I have always love art and used it to decorate my personal living spaces. If you love art and want to decorate your bedroom, living room , hallway, kitchen or any other space in your home, you are in the right place. Let’s look at 10 ways how to decorate a room with wall art.
1. Choose Artwork that you Love.
My first and most important tip is to choose artwork for your wall that you will enjoy looking at. The majority of the art pieces that I have on my walls, are the ones that I genuinely love to look at.
The wall art in my room infuses my space with warmth and personality. It is pretty easy to know my favourite things when you look at my wall art.
2. Frames
Picking the right frames is important to your overall aesthetic, when decorating your creative wall art. My favourite frames are usually vintage and wooden. Make sure to browse for inexpensive frames that you can either find online or thrifting.
3. Thrift for your Wall Art
If you are looking for a vintage-style wall, make sure to go thrifting for your wall art. As I mentioned before, thrifting is the best if you want inexpensive quaint frames. But, not only that, but you can also get unique artwork and decorative pieces that you wouldn’t get anywhere else.
4. Themed Art Work
One way that I style my wall with art is by following a specific theme. Part of the wall above my bookshelf follows a rustic boat artwork theme and I absolutely love it. I intend to grow my collection of different boat artwork on that wall.
5. Big Statement Pieces
A single piece of artwork can be the perfect wall to decorate that empty white wall in your house. This especially works if the artwork is dramatic and weirdly sized. To make your artwork big, stretch printed fabric around a canvas frame, which you can find at crafts stores.
Alternatively, you can buy large artwork from stores like the Range UK.
6. Artwork Headboard
If you want to decorate the wall above your headboard you can do so by using framed prints. The wall space above my bed is decorated with black and white frames with artwork that resonates closely with me. Since my room is my private and favourite space. I made sure that choosing artwork meant something to me was a priority when decorating that wall.
7. Reflective Art Work
If you are looking for an easy and quick way to decorate the room with wall art. You can do this by adding an oversized mirror. A mirror is the perfect decorative addition as it reflects lights around the room and makes the space feel larger.
8. Mirror Wall
Another excellent way to use reflective artwork is by grouping mini mirrors and putting them in vintage frames. If one large artwork does not appeal to you, this could be your alternative. You also add this artwork alongside your other wall art, which will tie the whole thing together giving it a vintage rustic feel. My top tip is to make sure you choose mirrors of different sizes for an eclectic look.
9. Book Art
I’m an avid book lover, reader, and collector. So if you are anything like me and want your space to represent your interests. You can do this by decorating your walls with book art.
To do this, you can print out your all-time favourite book covers, frame them and decorate them on your wall. Alternatively, you can use your old or unreadable artistic book covers. You can have a literary theme wall to represent all things books that you love.
10. Textural Art
Textural art is a fantastic way to decorate an empty wall with art. Using a mix of textures as wall art will dimension to a room. To do this, you can create DIY art by using woven materials, interesting textiles, and fabric scraps. To add a sentiment to your art wall, you can use fabric that has a meaning like old baby clothes.
