Sometimes, standard paint and wallpaper aren't enough to create the look you want with your wall decorating. Re-stickable fabric decals create an effect similar to both a tapestry and a mural, but in a form that's movable and as temporary or permanent as you'd like it to be. Create simply, chunky decals for a child's room or nursery, or make more complex, painted decals for other areas of your home. Does this Spark an idea?
Make Medieval Wall Decorations
A medieval shield is a wall decoration that can be made in three traditional shapes. These shapes include round, oval, and a long triangle. The round and oval medieval shield are normally flat. The long triangle medieval shield can either be flat or slightly curved. A crest or other decoration can be placed on the front. A handle of leather or wood was normally used on the back. The different shape of the shield signified whether it was for jousting, close up battle, or used against spear attacks.
Decorate a Room With Lavender Walls
Lavender can mimic the warm glow of an evening sky or offer the coolness of a blueberry iced tea, so before you begin decorating, decipher your lavender tone then look to the color wheel for ideas. To decipher if your lavender walls fall into the cool-blue or warm-pink shade range, hold a paint color swatch of each tone -- in the same color “weight” or saturation as the lavender -- against the purplish tone and let your keen eye decide.
