Remember, your gallery can be easily be swapped or updated with new favourites whenever you feel like. Stand back, enjoy, and bask in the glory of your creation. Use a spirit level to make sure everything is straight. Measure and mark how much lower down the picture frame you want your nail holes.

Draw lightly on the walls where the top corners of the frames will be. Some people go the whole hog and make themselves paper templates, which will help if you're a first timer! You'll also need a pencil and rubber, a ruler and wall filler in case of mistakes. You'll need nails or picture hooks and a hammer. Experiment with different styles and types of wall art – whether that’s a mixture of bold block colour prints, bright quirky patterns, typography images or your favourite family photos.'ĭo you want neat rows or an organic arrangement? Look at your original photos – do the framed pieces still fit your plan? Do you need to swap anything? When you are happy take another picture. It's all about bringing together your favourite pieces that also showcase your personality. 'Creating a gallery wall doesn’t need to be complex or take hours on end. 'If creating a gallery wall in your home is a job you’ve been putting off for a while, now is your chance to get it done,' says Clare Moreton, photo expert at CEWE.

Instead of using paint or wallpaper for a feature wall, you can do so with a gallery wall, and it can be placed anywhere in your home, although popular areas are often in the hallway, up the staircase or in the living room.

Gallery walls or photo walls have become quite popular over the last few years, providing an easy way to update your interiors, transform bland walls, create a focal point in your home, and bring some character and personality to your living space.

A gallery wall is a curated display of photographs, posters or prints, creatively arranged on a wall using photo frames.
