Botanical Wall Art Home Decor Ideas.

Framed botanical prints are a beautiful and classic choice for the entryway, living room and dining room wall decor.

If you have a big wall space to decorate, create a dramatic wall gallery using a set of similar botanical prints can deliver a stunning visual impact that reflect your personal interest, style and taste.

With affordable unframed botanical prints from our Gnosis Picture Archive Etsy shop as shown below, updating your living space is simple to achieve without breaking the bank.

Look for affordable frames that include mats at stores like Target,  Michael's and Ikea. For the prints featured below, the ideal size frames are 11x14" frames with 8x10" mat openings.

With each new season, the prints can easily be swapped out to match seasonal decorating styles and moods to keep things interesting and fresh!

Below are examples of how you can arrange a wall gallery using illustrations of ferns, summer citrus fruits, tropical orchids, garden hummingbirds and colorful flowering cactus.

Red Poppies Wall Art Prints:

Great Wall Decor choice for Memorial Day, Remembrance Day (Poppy Day)
A bit of history relating to Red Poppies:
In 1915, inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields,” Moina Michael, an American professor and humanitarian who conceived the idea of using poppies as a symbol of remembrance, replied with her own poem:

We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.

Bird Eggs Home Decor For Easter!

Spring is finally here! As I take a nice little jog through the park, I can hear baby birds chirping in the bushes.  The warm morning sunlight on my skin feels like a brand new experience, the cool spring breeze on my cheeks feels like a child's kiss, and the smell of freshly cut grass makes me want to roll down a grassy slope. Spring is definitely my favorite season! I wish I could capture the essence of this beautiful spring day and bring it indoors with me...

Then I think of the wonderful natural history art prints in my collection that I can indeed put up on my wall in my dining room to celebrate this magical season!

Here are some ideas for spring decorating, especially for Easter, which is just around the corner!

Hello and welcome to the Gnosis Picture Archive Blog!

I'm Daphne H, proud owner of Gnosis Picture Archive Etsy shop. My husband David and I  (and occasionally our kids help ) are very fortunate to have finally found something we can work on together without straggling each other in the process...hehe..just kidding...we do get along and agree on most things...most of the time.... after 25 years of marriage...honest! ;).

We happily spend most of our work hours digitally restoring pre- 19th century antique botanical and natural history illustrations and we are so happy to offer reproduction prints based on these illustrations in our Etsy shop. So far we have restored very interesting illustrations of ferns, parrots, flowering cacti, butterflies, sea coral, octopus and squids! I am very passionate about botanical prints, sea shells, whales, sea turtles, humming birds etc.  Eggs and bird nests are my personal favorites so I'll have to sweet talk David into agreement of course!

This is a screen shot of our little shop. You are very welcome to stop by and see what we have been busy working on lately. http://www.gnosispicturearchive.etsy.com

 
I would like to use this blog space to post our latest products as well as offer some helpful tips for our customers on how to frame the prints, what sizes frames are suitable, easy ways to hang multiple frames on a wall in a grid etc.
 
It might take me a while to get to all the articles I want to post on this blog though, since school is just starting and we have 4 boys in school who run us both ragged with shopping for school supplies, filling out endless forms and permission slips from their classes etc.
 
Ahh.. so much to do and so little time...but life is happiest when there is family chaos!
Daphne H.
