Favorite Pairings: Thoughtful Touches to Complement the Art
When I’m choosing artwork for a space—or gifting it to someone I love—I always think about the details that help it feel complete. The pieces that quietly elevate the moment. The things that make art feel lived-in, personal, and intentional.
Below are a few of my favorite pairings—objects I genuinely love and use, and that work beautifully alongside original art and fine art prints. These are simple, thoughtful additions that help turn a gift into a small experience.
Frames and Stands That Let the Art Breathe
A good frame doesn’t compete with the artwork—it gives it space to shine. I tend to gravitate toward clean lines, warm woods, and soft neutrals that complement color and texture without overpowering them.
These are frames I love for gifting prints or styling shelves and walls in a way that feels relaxed and collected rather than formal. Framing isn’t the only consideration when displaying art. These are several options for displaying your art when hanging on the wall isn’t an option or desired.

Acrylic Easel Display - This simple elegant acrylic stands is also perfect to use for artwork when you don’t want to hang on the wall or prefer displaying on a table or shelf.
Vessels + Florals
Art and nature have always gone hand in hand for me. A simple vase—ceramic, glass, or stone—paired with fresh or dried florals adds warmth and softness to any space.
Lifelike Real Touch Faux Hydrangea Flower ~ I just love these flowers. I have them in my living room and bathroom. I also use them when I am photographing artwork.
Beautiful glass vessel candle ~ this elegant candle pairs so nicely with a painting on a bookshelf or coffee table.
Cozy, Everyday Details
Candles, linen napkins, small trays, or a thoughtfully chosen book—these are the finishing touches that make a space feel welcoming. They also make lovely accompaniments when gifting artwork, turning it into something that feels both beautiful and usable.
These are the kinds of items that encourage slowing down and enjoying the moment—something I always hope my art invites as well.
Why These Pairings Matter
I believe art doesn’t have to live in isolation or wait for the “perfect” moment. It belongs in everyday life—hung, styled, gifted, and enjoyed alongside the objects we already love.
These favorite pairings are simply meant to support that idea: thoughtful pieces that enhance the art without distracting from it.
