A personalized Mother’s Day gift is the perfect way to show her how much she’s adored. That’s where our gallery wall idea comes in. A gallery wall is not just about decoration — it’s about telling a story. Her story. This deeply personal Mother’s Day gift is sure to fill her heart (and home) with joy. Here’s how you can put together a gallery wall that Mom will love for years to come.
1. Collect moments, not just pictures
Dive into old photo albums, request pictures from family members, and even scan in black and white photos. Don’t overlook the seemingly mundane moments in your camera roll — often, they hold the most warmth and magic. Remember, it’s the spectrum of life we’re aiming to depict here: the joy, the growth, the changes, and the constants.
2. Think about the story you want to tell
With all your ‘chapters’ at hand, decide on the storytelling flow. Perhaps start with Mom’s childhood at one end, progressing towards the wedding to your latest family travels. Or maybe, you want to go for a gallery wall that captures a Mother’s Day theme — like three generations of women in the family.
Top tip: You don’t have to frame just photos — scan in your handwritten letters or use our text editor to type out her favorite poem!
3. Think about the arrangement
Use our 30″ x 40″ canvas print as your focal point and arrange our smaller 10″ x 8″ , 10 x 10″, and 12″ x 16″ canvases around it to create harmony. When you print and frame your photos with us, you can choose from our black, white and oak frames. Whether you’re looking for something sleek and modern, ornately vintage, or a cozy rustic appeal, we’ve got you covered.
A Gift That Grows
The beauty of a gallery wall is that it’s never really ‘finished.’ It can evolve and grow over time. Encourage Mom to add new pieces as she pleases, be it from her own discoveries or as future gifts from you.
Top tip: Mix and match framed canvas prints, canvas prints, photo tiles — and metal prints for a modern touch!
