The Confetti Hearts Wall
Do you even live here if you haven’t seen the confetti hearts wall by Jeni’s South End, created by local artist entrepreneur Evelyn Henson? Some people just have a genius about what sells, and right now that people is Evelyn Henson. She recently partnered with Jeni’s again for their new location in NoDa with the stripes that are taking over the QC IG.
The Confetti Stripes Wall at the NoDa Jeni’s Ice Creams at 424 E 36th St.
Magic Carpet Mural on the Charlotte Rail Trail
The History of Noda Mosaic by Ruth Ava Lyons at Novel NoDa
This artist does some amazing mosaic creations along with her beautiful art, and her installations beautify several local spots, including some you’ll find at your feet.
The Mother of Invention Mural at Discovery Place Science
Another AH-MAZing female artist brightening up so many corners of the QC. This newest one at Discovery Place.
SC Sunflower Field at Draper Wildlife Management Area
We were introduced to the SC Sunflower fields by one of our contributors, @southerndeparture, in her article here on scoop. A pilgrimage down is a must this summer.
Camp North End
Everything at Camp North End is insta-worthy, and they just keep adding to it.
The Space Murals at Metropolitan
The CoWork by Camden Skyline Art Wall
Sometimes you find the fun stuff in the most unexpected places….but businesses are savvy and know that creating instagrammable walls and spaces provides great buzz and lots of free marketing.
Under The Crown at Queen Park Social
La Belle Helene & their Insta Bathroom Backdrop
La Belle Helene, arguably the cities most beautiful restaurant space, is a photo dream. There is even an instagram mirror wall in the bathroom space so that you can selfie in the mirror and the restaurant name, written backwards, shows up perfectly.
The Wings at Max & Local Bodega at 1501 Mint St.
So many murals to choose from these days, but we love this one for the pets and babies most of all.
Bechtler Firebird
An oldie but goodie. Try some closer up shots to get your broken reflection in the mirror tiles.
The Skyline Shots
Many many options and many involve a cocktail as an added bonus 🙂

We’ve barely skimmed the surface on great shots for your instagram this summer, and didn’t even have time or space for all the parks & greenspace. I guess there’s another article in our future. Meanwhile, don’t forget to share your shots with @scoopcharlotte!
