I have to admit, since purchasing our new Greenwich, Connecticut home I am more and more interested about getting creative with artwork. Art is such an incredible way to give your home a bit of personality and even incorporate some quirky and unique pieces to spice things up. Not to mention, there’s so much interesting art out there – it can be a great conversation starter.
It’s also been such a fun process to pair my modern taste in art with this classically styled home. Finding the art is one thing, but what about finding creative ways to display and hang it throughout your home? Gone are the days of one piece per wall and here to stay are motifs like layered art, gallery walls and even using framing styles to help with the display. If you’re thinking it’s time to step up your art game, and you’re ready to take that leap – here are a few ideas to get you started.
