Wall art is usually a framed picture or photo that has been hung on a nail on the wall. Arranging wall art is a moderately easy process that requires a sense of space and aesthetics. You don't want a cluster of art in one corner of a room while the rest of the walls remain bare. Wall art should be balanced, as a compliment to an already nicely decorated room. You also don't want wall art to be hung crooked. Does this Spark an idea?

It is interesting how you can go into a well decorated home and find a ho-hum kitchen. Sure, the kitchen has nice finishes such as marble countertops and travertine tiles, but the walls are often devoid of decoration. This is probably because kitchens have moisture and oils in the air from cooking that can get into the air and ruin common household decorations. This does not mean however that you cannot decorate your kitchen beautifully. Does this Spark an idea?
Make a Lariat Rope Cross for Wall Decor
A lariat is a rope with a loop on the end that tightens once the loop is placed or thrown over something like a cow, calf or horse. Lariats are a fixture for ranchers and rodeo cowboys and cowgirls. The lariat evokes the open prairie, the cowboy heritage and nature. While the lariat continues to have a utilitarian function, it is also used in creating ornamentation in homes with a Western or natural theme.
Hang a Horse Saddle on a Wall for Decoration
Hanging an authentic horse saddle on your wall can add a realistic element to your western or country-themed room decor. Saddles were intended for function rather than use as a decoration -- and can be challenging to hang from the walls due to their design and weight. Saddles have to be anchored properly to the walls or they can fall and present a serious hazard to anyone in the room at the time. Does this Spark an idea?
