Selecting Wall Art

Even if you are unable to distinguish between a Pissarro and a Picasso, you are still capable of choosing lovely wall art. There's no need to base your selections on artists or fads. Depending on the size, style, or color, choose what works.

By Dimension

It might be simpler to start with bigger pieces, covering big voids in the wall, and then move on to the small hung trinkets. A general guideline is to keep photographs at approximately two thirds of your sofa's length. But in general, follow the laws of common sense. Small works of art are necessary for small bathrooms. big artworks could also be displayed in very big living spaces. Even smaller (similar) pieces could be grouped together to take up more room.

By Style

This isn't art school, so don't worry. In this context, style is defined as coordinating wall art and photographs with the furnishings in the space. Images of tundra landscapes or fjords might be part of a Scandinavian home design concept. There might be more nautical imagery in a coastal design. Moreover, industrial aesthetics could simply be industry scenes. Basically, pick wall art that contributes to the current style's sales. Try utilizing picture frames that complement the room's current furniture if your favorite artwork doesn't seem to go with it. Smooth metallic frames will enhance the visual appeal of any wall art if the coffee desk and bookshelves, for instance, have sleek metal legs.

By Coloring

Select wall art based on color to make things straightforward. To make objects blend in, you can use hues that are existing in the space. Alternately, you may pick strikingly different hues to draw attention to the paintings itself and provide captivating focal points. For example, neon wall art may suddenly elevate a subdued color scheme.

Ideas for Wall Decor Without Art

There's more to wall decor than merely framed artwork. Furthermore, creating a unified look in a room shouldn't break the bank. Take a peek at the way Escape to the Chateau's 19th-century French chateau is furnished by designer Angel Strawbridge. She has shown us that almost anything may be utilized as wall décor, including vintage record disks and dried flowers.

Repurpose objects to create unique and eccentric decorative elements for your home. A fast Google search will yield countless options for wall décor. Here are a few of my top suggestions:

• Putting a mirror up against the wall to give the impression that there is more room and light—or using a collection of small, handheld mirrors—

• Shelves that float for more storage

• Hanging a tapestry or rug

• Tiny frame photo collage

• Anything you did not understand where should go on a gallery wall

• Displaying vibrant dishes that you never use

• Creating Handmade rustic wall planters



But paint has to be the easiest way to decorate a wall. Here in Prince Edward Island, we don't often paint statement walls for house stagings, but it's a simple approach to transform an empty wall into a striking feature. For inspiration, peruse this collection of accent wall ideas, or feel free to express your own thoughts.

Angel's wallpaper collage demonstrates that one may find inspiration for wall décor anywhere. Ultimately, just like any other creative project, wall art and décor are designed to reflect your personal style and preferences. An artistically challenged person does not exist.
