After our living room tour many of you asked for tips on making your very own Instagram wall! This method is perfect for instagram (or any square) photos and polaroids. Mine is not permanent because we are planning to put our home on the market in the near future. The method I used is perfect for renters or anyone uncomfortable with making lots of holes in the wall. Another method would be to mount your photos onto a large board or frame that can move to your next space with you. Here's how I put my wall together, it was a one evening project…
First, use a piece of painters tape to mark a level base for your collage on your wall. You can measure from the floor on each side to make sure it's level. This is also a good way to visually test where you want your collage to begin before adhering any photos.
I used painters tape as the adhesive to make hang all my photos. I used 4 pieces of rolled tape on each photo to adhere every corner to the wall It's more sturdy than scotch tape, but won't damage a painted wall. My display has been up for a few months now and a few photos have curled up, but none have fallen from the wall. I used pieces of tape to measure the space between each photo. The most important things to remember when making a grid collage is that the outer edges need to be very straight and the spacing on the inside should be consistent. Using the tape to space each photo made it super easy to be consistent!
I hope this has been helpful! Have fun hanging a special photo display in your space. xo. elsie

Definitely stealing this idea when my boyfriend and I move in together. Did you print out the instagram pics yourself or get them at cvs or something?

I just got married and I have pretty much mimicked your entire apartment! But 1 question-How do you print out Instagram Photos? I don’t have a photo printer 🙁 Could you do it at Target?
What size were all of the pictures?
How exactly did you get your pictures to be perfect squares? I can’t print most of my pictures because I put them on instagram and delete the originals. Which, I shouldn’t. Lol.
I love this blog! This is a great idea for wall decor, do you have any suggestions for the best place to have instagram photos printed?
Hi!
I found this a long time ago, and made it for my dining room wall–my dining room just happens to be yellow too! I love it, I enjoy looking at all the pictures every day and I’ve gotten so many compliments from guests. I just got into blogging myself and remembered your project so I wanted to come back and say Thank you! for the inspiration!
Just browsed along – really love it! So many people doing such great creative art.
Have a great day,
