My Own Hollywood Hall Of Fame

Our downstairs gallery wall was in need of a refresh. We had to remove part of the wall and replace it due to the earth falling behind it after a particularly heavy storm, see here. We removed all the photographs and pictures so that we could get it repaired. I knew I wanted to refresh the gallery with new photos and pictures as it had been like that for several years and I just felt it needed something different.

I just couldn't find the motivation or inspiration to rearrange and change for a while, so the wall lay empty with the pictures and photos lying around since the wall was repaired back in January.

I absolutely love anything mid-20th century Hollywood, the classic Hollywood, particularly from the 1940's, 50's and 60's, my favourites being, Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and of course Elvis. So I had a look through the internet to see if I could find any good photos of them that I could print off and frame for the downstairs gallery wall, I also cut pictures out of magazines, not everyone's cup of tea but I like it. 

We started putting the pictures up on 18th April 2024. There is some more space on that wall to fill up, but I will do that as I come across photos or pictures that I like.

It turned out just as I had imagined, and I love it!

You go through most of your life with family photos on show but I wanted something very different now that I am in my mid 50's, I wanted something for me, don't get me wrong, I still have family photos on the other side of the gallery wall and some throughout the house.

I will be keeping my eyes peeled for more beautiful pictures of my favourite stars to showcase on this gallery wall.
