The 35 framed antique images of George Washington in Victoria's (The Queen Vee) new cottage in Utah. This photo was posted on Instagram where she is known as @queenv47 and she mentioned it in a recent comment on my blog. It took her 5 hours to hang this arrangement and I think she did a good job, don't you? It's always fun to see the efforts of someone you know, even a virtual friend! Two thumbs up, Victoria. xo

to me, the important thing in a collection like this is to not line up the edges of any frames. Good job. Queen V.
Fun. This works so much better than the grouping you shared on May 19th. It pulls you in (well, if we were lucky enough to be standing in the Queen's house), rather than looking cluttered and confusing. There's enough variety in frames to provide interest and enough similarity in type and size to give it a sense of unity. And not having them line up keeps you from following the imaginary grid lines. Instead, you're pulled into the pictures themselves. A wonderful decorating lesson. Thanks for sharing it, Victoria.
Rosemary, you have me blushing, to be highlighted on your blog is an honor indeed as you have such a keene discerning eye. Thank you my dear for a Rosemary shout out. We are slowly getting settled after a bit of a set back with hubby health issues. Just finished up a marathon deck, pergola, patio building project and a full on landscaping installation. Now the trick is to keep everything growing, water is the key in a desert state and so we are grateful for a full irrigation installation also.
Linda Sand, I think I lined up a few edges and since hanging this grouping I've moved a few up or down a wee bit to resolve that. A LOT of ladder climbing up and then climbing down followed by a walk up steps to the main floor to see how it actually looked. A side benefit, I was able to skip the gym that day. I attempted to lay it all out on the floor before hanging them up but after putting up the center back row I realized my plan wasn't going to work so I just winged it after that.
We all love the Georges at the Queen's house!
This is really remarkable! I love looking at the "art" of it!
