The easiest way to make seasonal art feel intentional is to repeat a few colors and vary the frame sizes. Black-and-white cut files keep the artwork cohesive even when every frame is different.
HGTV’s Halloween gallery-wall projects use inexpensive frames and dimensional details to make one larger display. Here, the look is softened with antique gold, dusty pink, cream paper, and small velvet accents.
What you’ll need
- Five to nine thrifted frames in mixed sizes
- Black, cream, dusty rose, and antique-gold craft paint
- Printed witch designs or cut vinyl silhouettes
- Cardstock, scrapbook paper, or book-page copies
- Removable picture-hanging strips
- Optional velvet ribbon and tiny faux flowers
How to make it
- 1
Choose one anchor piece
Select the largest witch portrait as the center or place it slightly off-center for a relaxed, collected look.
- 2
Unify the frames
Paint roughly half the frames antique gold, a few plum or black, and leave one or two natural for depth.
- 3
Prepare the artwork
Print designs on cream cardstock or cut black vinyl and apply it to pale paper, glass, or thin acrylic.
- 4
Add quiet filler pieces
Mix in a pressed leaf, small bat, moon, handwritten spell-card joke, or piece of patterned paper.
- 5
Test the arrangement on the floor
Keep two to three inches between frames and balance dark pieces across the whole composition.
- 6
Hang without the guesswork
Trace frames on kraft paper, tape the paper shapes to the wall, then install removable strips in those positions.
Ways to make it yours
Use cream, sage, brass, pressed botanicals, and tiny bows.
Choose black lacquer, blush velvet, gold frames, and pearl details.
Mix ornate frames, smoky purple paper, moons, and dramatic witch portraits.
