Simple Tips For Wall Decorating Room By Room
Did you move recently
and have a plethora of blank walls you’re looking to fill? Or maybe you’re just
sick of your current art decorations and are looking to start over. We get it!
Decorating can fill a little overwhelming sometimes, especially if you don’t
know where to start. Here we’ve broken it down into rooms so that you can start
slowly and begin wherever you want. Read on as we discuss some simple but
effective tips for decorating room by room in your home.

Wall Decorating Room By Room - Your
Simple Guide
Art and photography can
be a great way to add colour and personality to your room and the best part is
that it doesn’t need to be expensive to look amazing. It can be personal,
unique, or classic. No matter your style, the artwork or canvas prints
on your walls is how you can brighten up any space. The right
artwork can also be the thing that ties all of your furniture and walls
together for a cohesive look that seems both intentional and effortless.
Let’s start with the
living room and then we’ll continue our guide for wall decorating room by room.
Living Room
The living room is
often the focal point of any home. It’s right in the name - this is the place
we do most of our living. That’s why it is really important to make sure that
you style it in a way that fits you and your whole family. You probably want
your living room to feel comfortable and inviting. Depending on your style,
this could mean muted and subtle artwork, or it could mean bright, loud, and
eclectic pieces.
Whatever you’re drawn
to, our tip for living room wall decorating is always a gallery wall. Gallery
walls are our favorite because they can be customized to every individual. It
can be a wall of photos that you love, it can be made up of silly or
inspirational quotes, it can be a collection of abstract art.
Start by making sure
you have adequate space, maybe surrounding your tv or above your couch,
depending on your home layout. Then choose your favorite gallery style. Maybe
you are drawn to clean lines and matching frames. We love it. Perhaps you’re a
little looser and love the mix and match style, where none of the sizes,
medium, and artwork itself match. This is a great option for people who love to
switch art in and out. The possibilities are endless when you decide to utilize
a gallery wall in your living room.
Dining Room
The next stop in our
wall decorating room by room guide is the dining room. Do you have a nice blank
wall that feels too empty? Maybe your table is centered by the window and you
have a little space on either side. When it comes to decorating this space, we
think you should keep it simple. Let the dining room stay fairly neutral. One
idea is to use one large canvas print of a watercolor scene to compliment your table
runner. Another idea is to get a set of three split panel canvas to break up
one large photo or painting.
If you do just have
thinner panels to work with, why not play up the kitchen theme and choose some
dining inspired quotes? We’ve also seen family mantras and general well-wishes
printed simply using black and white with bold frames - a style that works with
nearly any other decorations in your home.
Master
Bedroom
If you’re like most
people, you’ve probably let the master bedroom be bare for a while. We get it!
In our busy lives, it’s often that we aren’t spending much time in this room
except when we’re sleeping. But the right artwork in the master bedroom can
promote calm and peace and even more restful sleep.
A smaller and more
uniform grid-style gallery wall is a great way to add some interest above the
headboard. The bedroom offers a place to get a little more personal. Consider
using wedding photos or family vacation prints mingled with quotes and art
about love and family. Because you are most likely using this room to sleep
more often than not, we suggest using neutral artwork in here with soothing
colors.
Kid’s
Bedroom
Your kid’s bedroom can
be a fun and magical place. We suggest that you get them involved before you
get too excited about redecorating their space. Especially if you’re children
share a room or are a little older, they might have their own ideas about what
they want their room to be.
With kid’s rooms, our
tip is always to try to stick to a theme. Whether that’s a color, a sport,
their favorite character, and more, it’s easier to fill the wall space when you
have a theme to rely on. Plus, maybe their walls aren’t the focal point. If
they have an amazing bedspread, choose soothing and light artwork that
compliments their bed.
Just like with the
master bedroom, you want this room to be restful too, not just a place for play
and creativity. Find a balance between fun and bright and calm and relaxing.
They might even have fun decorating their own canvas to hang up!
Bathroom
Don’t forget about the
bathroom! A little artwork or tasteful photography can spruce up your space.
You don’t have to go all out, as most of our bathrooms are small and usually
shared space.
We love the trend of
adding nature prints to the restroom and then tying that in with live plants on
pretty shelves. Maybe you play up the theme and add fun quotes about getting
clean and washing your hands, a gentle but cute reminder to little ones using
this room. When it comes to decorating this room, simple is best. Tie everything
together with matching frames or colors and you’ll be good to go.
Bottom Line
- Canvas Is Your Best Friend
Now that you’ve read
all of our tips for wall decorating room by room, we’ll leave you with this
last tip - use canvas! Canvas artwork is an affordable way to create a cohesive
look around your home. It’s lightweight, so you don’t need a million holes
nailed into your wall to keep it hanging. They are durable and easy to
transport, so you can utilize canvas prints for years to come. Plus, with the
internet at our disposal, you can create your own unique artwork that is
beautiful and affordable with just a few easy clicks.
