23rd Sep 2022
Empty walls are like blank canvases, carrying infinite possibilities for starting something new. If you’re tired of an empty wall staring blankly at you and want to spin it around, we have just the right wall decor inspo you might need.
We believe that wall décor should be a source of delight, inciting curiosity, joy and cheer in you every time you look at it. If you’re like us and think wallpapers, paneling and tiling are passé, here are some fresh and delightful wall décor ideas instead:
Make a style statement with wall art
When it comes to wall décor, there’s nothing like tasteful, well-curated, high-quality wall art to create a balanced, crisp focal point in the room. It can especially complement a minimalist décor, adding a much-needed grandness and vibrancy to the space.
The right piece of wall art will speak tons about your taste and style, while also simultaneously serving as a conversation starter!
Add a dynamic element with wall plants
Plants make for excellent décor items, not just those typical pots-on-the-floor or pots-on-the-window-sills style, but also those in wall-mounted planters. Apart from the streaks of lively green on the blank wall, they also add a soft touch with a calm and relaxing vibe.
If you think that maintaining live plants is too much work you’re not cut out for, you can opt for high-quality artificial plants instead. Yes, there are ones available now that you just wouldn’t be able to tell apart from the live kind!
Add striking mirrors for a reflective effect
Mirrors are magic – they have a way of brightening up any space and making it look larger by reflecting light. You can use beautiful round mirrors as an attractive focal point on the blank wall, or prop an oversized rectangular one against the wall for some bold flair. For a touch of luxury, consider the arched, conservatory-styled mirror instead.
Bring your wall to life, quite literally, with a vertical wall garden
If you want to try a completely different approach to wall décor, consider shifting your garden from the ground to the wall for a ‘full-bloom’ effect! Your vertical, lush-green garden is bound to leave everyone impressed with a reaction that’ll be nothing short of a ‘wow!’ For a low-maintenance and hassle-free option, go for the artificial plant walls while keeping with that wow-factor.
Add an artistic flair to your wall with canvas art
Nothing compares to an original piece of canvas art to adorn your wall – neither prints, nor reproductions. A piece of art that has been worked on for hours by an artist comes with love, care, creativity and talent. Let your décor reflect these qualities while adding a unique touch that you’ll feel every day when you look at the wall.
Make the wall a contrasting backdrop for a large tree
If you were to look at things from a different perspective, your blank wall could also work as a backdrop to highlight a lovely, large tree. Go for the gorgeous, large-leaved Monstera, or Fiddle Leaf Fig for some boldness. For vibrancy, choose the Ficus or even the long-leaved Snake Plant.
When placed against a nice, contrasting background, you can use a large tree to create a striking piece of wall decor.
Even better - go for the ultra-life-like large artificial plants for the same effect, minus the maintenance headache. Plus, you never have to worry about the changing look of your wall décor piece over time! No drying, no wilting, browning leaves. No bare stems, no dying trees. Keep your decor intact, just the way you like it.
Seize every blank-wall opportunity!
Blank walls present the perfect opportunity to express your style and speak for your personality. Don’t let it pass you by! We’re sure that with these lovely wall decor ideas, you’ll be inspired to change any drab, dull wall into the focal point nobody will want to take their eyes off!
