It’s been years, but still we don't know, “Do walls really have ears?”
But being in the same home, watching the walls getting old, we have realized, “Walls surely have souls.” Period.
Home, office, and cafes…
No matter where you are, the ambiance, the home decor, and the furniture might be different, but the only thing you will find common is how the walls narrate the backstories. Walls never shy away from reflecting their urge to explain about the place, be it wall decor of an urban cafe that would talk to you with floral and a little bit of messiness, or the wall of the library drools over the fiction. In the same way, office walls explore the best versions of decency and discipline (kudos to those motivating frames that keep us going), whereas homes seek a variety of characters. The guest room’s shelves filled with statues and figurines and the kid’s room being divided into pink and blue fights, walls are truly the soul of every room and nothing was kept hidden. Revealing the theme, enchanting the home.
But what if all these sound like fiction to you? Aren't your walls reflecting your intentions and stories? Well, no need to feel the FOMO anymore. Read the blog and explore the world where walls would reveal how they want to look.
So ready for the tycoon of wall decor ideas that would surely end the cold war between you and your wall.
Top 5 Wall Decor Ideas, Your Walls Could Not Resist Loving
1. Mirror, Mirror On The Wall
How can someone resist it?
Mirrors have always been a reflection of beauty and honesty. Honestly, mirrors bring space, light, and emotion to the space. You can choose statement mirrors like crochet borders or the vintage mirror with a green Meenakari touch, either way mirrors are the fastest and classiest way to deck up your wall without even overdoing it.
Even if we see it from Vastu’s perspective, keeping a mirror on the northern or eastern walls can reflect positive energy and brightness to the room. Yes, but avoid placing mirrors directly opposite doors or windows to prevent energy from escaping the room. After all, good things need to be preserved.
Designer Tip:
“Mirrors are the jewellery of the room,” says Kelly Wearstler.
Wisely picked and rightly chosen mirrors often add sparkle, depth and glamour to your space.
So, what is the wait for?
Let your walls flaunt a little.
2. Hot Hangings Hangover
If you love textures, patterns, metallic art, and even taller wall statements, this is your sign to invest in those blank walls for these hangover-worthy wall decor accents. Often living rooms with minimal furniture lose the designation of ‘perfect’ due to those empty walls. Even after so many efforts in hunting the best decor accent, it becomes a little tough to balance the style and space both.
Simply, everything seems just right with these wall hangings. The beauty of unique patterns blended with the toughness of metal just makes it perfect for the master wall of the home. It is no less than a handcrafted charm curated by Mother, does not scream but grabs attention quickly. Hence, it is one of the most creative wall decor ideas.
And the plus point?
Approved on the grounds of psychology, it is said putting patterns in the home can evoke the feeling of comfort and warmth.
Designer Tip:
“Texture and patterns are the secret ingredient to a well-designed room,” says designer Nate Berkus.
Want to remove the boredom from the room? Add patterns!
3. Plates That Serve (Looks)
No, we are not talking about your dinner table. They just got a competition. There are plates that are too pretty to be salted and showcased in culinary stations. Using decorative wall plates as home accents is an age-old tradition, not just a trend to pass by.
Using printed ceramic plates with unique patterns to cover the loneliness of walls is one of the most beautiful ways to end the FOMO of those corners. Look around, you will get so many unique prints like Moroccan and floral designs, that too with irresistible glaze. They are just another way of telling tales of cultures, generations, and places we often preserve memories of.
Create a plate wall that splashes with color or narrates a muted, monochromatic story. Don’t forget to add them asymmetrically for a bold twist.
Designer Tip:
“The best rooms have something to say about the people who live in them."
– David Hicks
You love odd numbers; add plates in the similar order or vice versa. Whether you love paintings of figures or abstract art, choose what you like, not what fits right! Trust the process; the outcome will always surprise you.
4. Let The Rugs Slay
Rugs on the floor? Great!
On the walls? Masterstroke!
This underrated decor choice adds softness, textures, and warmth to your space. Honestly, if your wall has light colors and length, and there is a decent gap between the furniture and the wall, rugs are perfect for your walls. There are so many options available, you can use traditional Persian rugs, a tribal Kilim, or a modern boho macrame piece. If used wisely, it can become an experience in itself.
This wall decor idea is great for large blank walls that need something bold and can add layers but are not desperate for attention. Also, these rugs make the space look cozier and more rooted in simplicity.
Designer Tip:
“Everything is designed. Few things are designed well.” told Brian Reed
Pair jute wall rugs with plants, vases, and low lighting to create a corner that reflects this difference.
5. Memories Shine Bright
Obviously, every wall’s favorite!
Frames and collage.
Memories are rare, yet they never stop happening to our lives. It is obviously not possible to store them all, but the ones that are captured need to be honored with the wall of memories. Seriously, do not procrastinate and convert your walls into storybooks.
Mix photo frames with fairy lights, clipboards, and even handwritten notes. You can also make it customized by adding themes to it, like travel, family, or milestones, or go freestyle and let the stories take the charge. Also, the magic lies in arrangement. Try adding frames in black and white with colored walls, while letting vibrant photos stick to neutral backdrops.
Designer Tip:
"If you love something, it will work. That's the only real rule."
– Bunny Williams
Stick to consistent frame colors to avoid randomness. This will also help you to create a cohesive look, even if the content inside it varies.
