Whether you’re simply over the gallery wall or are just looking to fill some wall space, we’ve got a low-budget solution for you. Because while buying a huge print sounds easy, we promise this DIY trick is even easier—and much less expensive. Simply choose one of your favorite, high resolution photos and turn it into an oversized, tiled piece of art.

Warning: You will need Photoshop (or another photo editing software) to complete this project. That’s the only hard part—the rest is like a cut and paste craft you mastered many (many) years ago. For detailed instructions, visit A Beautiful Mess.
