Creating a gallery wall in your home is an easy yet stylish way to show off your favorite photos, keepsakes, and artwork. Whether you prefer matching black and white frames or a mixture of frames in various textures and sizes, there are plenty of options to match your home's decor.

Gallery walls look great in many places throughout the house, including stairways, above the bed, or in the entryway. The trickiest part of designing a gallery wall is determining the ideal placement of frames. Luckily many gallery wall kits come with templates to help you out.

Also, because picture frames come in various materials—typically plastic or wood—and a plethora of color options, ranging from black to neutral shades to gold, think about which ones will best complement your images or artwork.
