We all want our houses to have a general look and feel, but sometimes that can lead to a house that looks boring. And most people don’t want their houses to look boring. But they also prefer an understated look and don’t want to go over the top. Balancing these two aspects can be challenging, but that’s what this post is for. We’ll be talking about four ways to spice up a blank wall in your house. By changing up just one wall, you’ll get to keep the overall look of the house but still have a unique element that brightens things up.
Graffiti
If you want to make a wall stand out, graffiti it. This may seem like an odd suggestion, but there are various styles of graffiti that are softer and less bold than the ones you may be used to. While we wouldn’t recommend this for a bedroom or living room (although it’s ultimately up to you), it’s a great idea for an entertainment area or a games room. Get some graffiti supplies, start planning, and then get started on creating a wall that is sure to make a statement. And if you don’t like the results, you can always just paint over it!
Make a memory wall
If you’re a sentimental person, you probably have boxes of memories stored away somewhere. Photos, wedding invitations, movie stubs . . . anything that brings back happy memories. But if you have a blank wall at your disposal, why not utilize it as a way of showcasing these memories – putting them on the display instead of keeping them hidden? Every time you look at this wall, you’re sure to get a burst of joy inside you. You can also invest in an instant camera so that you can constantly keep growing this wall.
Wallpaper
Many people think of wallpaper as somewhat old-fashioned, but the truth is that there are loads of gorgeous, modern wallpapers that can be used to enhance your home. However, we do understand that having all of the walls in your house covered in wallpaper can be a bit much, especially for those who prefer a minimalistic look. That’s why covering one wall with wallpaper is ideal – you still get to spice things up, but it’s not going to feel like too much. Click here for the top wallpaper designs of 2021.
Mirrors
Mirrors are a great addition to any room. You can quickly check whether you look okay, so they’re practical. They also make a room look bigger, so in terms of space, it’s a great investment. And, of course, they can be used as decoration. The great thing about mirrors is that there are so many styles, so you’ll be able to find one for every style – vintage, modern, geometric, or whatever else you can think of. This also allows you control over how much of the wall you leave blank. You can cover the entire wall with mirrors, or just place one statement mirror in the middle. If you need some help, you can look at professional tips for decorating walls with mirrors.
