Top 4 Metalwork Artists on Etsy

Metalwork adds dimension and variation to any room. It’s fun to mix up flat, framed, artwork by adding something that stands out. Joanna Gaines uses metalwork a lot in her designs and she visits a custom metalworking shop in Texas to make her visions come to life. For those of us who don’t have a metalworking buddy on speed dial, there is Etsy. Etsy has some amazing metalwork artists and each purchase helps to directly support their business. Here’s my take on the top 4 metalwork artists on Etsy.

Link to the shop is here. Link to purchase the Freedom Birds, pictured above, is here.

These metal birds are versatile and can work in any room in your home. They would look lovely soaring towards a cathedral ceiling in a living room or filling empty wall space above a front door.

2. MetalloDecor

Link to shop is here. Link to purchase Peony Flower is here.

This peony would work above a fireplace mantel, or as part of a big gallery wall. The shape and creativity is fine art at its finest. This artist also has a beautiful metal wall organizer for sale that would work great in an office or kitchen. Link for wall organizer is here.

The perfect plant that will never need water or sunlight, these leaves add life to any room. They look great together or separate them and use them in different rooms. I can see them hung in a straight horizontal line above a couch, or in a triangle (as pictured) above a bookshelf.

I love the artist’s combination of wood, metal, shape, and color. These works are big so they’d be great to use above a bed, or in a dining room. She also allows you to choose your wood stain and accent paint colors. This is great so as not to clash with existing hardwood floors or decor.

Small Price Tag ~ Custom Art Work

Gathering of Lines Home Design

Here at Gathering of Lines, I’m all about customizing home decor. While I love mass-produced art prints (and use them in my home), sometimes it’s nice to display artwork that has a meaning or memory that is specific to our family.

The mantel in our living room needed a piece of artwork. I wanted something that had a sense of humor but also captured the love I feel for my family.

My husband took this photo on our family vacation in Washington, D.C. when my son was 18 months old. He was running around the Jefferson Memorial and he got this shot on his iPhone (no fancy camera’s here). Sometimes the best pictures happen in the moment and all you have handy is your iPhone. It’s ok to use what you have!

  • I ordered the print on Shutterfly, size 20″ x 30″ for $18.39 +shipping (note, check out Shutterfly’s home page as they always have promo codes).
  • The frame is from Ikea (link here) size 24″ x 35 ¾” <–This size includes the mat. Your picture size with mat will be: Width: 19 ¾” Height: 27 ½” Since I ordered the 20″ x 30″ print this means that I’ll have 1/8″ overlap on the top/bottom and 1.25″ inches on either side of the print.

All in all, this cost us $42.97. Yet, it has been one of my favorite pieces to look at every day. No expensive photographer, no expensive camera, no expensive custom framing, no posing or special outfit, just a moment from a day of exploring with my husband and my little son that warms my heart.
