How to Style a Joyful Gallery Wall (That Looks Curated—Not Cluttered)

“This pink sofa and gallery wall combo? I gasped when I first saw it. The colors, the personality, the unapologetic joy. Here’s how to steal the look—no interior designer (or big budget) required.”

Hero Hack – Use 3 Step Gallery Wall Formula

1. Stick to a Color Palette
Choose 2–3 dominant colors to repeat across your art and frames. In this case, it’s blush pink, sunny yellow, and mossy green. These tones connect otherwise unrelated art styles into a cohesive wall.

2. Vary Sizes and Shapes
Start with 1–2 large anchor pieces, then fill in with mid-size and smaller frames. Add in one unexpected shape (like a round or squiggle-edged frame) to give it that editorial edge.

3. Add Layers of Personality
Include pieces that make you smile—like a handwritten quote, a vintage print, or your favorite album art. The goal isn’t perfection. It’s a wall that tells your story.
