I’ve been watching home shows today and saw the same thing over and over. A realtor would come in and be horrified by all the individuality showing through and they’d make the house nice and plain. Then, in the next show, decorators would come in and say the house was bland and not individual enough. They’d add tons of color and pattern. So, what do you do if you don’t plan to stay in a home long term?
- Paint a big canvas with bold colors and hang it on a wall.
- Screw a piece of drywall onto a 2×4 frame that you attached to a wall with a few screws to keep it secure. Paint your fake wall as vibrantly as you want. When you move, it is just a matter of unscrewing the false wall and the frame and patching and touching up the screw holes.
- Hang fabric. There are some beautiful textiles in the home decor section. You can tack fabric across an entire wall to really add a ton of texture and color. Just be sure you take it down a few times a year to clean it or you will get insane allergies!
How have you added color to your walls without painting the whole room?
