Hallway Help!! Do these even work together?

10 years ago

Hi, so I found these 2 canvas pieces today, im not sure if they work with the existing framed images? How would you dress this space? Are these okay together? Any ideas?

I can go return them if they dont work.

    I think they work. :)

    No. They compete with each other and they don't coordinate with the other art.

    Is this an entry point of home? If so, a nice mirror might be better fit.

    No, this leads into the kitchen and dining room. I like the idea of a mirror!

    I would consider a round mirror instead.

    Is that grasscloth? If so I wouldn't put anything there.

    If you just glance at them, it looks like you bought 2 of the same thing.

    They are much too close together. If you want to stack them, you need a higher ceiling; they look crowded.

    And the fact that the design is so indistinct that you can hang them any side up drives me nuts--it's a sure sign that they are mass market, designed to maximize sales.

    HI -- I really like the way they look with the wall paper but a bit too big in that spot . Can you put them where the two dark framed pictures are ? Then just have a single décor object on the end wall like a ceramic animal head or a gold candle sconce .

    They came as a set of 2, I will most likely return these as Ive been trying them everywhere in the house to no avail. Yes it is grasscloth. What is your feeling about the other framed images? Are they good there? Here are some more closeups and different placement. Also there is usually a lot more light, but it looks darker because the recessed light bulbs need to be replaced.

    They look like landscapes to me.make sure the sky is on the top :)

    Haha of course! Any other ideas and opinions?

    Sometimes less is more. I love the grasscloth, let it be the star. The prints are okay, but just two, you don't need four.

    You have a lot of beige/brown in that space. Consider adding some bold texture and cooler colors in there. Check out my artwork here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/shoagallery Many sizes and colors available.

    Some suggestions below. Enjoy decorating!

    I say a long mirror..

    Another decorative mirror vote.

  • 10 years ago

    I vote for nothing on that short wall. Less is more. Let the grass cloth speak for itself.

    Sunshine, I like these two paintings in the hall , side by side. They are soft and serene ; a lovely match to your wallpaper. A decorative mirror on the smaller wall might look nice.

    Both canvases should be horizontal. They look beautiful on the grass cloth.

    I agree with lynartist; they look best side by side where the other pictures were. They look so nice against the grass cloth.

    A nice decorative metal piece would be beautiful if you're not 100% on the mirror option. the metal accent would be decorative, but allow the wall to not look so heavy with all the artwork on both sides. Plus, it would enhance that grass cloth wallpaper really nicely!

    The first top picture turn it for 180 degree
    So the light strip is at the top

    kind of bland but they are okay. I would paint the trim in-between the same dark green as the door. separate it, give it some pop. easy fix

  • 10 years ago

    Thanks for the advice everyone!! Paint the chair rail the same green as the other room?

    Go back to your original idea and don't overthink it. Trust your intuition and don't paint the chair rail.

    simple pretty long mirror vote!!!

    frameless beveled mirror as the art you have competes with the darker art on the adjacent wall. Perhaps something like the smaller mirror rectangle mirror in this photo which is naturally not small. I own the larger it's simple yet lovely.
