Emily Norris’ home was featured in the June issue of Style at Home. She used to work in the magazine industry for House and Home and Gardening Life and switched careers to become a realtor.
What makes her home so charming is the art work and photography that fills every room. Whether hung randomly on a wall or on a picture rail, original art adds life and colour to a room.
Love this art wall (and the kids are pretty cute too.) It’s not easy to do it well but Emily has a great eye and the different pieces of art look like they belong together. She replaced the original wrought iron banister with wooden spindles from Habitat for Humanity’s Restore for $50 total – gotta love that!
You an see the rest of her lovely home here.

June 3, 2010I loved this article in Style At Home. I am hoping to use her wall as an inspiration for my stairwell. I did use the bedroom wall as an inspiration for an art wall in my daughter’s room!

June 4, 2010I love the art wall – I agree with you to make different styles of art work well together can be quite challenging but she nailed it!
