Go Boho With Baskets

Modernly You

When it comes to creating a boho eclectic vibe, baskets are the cream of the crop. While a beautiful woven basket can be a great storage solution, a flattened version is perfect for filling up that empty wall space in your living room. Opt for either a single statement basket or a gallery wall with a wide variety of baskets.

A great gallery wall gets us every time, but if you want to add a bit of extra visual interest, try mixing up the frames. Pick all different styles (try a combination of vintage, ornate frames, and sleek modern ones) to create a varied look that adds a lot of texture.

Try Picture Shelves

Home and Spirit

If you are a commitment-phobe, hanging a gallery wall with nails may be too much of a permanent solution for you. Here, picture ledges create a landing to display art that can be easily swapped out on a whim. This is a great choice if you like to frequently change up your look.

We love this simple paint-splattered abstract print, which adds just enough visual interest to this modern living room without feeling overly busy.

Look to the Windows

If your living room has more windows than wall space, you can still add a bit of visual interest by hanging wreaths or dried eucalyptus over the windows. This will add a touch of warmth without blocking the natural light.

Turn Hats Into Decor

We love wall decor that is as useful as it is beautiful. If your living room connects to the entryway, hanging up stylish hats can be a great way to add personality to your room and provide easy access when you head out.

Add Built-Ins

Pure Salt Interiors

One of the most elegant ways to transform an empty wall is by adding built-in units. Built-ins give a room a lot of charm and truly elevate the space. Though this is often a project for a professional, it's well worth the money to take your living room to the next level.
