6. Design a Gallery Wall

A gallery wall is one of the easiest ways to add personality to a space without spending much. Mix framed photos, prints, quotes, and even mirrors or wall hangings to create visual interest.

Thrift stores often have affordable frames that you can repaint or distress for a cohesive look. Lay out the frames on the floor first to experiment with different arrangements before hanging them on the wall.

Tip: Choose a consistent frame color or style to keep the wall from looking cluttered, and use a mix of small and large pieces for balance.
