The reception venue you booked fits very well within your budget, is the perfect size to accommodate all your guests and is at the perfect location. But there is a problem. The walls are too ugly for your tastes. Several things can ruin the look of your reception, including old wood paneling, unattractive paint colors or faded wallpaper. Fortunately, there are several things you can do to dress up ugly walls so they become a lovely part of your reception venue.
Getting Uppercase Living Decals to Stick to the Wall
Wall decals are decorative pieces that can be used to embellish almost any clean, flat surface. Because walls are slightly textured, proper application is crucial to ensure that the decal stays stuck to the wall. Besides applying the decal correctly, you will also need to prepare the area on the wall that you wish to decorate. After the decals have been applied to the wall, they cannot be re-stuck if they peel away; getting it right the first time will make all the difference. Does this Spark an idea?

Using fabric as a wall covering is one way to change the look of a room without painting or wall papering. It's a good idea for people who are renting and cannot damage or permanently change the walls. Does this Spark an idea?
Cover Up Ink Pen Marks on a Wall
If you have children, they have probably used your walls as a canvas for their creativity at some point or another. Ink on the wall is not easy to cover up and as tired as you are of looking at the ink on the wall, scrubbing it for hours doesn't work. You could use a poster to cover it or move a dresser in front of it, but you will know the ink is still there and ultimately must be properly dealt with. Even if you can't remove the ink from the wall, you can still cover it with paint. Does this Spark an idea?
Install Mosaic Wall Tile
Mosaic tiles are small, usually 1-inch-square or less, ceramic or marble versions of their larger tile counterparts.

The flexible sheets of tile will quickly cover a wall, providing a durable, easy-to-clean wall surface. Once you learn the proper techniques, you can transform your wall with mosaic tile over a weekend. Does this Spark an idea?
