Homemade Wall Decor Ideas

Spice up your walls with custom decor.


Through the creation and placement of homemade wall decor items, you can transform your bland walls into attention-getting works of art. Regardless of how much artistic skill you possess, you can effectively create a wall decor item that will add a touch of style to your space. Before you visit your home decor store to pick up new additions for your walls, put your creativity to the test and craft your own wall-adorning creations. Does this Spark an idea?


Textural Canvas Collections


Add some excitement to your wall space by creating a textural canvas collection. To craft this decor piece, purchase nine square canvases in a size of your choice along with two hues of paint that will pair well with your current decor Using the two paint hues, paint a different textural design on each canvas. For example, you can paint thick vertical stripes on one canvas and horizontal zigzags on another.


Once your textured creations have had time to dry, lay them out on the floor in a 3x3 square. Move your canvases around, swapping them out until you have arranged them in a fashion that appeals to you. With a tape measure and level, carefully place nails on your wall, and transfer your creation to your wall surface.


Wooden Geometric Installation


Craft a piece of installation art for your space using geometric wood shapes. To create this wall art piece, select a shape to feature. Purchase or cut wood into the selected shape, recreating the shape in various sizes. Select a color that will contrast well with your current wall hue, and paint your shapes. Using small finish nails, attach your shapes to your wall, arranging them in a seemingly random fashion to finish your attention-getting piece of installation art.


Floral Basket Collection


Add a feminine touch to your walls by creating a floral basket collection piece. To produce this piece, gather an assortment of petite baskets. Paint the baskets so they are all the same color, or create an eclectic display with an assortment of natural basket hues. Attach each basket to your wall using screws to secure them in place. Place a piece of floral foam in the bottom of each basket, attaching it with hot glue. Select silk flowers that pair well with your current decor, and use these blooms to create an arrangement in each hung basket, sticking the flowers into the foam to secure them in place.
