Hang Plates as Decor in the Living Room

Hanging decorative plates on the walls in your living room can add nostalgia if you use heirloom plates, or simply add to the decor like art work. Choose the plates, arrangement and method of display to complement your current decor or redecorate the room around the plates. Plates result in a three dimensional display that you won't get from pictures or most artwork, as well as providing a conversation piece. Does this Spark an idea?

Design a Living Room With a Neutral Wall Color and Dark Accessories
If you’re a fan of dark colors but don’t want your living room to seem small or depressing, using a neutral wall color can help solve the problem. The neutral color, particularly in a lighter shade, allows light to reflect, making the room seem more open and cheerful. As you add dark accessories, you highlight other colors without overpowering the room. Dark colors can include deep purples, blues and greens. A benefit of designing your living room is that you can experiment with different color combinations before actually painting the room. Does this Spark an idea?

Decorate With a Quilt on the Wall
Wall decor for large walls comes in many forms. Although the most obvious choice might be a large piece of artwork or photograph, other options exist that might be better suited for some of the more casual decorating styles like Americana or French country. In these cases, a beautifully made quilt fits the scheme nicely. Decorating with a quilt allows you to adorn the wall with the same amount of color as some pieces of artwork. The wall can become the right place to display that handmade heirloom from grandma's attic out in a place of honor in your home. Does this Spark an idea?

Make an Argyle Wall
Few patterns say "classic prep" like a simple geometric argyle design. This simple pattern, reminiscent of plaid, has been decorating sweaters and socks for decades. Give your bedroom, bath or rec room some prepster panache by painting an argyle wall. Choose three complementary colors to match your room decor. The diamond shapes and stripes of the argyle will set off any classic or casual furniture style. Does this Spark an idea?
