Any chance to put them in larger frames? If not, I'd stack them.

BTW, love your dining room. Gorgeous color and molding.

Yes, to everything nosoccermom just said!

Your dining room is lovely. Enjoy the titivating, just don't over do it. Stack your pictures a little further apart.

Beautiful room! Yes to stacking the two.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll do the stacking and look for another option for the other wall. What about something structural, like a few decorative dishes? Or, would the room feel more balanced if I stuck with framed photos on the other side?

I love your dining room, and the artwork above the buffet.

I like them stacked, but I think they are too narrow, and should fill out the wall space more. Are they already framed? If not, you could put a wide mat and/or frame on them. You could also frame to photographs together, it will save on framing costs and lessen the business.

These are 7.5" paintings framed out to 16" wide. I have them both framed individually, and framed together.

Here they are side by side, which of course fills up the width but then there is a large vertical space (they would be mounted higher, of course):

I have considered leaving it blank. I was originally thinking the small pictures on each side would be a nice subtle accent, but the size just isn't right for that.

Your room is beautiful. I would not add the art until you have some curtains.

I wasn't sure if I would add curtains. I was planning on it at first, but many people have discouraged me since it would cover up the pretty molding.

Mazel Tov, your room is very nice! I think they are a tad too small for the proposed space though...

Your over all look is very crisp and fresh. How are the acoustics? I would need something to soften things a bit, and dampen the sound of flatware against dishes.

You have done a fabulous job! I think curtains would look great and soften the space. I would hang them high.

Your room is lovely. I second the curtain panel suggestion. The molding is pretty and you can still enjoy seeing it around the door frame and the top of the window. Have you considered having the prints re-matted to fit a larger, standard frame? It might fill the space a bit and still allow you to use your prints.

My suggestion is to use the Command hooks for pictures. They really do come off without damaging the wall. Of course your paint will have to be cured well first. That way you can put them up and move them if you don't like the look. They come with at least two attachments for each hook and they do sell packages of replacement sticky attachments.

Love this room so much! I would not add curtains/panels (would "muddy" the crisp, clean look IMO), but would definitely add a beautiful rug under the table.

Thanks for the feedback! So much for my "quick" solution to get this finished. That's ok. I'm glad I didn't put holes in the walls yet!

arcy - the acoustics are great. Maybe because it is a small room? I get bothered by too much noise and I don't feel like it is a problem.

Such a nice room

I wouldn't put up the photographs or curtains..not for now.. If in doubt-wait. Room seems feeling very accomplished to me right now..:) I bet it will let you know when it needs something

(To me it says, with quiet dignity: "If you really want to gift me that amazing runner you saw, you can, of course..:))

Your room is beautiful. Nature themed photographic art is a very good choice to make the room less "sterile". Regarding the framing, IMO, the single vertical frame with 2 photos looks too wide for the space (cramped on the right side). Hanging 2 separate frames vertically looks too narrow for the space a't nd hanging them horizontally side by side is like putting a panorama or a wall that needs more something taller to look right on the wall. Artwork above the buffet is definitely too low, doesn't seem a good match with the room or the other images. The right art and good track lighting on it would make the room.

Photographic art is my area of expertise, so my suggestion(s) are: 1. A single vertical frame for the 2 prints that is a few inches narrower; or 2. Consider hanging the 2 frames one above the other but offset - to give more vertical presence as well as more width - that will fill the space better; or 3. Hang these 2 somewhere else and get 1 image about 3x the size of these and frame it to look proportionally right on this wall; or 4.Get 2 more prints and do a grouping of 4 framed prints.

Love your wall color and paneling. Tossing in an idea, the idea of a darker mat on the smaller pieces might be worth playing with. Going for a bit more of a dark-on-dark layered look could work in that room, rich but calm, less sprightly. In this particular case, pretty as the white is, more blending and less leaping visually might just make the existing sizes work better. and possibly even the room look a bit larger. In fact, I'd be surprised if it didn't.

Regarding how high to hang them, I always feel strongly that art should be right for viewing when sitting at the table, secondarily acceptable viewing from other areas. I worried about that, but it just seemed to work itself out once the table and chairs were brought in to establish what was appropriate.

Love everything you have done so far! Would you mind telling me what color are your walls I am looking for that color for my dining room.
