Sustainable Scandinavian Gallery Wall from Poster Store & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #235

August 10, 2021 / 68 Comments

When it comes to interior design and home decor, I am the absolute worst. It’s not that I don’t have an eye for things that are aesthetically pleasing. And I definitely have the ability to create magnificent color and print combinations…in my wardrobe. But when it comes time to decorate my home, I simply get too overwhelmed with the available choices that I end up doing nothing at all. Enter Poster Store with their extensive collection of beautiful prints on sustainably produced high quality paper and their selection of gorgeous wood and metal frames in a variety of sizes to fit any poster that they offer. When Poster Store reached out to me for a collaboration, I knew right away that I wanted to create a gallery wall in my living room with nature posters incorporating some meaningful quotes into the mix. 

Speaking of that feeling of overwhelm, Poster Store has such a huge variety of styles and genres in their print collection that I did start to panic a little when I agreed to work with them. How on earth was I going to narrow down my choices and pick just the right number of posters as well as sizes to create a professional looking gallery wall? Thankfully, their website is super easy to narrow your choices by genre, color, layout, and size. I also enlisted the help of my husband in choosing the prints we loved to create our stunning wall display. 

We are both very much inspired by nature and the astonishing beauty that you can find all around if you just pay attention and really look. So nature was the obvious theme for helping to narrow down our selection. 

After measuring the space where we wanted to create our gallery wall, we decided on four 12 x 16 prints, two animal posters and two landscape posters. We also added two 8 x 12 prints with inspiring quotes and two 5 x 7 quote prints for the end table that is situated directly beneath the gallery wall. I chose walnut frames for the prints that would be hanging on the wall and black wooden frames for the smaller table top prints. In hindsight, I should have chosen all walnut frames but I initially intended to hang the 5 x 7 prints in my cloffice and the black matched the frames of my degrees hanging over my desk. I may still move them to that wall space and off of the tabletop since all of my table surfaces get overrun with kid stuff every time I turn around!

Once our posters and frames were delivered, I assembled them each in their corresponding frames. I was very impressed with the quality of the posters and the frames. As soon as I removed the plastic covering from the frames, my nose was met with the most incredible fresh wood scent. And both sides of the glass were covered in plastic film to prevent scratching or other damage during transit.

Now let’s look at my gallery of wall art upon completion. Thanks so much to my husband for doing all of the measuring and hanging for me (you know, the tedious stuff).

Whenever I look at my new gallery of wall art, I find a sense of peace and calmness wash over me. The brown bear is my favorite one. There is something really special and calming about this magnificent creature taking time to bask in the glory of the nature that surrounds it, feeds it, and comforts it. If only we could all be more like the brown bear in our respect for nature and the environment. I doubt they take advantage of this planet in the same destructive way that we humans do. Thankfully, companies like the Poster Store are making great strides in minimizing the environmental damage caused by production of all things desired by humans.

The Scandinavian designs offered by Poster Store are not only beautiful and sustainable, but very affordable as well.
