Gallery Wall DIY Hack: Spray Painting Frames and Mats

We all know custom framing costs a fortune. However, there’s a workaround for this! Design experts agree a gallery wall DIY with spray paint can transform $1 thrifted frames into $50 decor through sheer color consistency. To build a stunning DIY gallery wall, you only need two core components: COLORSHOT painted frames and mats and budget-friendly layout ideas that utilize "negative space," which is the intentional, breathing-room gaps between your art.

Supplies:

#1: White mat being spray painted green. #2: Woman holding up artwork with a papaya, green mat and black frame. #3 Woman hanging framed artwork to gallery wall.

Follow These Steps:

1. Map out your Space:

Map out your gallery wall space with wrapping paper or newspaper.

2. Spray Paint your Mats & Frames:

Lightly sand prior to painting if necessary. Spray paint your frames and mats to add a pop of color. Let dry.

3. Display your Gallery Wall Space:

Hang your frames and enjoy.
