      just a quick note I wasn’t being sarcastic or a know-it-all, I promise I just am really curious as to why they needed to be dropped down such a short distance I use an I- phone exclusively (meaning I don’t see the larger versions of all the images on a computer so I can only say that when hanging picture & mirrors etc it is very easy important not to hang them too high ! it most certainly is much newer to have them a little lower than ever before, only exception I’ve seen to that I have been able to see is hanging over a fireplace it’s just naturally going to be higherP.S. You’re doing an amazing job on a budget K. & I bet it’s for (2) reasons (1) your heart is in it meaning you enjoy all the creativity of the hunt the savings & the satisfaction of discovering your own personal style & you love doing it for your family, I see so much of me in you what I mean by that is that I can tell you I can’t remember a time when I didn’t already know pretty much exactly what I liked, but I to had to start out on a budget but can you believe that when I was where you are I had two little ones I was working full time & thrift stores (at least as far as I knew back then,?late 60’s & eary 70’s did not even exist ? Or maybe they did & I just didn’t know about them & & besides if they did exist they would have pretty much been a taboo in other words people would have been ashamed to admit they bought something from one of those what a wonderful glorious time to be starting out for you young folks just starting out

    Hi Kristen, I would recommend furniture touch up markers to fill in the scratches on your end tables. They work great on all wood scratches and knicks on picture frames, tables, dressers, etc. and come in a variety pack of different colors. You can find them on Amazon. Hope this helps. I really enjoy your channel. 😊

    The gallery wall turned out beautifully ! I know if something feels off, I won't be satisfied til its fixed. Also I have a thrift shop that sells large art books for $5.00 each. Picasso, Monet, Rubens, various artist, painters and themes. They make such great wall art. I just got one that is all birds nests!!!!! Can't wait to frame some and get them up. Maybe a gallery wall of all nests!!!!!

    I love your idea of taking prints from a book and putting them in frames never thought about doing that. I also love how you balanced out each of the frames based on the 2 inch line, based on shapes, sizes, and starting with the frames in the middle to align the bottom and sides of the middle frames into a side ways L shape before moving onto the outer layer

    I love Leah, been following her for a long time. Do NOT underestimate you talent, style and personality…oh my goodness…love you just as much! You two are well matched for this collaboration!

    A tip,I found to work is use masking tape to put where the nails will go.
    You have some beautiful pics.
    Your gallery wall turned out amazing!👏 I honestly thought you raised them due to head room while sitting on the sofa. Lol idk why but I always think a mirror looks good in the center when doing a gallery wall with a mirror, however yours looks like it's in the perfect spot. 😁
    (I would've never thought mixing winter & floral scenes next to each other? 🤔)

      You know, it may not have been the best idea to mix flowers and a winter scene!

    Exact same thing happened to me I had to move everything and added three more art pieces and now I think it looks awkward but I will have to get used to it for now, it’s a lot of work! Yours turned out beautiful!

      That's the great thing about decor... you can always change it over time!
