Artfully Displayed...

Last night I met with a friend to help her figure out the design for her new apartment. This is her first apartment on her own and she can't wait to infuse some of her style into the empty space.

My friend has this incredible collection of water color artwork from St Kitts artist, Kate Spencer. The colors and beachy feeling in her work are the inspiration behind the apartment design. I've been doing a little research this morning, trying to figure out how to incorporate these in a fun way in her new space. Here are a few ideas...

 Postcards artfully displayed with colored masking tape... 

Postcards become the show stopping centerpiece over a table...

Classic style...

With a long wall, this would be perfect for a large collection of artwork...

No hanging required when artwork is displayed on a bookshelf...
