suggestions please!!

I have no clue what to put on this big wall. I have the couch like that to seperate the room a bit, the front door is in the area back there, directly across from the big wall. I've thought of putting a huge family picture on it, but I don't want one really big. To center anything on that wall, the lamps will be right in front of it. My wall color is a light sage green, couches are tan and wooden furniture is brown. I like the color of the lamp shades and I think I'll use that as an accent color. They are more of a burgandy, which isn't showing up in the pic.

Any suggestions? Thanks so much!

You have lots of options! Just remember to keep things to scale. I love the look of large clocks, they are functional and a great space filler. I have a large clock above my fireplace and another in my dining room and love them both! When I looked at your pic, the first thing that popped into my head is artwork - specifically poppies!! Poppy prints are very easy to find right now, here are a couple that I love!

 

You mentioned a large family photo...but you wouldn't have to do overly large, a better fit might be to take 6 or so 5x7 prints matted and framed in matching (or coordinating) frames and hung in 2 symetrical rows on the wall.

Another option, that I am a fan of, is floating shelves. They are perfect in a space like this.

I think that I'd put family pictures on the wall in a grouping.

I love that second poppy print!!!  It's so pretty!

I like the grouping of famly photos.  Maybe I'll do something like that for now since I have lots of pictures floating around.

Thanks girls!

Quoting dusky_rose:

I think that I'd put family pictures on the wall in a grouping.

 I like that idea as well!

I would continue with what you've done, and break it into 2 areas.   On the entry side, I'd put a mirror.   On the couch side I'd do a gallery wall with family pix.
