Travel Wall

One of the main complaints I had about our apartment was the limited wall space. But in my town home I have 4 HUGE walls and I’ve been struggling with how to decorate each of them. I love to travel and every time I do, there is a camera strapped to me at all times. So I wanted a cool way to display some of my favorite photos in the house. The wall connected to the stairwell was the perfect spot  because of it’s asymmetric shape and the narrow pathway to the kitchen.

One of the struggles  I had originally was the color pallet, since the pictures were on display in a main living area of the house, I needed to keep the colors cohesive and I knew that wouldn’t be possible, but at the same time I didn’t want black and white. I had seen others on Pinterest and Instagram where people take down the saturation of their photos to where they are practically black and white but still leaving a little color.  I loved this idea and incorporated this into my wall. For most of the photos, I dropped the saturation down to -67.

I fond the perfect frames at Target but they were gold instead of black, since I wanted them to match with the rod iron stair well, I spray painted them black (it only took two coats).
