Gallery Wall Finally Completed!

So after completely thinking out this wall... Then having my son knock down every frame in reach.... deciding to apply Velcro... and so far that's lasting... here we are.

I was inspired by Young House Love to create this.
I am obsessed with their blog... you should honestly run over there and check it out.
When we do purchase a home... my husband may want to block their website from our computer.

So here it is... after working on this for entirely too long!



Maddux's first artwork he brought home :)


For whatever reason this is insanely blurry and grainy but its the only full wall shot I had on my camera.


Our wedding lyrics ...

The city we met in.... The city we were engaged in... The city we were married in :)

A bird because I liked it
and one of our favorite places to spend our summers...Go Cubs!



Our Nala Wall Art.... I love this!

This is a photo of Jers parents that I have always LOVED. That's his mom in the middle his dad on the drums.

Recent Spring pictures... maddy, us with maddy, and our Christmas card with that adorable looking kid on it :)

A vintage map of Ohio.... our first family vacation

This fortune... because it makes me laugh. Still

Our engagement photo... and a cute print we picked up on Etsy


Then of course... we have the Maddux Silhouette... his 6 month close up... the butterfly art I made under the fortune cookie... and i think that sums it up

I want to add a few more touches like the bird... but that will be added as we come across it. So that might take some time... for now its complete... and I really love how it turned out. This wall makes me happy...
