Make a wall waterfall for your home with acrylic sheeting and decorative copper gutters. The gutters are U-shaped and will hide the plastic tubing from the waterfall pump as it runs to the top of your waterfall. Another gutter placed across the top of your water wall will work to distribute the water like raindrops over the acrylic wall. Select a decorative copper planter as the reservoir for your waterfall to complete the copper motif. You could also paint a tree or some other decorative scenery on the wall before you attach the clear acrylic sheeting. Does this Spark an idea?

Hang Wallpaper Borders in the Middle of a Painted Wall
A border can break up the expanse of a solid color wall by adding a splash of color and a bit of interest. Painting borders can be time consuming and difficult, and if your artistic skills are not up to par you might have to live with an imperfect result. Happily, there is a much more professional alternative that can be put on your painted wall: a wallpaper border. You don't have to have the entire wall papered to use one. They can be pasted right over paint to add instant appeal to your room. Does this Spark an idea?
