Finding the right size for your canvas print can make a big difference in your space. If it is too small, the artwork may get lost on the wall, and if it’s too large, it can overwhelm the room. I’m here to help you choose the perfect size to match your home’s style!
Here’s how to get started:
Measure your wall space
Start by measuring the height and width of the wall where you want to hang your print. This helps you understand the available space. Remember to leave some room around the edges for a clean look!
Consider furniture proportions
The artwork displayed above a sofa or bed should be about two-thirds the width of the furniture. This creates balance and enhances the space without making it feel crowded.
Visualise with templates
If you’re unsure about a specific size, cut a piece of paper or cardboard to that size and tape it to the wall. This will allow you to see how it looks and whether it fits your vision before you buy.
Think about the viewing distance
For larger prints, ensure there’s enough space for viewers to see the details. Choose medium or smaller prints in smaller rooms to avoid cramming the space.
Create a gallery wall
If you’re not ready for a large piece, consider grouping smaller prints to make a gallery wall. This allows you to mix styles and sizes, keeping your décor interesting.
Vertical vs. horizontal orientation
Vertical prints can make a space feel taller, while horizontal prints create a sense of width. Choose the orientation that fits the mood you want in the room!
Don’t be afraid to experiment
There are no strict rules when it comes to art! If something speaks to you, go for it. Bold choices can add a personal touch and character to your space.
With many sizes and styles available, you’ll find something that fits well—whether for a cosy corner or a spacious living room. Ready to start decorating? Explore my collection today and create a space you’ll love!
