I'm arranging my new bedroom and want some art to pull together the MCM look. Everything i find online is the same boho/abstract prints - I like those, too, but I want something a bit more unique to really help the room feel like me and lived in.
What are some other kinds of MCM art? Whether it be sculptural or 2D. Something that would help pull other elements together to solidify a room as MCM.

Suggestions for Mid Century Triptych or Artwork
The metal art that was done in the early seventies is a great look for something different and can be found at a very reasonable price at the moment. I see the price skyrocketing any time soon.If you are into wallpaper, Spoonflower has some really great mid century prints.Its really easy to hang. I like starburst wall clocks,groupings of paint by numbers In theme categories,(we have a hallway of paint by number dogs in a straight line)vintage portraiture from the period such as pastels with mid century fashion and hairdos. Chalk ware groupings,like odd fruit in a kitchen, taxidermy( I have a marlin), a collection of odd hubcaps from the period is another look.mirror framed turner prints and blue skinned Asian girl prints are great kitschy looks from the period.In our basement we have a wall of various tin lithographed Chinese checker boards.it can be hard to find exactly what you want for a wall but other things can work in the mean time.currently I am loving collecting armature and carnival quality portraits of ladies, some nudes done in pastels on velvet , some with bee hives , some with loud 60s fashion. It all depends on how kitschy or serious you want to go.Art can be a great way to add some humour to your home. More on reddit.com

Hi everyone! I just got a new house and I have a large wall space to fill. I don’t have a huge budget so even though I would LOVE to get an original piece or pieces I’m not sure if that’s possible. Please give me suggestions on pieces of work you love for MCM homes, places to shop for artwork, or artists to look into. Of course I have also been scouring thrift stores, antique shops, and fb marketplace. Thank youuu!!!!!
