Making your own wall decorations is an excellent way to personalize the craft to the decor in your home. Doing the craft project yourself enables you to select the colors, textures and design of the materials and, depending on your project and supplies, making your own wall decorations may require little artistic skill. Homemade wall decor is much less expensive than that you buy at craft fairs or department stores and, because it is personalized, it contains the perfect materials and colors to enhance your home.

Hide the Walls at a Wedding With White Fabric
It is quite common to find a beautiful venue for your wedding only to realize that there are certain finishes or coverings on the walls that are not your style or are completely outdated. An old church may have wood paneling on the walls or a community group may have covered the walls in plaques and memorabilia. Overall, the venue is lovely, but the walls clash with your wedding ambiance. Covering the walls in tulle drapery is a cost effective and simple way to provide an elegant look.
