A pretty gallery wall is one of the chicest ways to adorn your space. But switching it up *every* season? That can be a lot to tackle. If you’re looking for a fresh way to bring fall into your home without completely overhauling your existing artwork, select a couple statement pieces to focus your arrangement around or add a festive accent, like a garland. On this week’s edition of Decor Resolutions, we’ll give you some new ideas on how to update your gallery wall with a few seasonal additions. Scroll down to see how we’d style a gallery wall for a boho-chic space, a minimalist abode and the preppy home.
A boho-chic gallery wall is *all* about those nature vibes. Think: animal busts, mini framed bugs and leaf prints. One of the trending color palettes this fall is forest green, so pick pieces that complement each other, but aren’t too matchy-matchy. Peachy pinks and gold look stunning together and ensure you can throw up anything, from a rose gold swan to an abstract floral painting.

HOW TO DECORATE A MINIMALIST GALLERY WALL
Sometimes the best color palette is a monochromatic one. For a modern and pared-down look, go for black and white artwork, slim frames and simple graphics. Bring in those seasonal vibes with moon-phase artwork or even a faux neon moon slice. You could even hang a black cat print for a cheeky bit of decor that’s appropriate long past Halloween.

HOW TO DECORATE A PREPPY GALLERY WALL
Take a cue from fall’s changing colors and incorporate more dusty pinks into your gallery wall with a new painting or feathery juju hat. Bring a burst of seasonal decor onto your wall with a bold black taxidermy deer, brush-tastic floral paintings and some quirky photographs. Black graphics and pale pink accents? It doesn’t get more on point than that.

It can be intimidating to step out on your own and build a business from the ground up. As part of our collaboration with Office Depot, we're talking with Selfmade alum and solopreneur Colette Lawrence, the faith-based motivator and relationship builder behind The M.E.E. Movement, about ways in which women in business can find success.
B + C: How did you know M.E.E. Movement was your business to start?
The M.E.E Movement represents motivation, empowerment, and encouragement for women. It is what represents me. I did not know at first that it was my business to start, but then the thought of monetizing what I loved came to me. It scared me, however. I registered the business in July 2020 and have been slowly building my wings since.
B + C: What's one strategy that's helped you start your business?
Thinking through and researching what the requirements are to start my business, and then asking questions of people who are in the business. Not all advice worked; however, it helped me to figure out what I needed to do and not to do.
B + C: Did you always know life coaching would be your entrepreneurial path?
(Smiles) No, I did not. I 'stumbled" on it. I knew that people were always coming to me for advice and I found that I loved having conversations with them, especially with women, young and old.
B + C: What was your most valuable takeaway from Selfmade?
My most valuable takeaway was the first day of training: Get out of your own way. There were a lot of great moments and important takeaways from every presenter. However, getting out of my own way, pushing past doubts, was for me my most valuable takeaway. Doing something that I had never done before took courage. If I do not focus on what is happening with me mentally then I cannot deliver to my clients successfully.
B + C: What's one piece of advice you would give to female entrepreneurs on the brink of starting?
Get out of your head. You have something to offer. You have what you need to succeed so go ahead and do it.
B + C: How do you stay motivated?
I stay motivated by listening to music and listening to motivational speakers, and sometimes someone will just reach out and talk about the impact that I made in their life. That adds the extra juice or sauce I need to pummel through the day.
B + C: What's your best organizational tip?
Keep a diary and journal. It's the best way for me to keep organized and it also provides a source motivation as I record not only my "losses" but my wins as well.
B + C: Who inspires you in the entrepreneurial space?
Shirley Toliver – She motivates and empowers and makes me always want to show up.
B + C: What has receiving the Office Depot scholarship to Selfmade done to help you start or grow your business?
The scholarship was a blessing in that all the areas that were covered offered valuable information that I needed, from social media to HR. As a new business owner, I needed to know this to increase my own personal awareness in what it takes to run a successful business. The candidness of the presenters made it easy to see myself in their shoes and helped me to realize that I can also get there.
