Wall Collages


I love wall collages, such as this one from Old Brand New. But I have such an aversion to putting holes in my walls. Does anyone else suffer from this? I had less of an issue when I lived in rented spaces. I'd move in and smack stuff up on the walls in the first couple of weeks. As it is, I've been in my house for almost six years now, with various wall hangings propped in corners and stuffed in the back of closets. I hung up a few things when I moved in, but I've barely added to them since then.

It's time I get over it. I've got a large, bare wall in my living room that is screaming for this kind of treatment. Put a nail in the wall, Darcie. There's always spackle and paint later if you want to change it.

Words to live by.

I love wall collages, too! And you're right ... put some holes in the wall. Don't let your fear hold back your creativity.
