Make Fingerprint Wall Art
Each person's fingerprints are different. Fingerprints are often used as identification and as a way to solve crimes. Put your fingerprints to more creative use than matching criminals with crimes -- transform them into works of art to hang on your wall. Frame your child's fingerprints in his room, or create an entry hall art piece to spark conversation.

Decorate Walls With Drapes
Decorating your walls with drapes not only brings color and texture to them, but it also helps hide flaws or cover walls when you're not allowed to paint them. There are many ways you can use curtains to decorate. The method you choose will depend on what visual motif and materials you use. It can also be influenced by the decorating constraints placed on your living situation, as in the case of a rented apartment. Limit your efforts to just the walls or extend the idea so it includes all the wall structures in your space, including false ones. Does this Spark an idea?

Decorate a Wall With a Large Screen TV
Large-screen TVs pose an especially difficult design challenge, simply because of their large size. When placing a large-screen TV into a room, it immediately becomes the focal point. However, a wall-mounted TV can look out of place if it is not balanced with placement of the remaining furniture. It is important to use specific pieces around the TV in order to balance out this large size. By using one large piece and a variety of smaller pieces to decorate the wall with the large-screen TV, you can provide balance, without distracting from the TV. Does this Spark an idea?
