Add Vinyl To Gallery Wall

Add Vinyl To Gallery Wall

Hey guys! It is McKenzie from Girl Loves Glam here! Gallery walls are all over blogland. It seems like they are filling up my feed on Pinterest everyday too. I mean, what isn't there to love? A bunch of fun picture frames full of pictures and sayings that you can drool over? Well, I did an organization gallery wall in my office last month. You can find it here. I really liked it, but I felt like it needed a little more flair and personality. That is where the vinyl comes in...

I love how it all turned out. The vinyl added just the right amount of color to the space. I love using vinyl for projects like this because it is an easy way to participate in a trend without any major commitments. Right now, arrows are really popular, so I added a bunch of arrows to my gallery wall. This is what it looked like before I added them.

It is nice, but I felt like it needed a little something more. To add a little flair to your gallery wall, this is what you need...

* Vinyl

*Vinyl cutter

*Shapes to cut out

(Silhouette File: 13 Arrows) #21890

(Silhouette File: 3-pc Chevron Arrow Set) #34194

First, I found the shapes that I wanted to use. I got all of my arrows from the Silhouette store. I love all of the different designs that these shapes come with.

I loaded my arrow images onto the Silhouette Studio. I right clicked on the image with all of the arrows on it and broke apart the image so that I could grab individual arrows.

I chose two different arrows that I wanted to cut out in red and sized them to the size that I wanted them to be and cut them out.

Next, I moved onto the arrows that I wanted to be gray. I sized them to fit my space and cut them out.

Then, I broke apart the chevron arrows to get the arrow I wanted to use.

I used it and one of the arrows from the other shape pack for the yellow vinyl. I sized them to the size I needed and cut them out.

Putting the vinyl on was really easy because there weren't several layers or anything to work with. I just peeled them off like a sticker and stuck them onto the wall. Nothing too complicated. For the chevron, I already had these cut out and they were in my scrap pile, but they fit in perfectly.

I am really happy with how it all turned out! I think my favorite part is my sign that says "I'm kind of a big deal on my blog" with an arrow pointing to a framed business card of mine.

Adding vinyl to a gallery wall is not only easy, but it is a great way to bring some trend into your space without breaking the bank! To see another way that I added vinyl to a smaller vignette area, check out my baby's nursery here.
