1 or maybe 2 paintings, but not the idea of a art wall. But I am obsessed with everything you do practically! You are so great I’m just fascinated. I’m happy I stumbled upon your videos. I’m absorbing it all like a sponge. Blessings.
Your final comment, “really meaningful to us”, is your best suggestion about all design and decor, all styles, periods, color, shapes, textures, moods! Applause and accolades for your (Jack & kids, too) hard work & achievement! Stretching towards thousands more!
I finally just finished mine...I'm a bit of a minimalist ordinarily, but not when it come to my art! I allowed myself to do one wall in my home, above our stair case, with all the cool art collected from our travels, as well as made for me by my daughter, and passed down to me by my parents. I am so happy with it!
Gallery walls are making a big comeback. I feel like they went away for awhile. Something to consider. I still want to figure out how to have a family photo wall without it looking cluttered.
Great tips! I have already done all of them in my gallery wall. My husband is a painter/decorator. He hates my gallery wall because I have put fixings into his beautifully painted walls haha. I would love to use those Command hooks but I just don't trust them to hold my frames securely. I love my gallery wall 😊
I did an art wall once with a ballet and pink flowers theme and it was beautiful. Now I don't have a place to put those beautiful pictures until I graduate. Soon!
You helped me be okay with my style. It is a strong masculine feeling. A modern Tuscan design, old world meets 2021. My husband is grateful. 🤎🤍🖤. My colors!
Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers, wooohooo!!!! You have helped me elevate the way I stage my clients homes and decorate my own! Thank you thank you! I love the tips in this video!
What helped me with my art wall was trying to space all frames the same space apart side to side top and bottom I have 3 inches ( or close ) . That is with a variety of shapes and size frames . Doing that gave a flow to the grouping .
CONGRATULATIONS on 100K Subscribers!!!!!! Y'all deserve it so much...I love your videos, and love how you and your husband work so good as a team...I love how funny he is....I am so happy that your channel is getting bigger, but hope you never get so big that you don't have time to interact with your fans...I sure would miss that. Congrats again!!!
My art wall is comprised of photography from travels, architecture and landscapes. I really appreciated and enjoyed looking at them over the course of the pandemic when I missed vacation. As I scrolled through my photos I noticed a common theme, they all have the same color scheme even though they were taken over a ten year period and in different countries. Guess that's just what I was drawn to. TFS all your tips and tricks.
These are such great tips! I can't tell you how many holes I've put in my wall to get the art on my wall right. I have a big supply of spackle on hand at all times.
Can I just say how fresh and lovely your make-up looks today? Really makes your beautiful eyes pop! And I SO agree - pick what makes YOU happy! Also, really love when you include so many inspo photos - for those of us who are visual learners, the images help to nail the concepts. xoxo
Sorry, late to the Valentina Show! We try to always come back with a beautiful art or photo print whenever we travel. Question: is it possible to have too many art walls? Lol. We have one main art wall in the great room, and a smaller one in the dining area.
Have you ever done a video on the artwork you have next to your fireplace? I know you said you made it & I’d like to do one similar & want to see how you did it. Thanks so much!!
Using one big piece of paper or smaller, artwork sizes, to map out where you want to hang things up saves you from putting more holes in the wall than needed. I learned this the hard way!
Such great tips! I've waited to put up all our frames in our new place and living in the space first to inform how I want it to look and feel! Congrats on 100,000!!
That was so interesting and thank your for all of the remarks on different styles and what type of art to hang according to someone’s likes. I live minimally, have a lot of black and white artwork from my trips to antique fairs in London England, and shops in Denmark.
And use the hook & loop Velcro - 0 holes & super secure! Much love from an Aussie who redid our ‘Family Art Wall’ and has just finished patching/painting 16 holes😂 PS Great video as usual Valentina - I have an unhealthy obsession with your handleless coffee mugs☕️❤️
Great tips, it is fun and you make everything approachable, I’m always curious how people will display art they have bought from me and mix with their other pieces. I think unless the piece is pretty large an art wall looks more interesting and cohesive, I often use the art shelves so I can change things around regularly without making holes. It’s a sure way to make your home feel unique and give it depth.
Valentina once again you nailed your subject ha ha Ha I love art on walls my son is an artist so maybe someday I can show you on Instagram my one wall it’s not a hodgepodge it’s done very nicely because I bought frames in but I love to be able to see art on the wall I think it’s so beautiful I am working on another little side of my dining room and I’m going to take some of the tips you gave me today thank you so much once againYou have a blessed day
I just love your videos. What do you suggest for someone who feels like they are all over the place with things they like and can't pin down a certain theme for an art wall? Also, what is the paint color on your steps and banister?
Congratulations! I really enjoy your videos and your chic style. May I ask some advice? We have one wall in our condo (seriously-it’s all windows and doors to other rooms) and I have one large oil painting (which was a gift and absolutely loved); do you think I could create a gallery wall around it? I love art walls and need more “stuff” in my place!
I think scale is really important. Personally, I like when large frames are paired with more large frames but as you can tell from this video anything goes!
I love the images of gallery walls that you selected for this. I have a question about something you mentioned in a previous video about digital downloads and I was wondering if you could recommend the best site you use for this. I am specifically looking for black & white prints from Vogue photographers like Francesco Scavullo, Bruce Weber, Steven Meisel etc. that I can have enlarged for wall art. Any info will be much appreciated. Thanks, Valentina!
of course! Lay out everything you have and see if the ones you have been given fit with what you have also collected. You might need to switch a frame or you might decide some pieces don't work together and you can find another place for them in your home.
Hi Valentina!!!!! Great ideas, I've never put an art wall together, I know it might seem odd, but it's just true, lol!!!!! I always feel more confident and inspired when I watch your utube videos and Instagram too!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Btw, CONGRATULATIONS ON 100K that's so incredible and hopefully just the beginning for you and Jack too!!!! 👏👏🥳💃🏻🕺🏼🍾🥂
I was expecting on kind of “tutorial” or tips on how to hang art wall the right way and what’s the best method in hanging them? Congrats on 100k subs on YT, you deserved it long time ago.
