So far, I've added some new art over my new dining room table. I'd like to add more down below and obviously in the EMPTY frame. In the meanwhile, I'll be searching for more art... Currently three of the pieces on this wall are from my MadeByGirl Etsy shop. Any suggestions? Any other items I could add? Below is my sofa, (which I moved from my main living room into my family room). I got the two colorful cushions from Pier 1 Import, can you believe that?? They remind me of some of these Anthropologie cushions I wanted, but didn't want to spend $100 for! These were reasonable at $30-$40 each. I will keep updating & posting as I move along.

It all looks great! I really like the pillows on the couch and how inviting everything feels.
you art wall is beautiful. Have you seen Aussie illsutrators mycharliegirl.etsy.com
and
kjsdesign.etsy.com
simply lovely darling! Killer dining table and couch, where did you find such gems?!
Man I love that sofa. I can't wait to redecorate!
Cassius,
Yes, I think I've seen the artwork before...will look at it again, Thanks for the Etsy links. : )
APT #34- I found the dining table at a consignment shop here in Vegas...and the sofa I found at a furniture store, here as well. The sofa is about 3 or 4 years old I think..but I had it covered up so it looks new!!
I like the empty frame. It's always waiting for something 3-d to be placed in it.
I love love love walls filled with artwork. Artwork is for walls, family photos are for counters & shelves.
Those pillows are great! Love it1
Hello Jennifer! Love your blog and your artwork!
I wonder what your dining room art display would look like if arranged in Liza Giles-cluster-style. Check out this gorgeous photo from Elle Decoration (via Decor8).

Looks great! I love the empty frame as is as well.
Jennifer, I'm not sure if it your kind of style but I've just opened an Etsy store selling artwork and prints. If you'd like to take a peek you can find me here: http://ishandchi.etsy.com

Love it! I am in a rental place.. and I can only look longingly at all those frames and artworks on your wall.. I have some prints in my shop I can see up on that wall (might be a little bit biased though).. :)
Hi there!
I LOVE your "I love you blogs and tea" artwork (and the others too of course)! Any chance you'll be adding more of these to your etsy store? Your rooms look great too!

Hi ALLISON,
I've always liked that photo...and the frames. Maybe I'll try that in my family room...I really LOVE the wallpaper touch! Thanks!
Aaaaaaaw it's gorgeous, I love it!!
I was thinking on hanging some Faffi drawings on my wall, I love them, I'll make a post about it later, I think you might like them :)
Comfy looking sofa you have and the dining room is looking nice, too. Feel free to browse my Etsy shop for something, perhaps, to fill that empty frame of yours...
Looks like pieces are coming together spectacularly, nice comfy sofa!
Hi,
I`ve read your blog for a while, and I love it=) Have a nice week =)
looks great!!
Your home is LOVELY! Well done!
great stuff :)
now im inspired to decorate my room!
Gorgeous home, i LOVE your wall of mixed vintage and white frames.
You have won the kreativ blogger award, it's pink and pretty :)
Check out my blog and see!
I think you have done a fabulous job! Love the table and the sofa....the pillows are fantastic...
Happy Monday! xo
I love it! those pillows are quite divine.
so adorable. i love your table & chairs. such cute frames for your artwork too!
x
looks fab...pier 1- wow- those are adorable!
how about a monogram/initial for that empty frame? i have a thing for monongrams/initials...they are all over my house!
loving your 'frame wall'! i like that im not the only one with miss-matched frames for a frame wall- ive been seeing a lot with all the same frames, but i love the organized 'clutter' if you can call it that!
looks fab sister!
oh.. and still ADORING your table/chair set!!
i adore the art wall!
Hi Jennifer,
Love what you did with your wall. since you asked for some suggestions, I have one. I think it's not a bad idea to consider living the empty frame as is and just add a small sculpture in the middle of it. I think it would add something unexpected to your already beautiful display.
I also could use some suggestions on my new bathroom decor I posted today in my blog.
Everything looks fantastic... great eye on finding all the art, pillows, etc + making it work in your space. I think I want my home to look just like yours!
i love your artwork wall!
where do you buy all your frames? i have been having a hard time finding nice 8'10" ones.
oh your home is so gorgeous, it looks perfect to me :)
Your home looks absolutely gorgeous! Keep those photos coming :)
Cheers,
Karen O.
I don't know if it bothers you, but to me that vent up near the ceiling reads as part of the composition and makes it look odd. Maybe that's just me :) If it were me, I would play with either adding one or two more small frames near the ceiling above the main group or adding one at a slightly bigger distance from the group in the lower left. That would help to incorporate (by adding above) or to counterbalance (by adding to the other side) the vent.
Or if you want to leave the grouping alone, the vent would blend in more if you painted it the same color as the wall.
Janelle
so pretty and girlie and inspiring!
loving these changes!
jill
That's a good suggestion to add a small sculpture to the middle of the empty frame. It would look great!
Viv xx
vraiment trop belles ces photos hautes en couleurs et imprimés!!!!
where are each of the pillows from? gorgeous...
Looks great. I bought a bird in a tree print last year from www.isoprint.etsy.com - the colours would work really well with what you've got here.
Thanks Biba... : )
nice of you!
Paisley PEACOCK:
That sounds like a cute idea...I heard a couple other suggestions as well..Will try and see what looks best. I have monogrammed letters arriving soon that spell love - will be placing them on my mantle. :)
JULIE:
Hmmm a sculpture, I never thought of that. I wouldn't know how it would stay up there...u?
GINA: Believe it or not, Most of those frames are bought at WALMART. I figured buying a ton of frames will drain your pockets...so the best thing to do is buy them inexpensive and paint them. I pick out the most ornate looking frames I find...Oh and I bout some at Michael's craft store as well...I think about 4 of them are from Michael's.
JUNE:
Haha I knew someone would mention the VENT.... YES, if course it bothers me. When I get around to it, I'll see if I can manage to find the paint for this wall. Its the paint that came with the home when I bought it....so it may be tough to get the exact color. For now, the vent is in the way...but I will add more frames around it to balance things out. You're right. :) Thanks!
TERRI, the cushions are from Pier 1 Imports...and from an Etsy shop called Feed The Dog- out of Australia.
Thanks Jill, I agree. ; )
Hi Jennifer,
I mean a small sculpture that you could hand on a nail or even a small mirror would do it.
uuuu, those colorful pillows are fabulous! i love them. that's pretty great you got such a deal on them. i definitely would have thought they were from anthro. it's all coming together great. good job!
Where can I find Don't put off your happy life? I love it and need it in my life today
Oh, of course it's always the paint you didn't buy that you need to match...I've been there. How about putting a frame around the vent? That would BLOW MY MIND. :)
Wow! It's looking great! Love the art wall and the new pillows...
JUNE:
Hmmmm the vent is a bit too high I think...will have to re-examine it this weekend and see. Thanks!
Love your quirky style:) The pillows really make the couch.
Jen!! Your blogs and tea print is on the front page at Etsy! Just thought I would let you know, in case you didn't.
MIZ NOVEMBER:
YES! i saw it, thanks for the heads up though. :))))
i love that print! i put it in my blog too. your art wall is shaping up quite nicely =) i love the feminine curves on your dining table and chairs.
your pillow collection is awesome!!! they look great!
tatiana
oh it looks amazing - soft, feminine but fresh and hip too!! well done...love your art work and the dining room chairs are gorgeous...a magazine should feature your home for sure!
Oooh, so unbelievably pretty! <3
I fell in love, very deeply, with that flowery cushion with the reindeer 'head/horns'(?) on it, that lies on the couch!
Have you made it yourself or did you buy it?
LOVE,
Mila.
HELLO MILA:
I love that cushion too! Its by 'Feed The Dog' Etsy shop out of Australia...they are fantastic!

Hello Naomi,
I bought this table at a consignment shop near my home here in Nevada. They have a ton of cool items....and they sell them for much cheaper than reg. furniture shops. PLUS you can negotiate on the price a bit.... : )
Hola Jennifer!!
Me gusta mucho la mesa del salón, es muy bonita.
Saludos.
Hello Jennifer!!
Sorry, but my english is very bad.
I love salon table, is very beatiful.
greetings.
Inma.
