DECORATING WALLS

When you have a big, blank wall to fill, your first thought may be a gallery wall.

Enter baskets, brackets, paint-dipped objects, wall sculptures, special paint effects and more. It adds an overall statement to the overall design of the home. But the problem lies in the fact that there are so many walls, so much space to decorate, it gets messy and confusing. Which wall to decorate, where to place the products, what will enhance the look? So many questions and so many dilemmas. Here’s a tiny checklist that you can read to get rid of all the confusion :

When hanging a decor in your living room, the item should be placed horizontally as it gives volume. Basically, the hangings, decor items etc should be placed the minimum of handspan from corners. Consider symmetrical placements as that creates visual balance and looks perfect over large furniture and fireplace mantles.

 

2- How much number required

A healthy mix of shapes and sizes does this style proper justice, so don’t shy away from blending horizontals, squares, and verticals of varying scales. For a crisp look that leans modern, only use sleek black frames. To achieve a lighter, clean light touch, default to all white instead. And for a finish that’s refreshing and uber-personal, throw all limits out and let your imagination run wild with frames..
