Guest Picks: Like Music to Your Walls
Get your rooms rockin’ with artwork featuring your favorite musicians and bands
I’m no rock star, but I’d sure like to live like one! Rock your space with some iconic music memories and show some love for your favorite artists, past and present. This selection is inspired by some new clients of mine who have an amazing collection of rock ’n’ roll memorabilia. I wanted to add a few pieces to their collection to create a gallery wall, and I found so many incredible pieces online at every price point that I just had to share. — Nicole from Nicole Scott Designs
