Thrifty Thursday: Picture wall!

Last week I demolished our picture wall, well, not the actual WALL, just the pictures. I painted some silver frames black and changed out some pictures and found a few other things around the house that I could add to the wall to make it nicer/better/more awesome/sweet/etc.
Now while I would love for my wall to look like this:

Or this:

This is what I ended up with (and it's much better...in my opinion....than it was last week):

I have a couple things I want to add, but I'm not sure yet where to put them.

So, now that that is crossed off my list of things to get done before the birthday party (this weekend!) all that's left is the cleaning....hooray.....(tons of enthusiasm there, I'm sure you noticed).

Thanks for stopping by!
