Layering art and appreciating smaller pieces
I think so many folks only think about their walls when they are looking to buy original art. And this is fine if you only want big, showcase pieces. However! You are missing out on adding depth to your space. Smaller pieces often are less expensive and are just as much a conversation starter as that larger piece you’ve been eyeballing. And yes, small stuff can go on the wall, but you’ll make a bigger impact with it by layering those smaller pieces of artwork in with other fun stuff on top of a dresser, nightstand or buffet. A great formula used here at All About Looks is a large mirror leaned against the wall, perfectly coordinated sketch staggered over that, then small pieces in front. Think candles, small frames, decorative boxes… Really anything you love that will add some visual interest. And the other great thing? These smaller pieces are easier to find a new home for when you’re ready to switch things up. Hang it on the wall! Try it out on another piece of furniture! You open up lots of opportunities with these small scale pieces and it will make your home look like it was designed by a professional.
