There's only one real rule when choosing wall art: you have to love looking at it every single day. Everything else is just helpful nudges. Here are mine...
Pick by Colour (it's cheaper than redecorating!)
Pick by Size (avoid the 'floating lonely picture look)
Pick by Room
Kitchen - the most neglected room for art! Pop cheerful prints above cabinets or on that awkward narrow wall. Food quotes, florals or anything that makes you smile while burning toast.
Bedroom - your sanctuary. One large calming piece over the bed (eye level when standing). Think misty landscapes, gentle seascapes, or abstract blues/greens. Keep frames simple.
Bathroom - yes, really! Bright, punchy prints for the morning wake-up or serene spa vibes over the bath.
Living Room - the 'wow' room. Go bold: one statement canvas or a full salon-style gallery wall. This is where guests go 'oooh where did you get THAT?'
