This gives your room a sense of boredom, and it’ll only be a matter of time before you try different décor ideas. A few additions such as flowers, art, new paintings, and mirrors can turn a house into a home.

People have different styles and use different wall decors to spruce up their spaces. But this doesn’t mean that you only go with one style. Sometimes, mixing things up, like combining colors and wall arts, can give your room the look you desire. The good side is that wall décor collections are conveniently available in sites like Fine Art America and many others. The key is to personalize your space as much as possible.

This article looks at some of the wall décor ideas you can try out:

  1. Mirrors 

Mirrors aren’t only functional in your space, but they’re also decorative pieces. To brighten up your space, a decorative mirror can be added to a blank space with decorative borders. You can either settle for one large mirror or use smaller mirrors to form a gallery wall. These small mirrors can have unique decorative borders to give your wall a beautiful splash.

  1. Tapestries 

Hanging a tapestry on your wall is one of the best ways to spruce up your space. First, tapestries are harder to come by than the other wall art collections, making them very valuable. Secondly, tapestries can be printed or painted, giving you an option to choose from or you can get a piece of both. This kind of décor will add warmth to your space while also blending in with your furniture and other décor in your room.
