Statement Art For The Breakfast Area

Sometimes walls are hard to decorate, at least for me. I love all those fabulous gallery walls that are so popular now – –

but they just aren’t what I think is right for the breakfast room wall.

This space is only 9 ft. wide, so there isn’t room for a buffet on the wall behind the table,

however – – –

the wall does scream for something of importance.

I love mirrors and I have this really great round one that I thought could work in the breakfast area. It turned out it was ok, but not sure – –

As I was walking through our bedroom, I saw a beautiful outdoor canyon/meadow scene painting that I have had for years and years. It is huge and was just filling space on one wall in our bedroom.

Not a focal point and not really part of that rooms decor,

it was the only wall space I had big enough to hold it.

This is a really large painting – 3 1/2 x 4 1/2. It hung on our family room wall in our previous home. That wall had huge vaulted ceilings and needed something large.

This breakfast area has 9 1/2 ft. ceilings, so a large piece of art would work.

Since the horse painting is part of this same room,

a pastoral scene fits – – –

Now as far as the painting goes, I like it for a change,

but you know things don’t stay the same around here for long,

so it might change again any day.

I can always put the mirror back or my praying man painting. (BTW, I hung the praying man next to the china cabinet in the dining area. Looks fabulous there.)
