I love Easter for so many reasons but mainly because it signifies my great hope. Because of this, I wanted to share one of my favorite walls in my house: the cross wall in my den. I was inspired to begin a cross wall when I saw one at a friend’s house many years ago.
My Inspiration
Shortly after I got married we started our cross wall with our first cross. Though small, it has grown over the years and now holds a very special place in my heart.
My husband has traveled all over the world and at times I have had the privilege of getting to go with him. Many of the crosses on my wall are from places like Albania, China, Australia, Italy, Mexico, England and more. Kent is extremely thoughtful and would always try and find me a special cross when he was away.
My Cross Wall
I have helped several friends create their own cross wall at their homes. One idea I had was to use a large frame and place the crosses inside of the frame. The below picture is one that my mom and I did at her house.
What is special about your house? Do you have any decorating ideas that you would like to share? Send us pictures of what has inspired your designs.
Michelle, I love your cross wall! I have a very small version of a cross wall!! I love it!!
Also, my sweet sister-in-law Molly hand painted a plate for me with a cross, and it says “Your love Oh Lord reaches to the Heavens… Your Faithfulness reaches to the Skies” It is a true reminder that God will never leave us, nor forsake us!! Hallelujah!! Easter Blessings to you & yours!! <3
I was literally talking to Keeley TONIGHT about changing my cross wall and putting a “frame” around it. So nice to get some creative affirmation from your blog pic
I’m starting a small cross wall in the new baby girl’s nursery (I’ve received quite a few as gifts)…any special advice for arrangement? One thing I’ve noticed about both pictures above is the crosses are pretty close together…I think that might be a secret to the look…do you just add to your wall as they come or do you every so often take them down and rearrange? Thanks Michelle!!
