Five Quick Fixes for a Blah Wall

You’ve got a big blank wall? Really? I would love to have just one. I was looking for space to do modified push ups the other day and…But I digress. If you have a big boring wall and you don’t have several thousand dollars to drop on a big, big piece of art, try one of these quick fixes:

  • Put a grouping of smaller objects on the wall. A few mirrors, a set of matted photos with matching frames or a group of interesting vintage plates can have the same impact as a large piece of art.
  • Make your own oversize art. A piece of foam board, hot glue, picture hanging hardware with sticky backing and a big piece of fabric can combine to make a gorgeous piece. Simply stretch the fabric over the board and hot glue the fabric edges to the back of the board. Add the hardware and you’re done.
  • Use wall decals to make a focal point. A favorite saying or some bright geometric shapes can liven up the space.
  • Hang curtains on a rod to make a faux window.
  • Paint or stencil a design on the wall to make it an accent wall.
