When designing your space, consider your room an empty box. You have a top, a bottom, and four surrounding walls. You can change the “bottom” of your space by investing in different flooring options, and you can also invest in the “top” of your space painting it or adding different light fixtures. But this still leaves you with four more walls to add your personal touch. Adding paint is a quick way to transform a room’s entire feel an ambiance; however, wall décor is your opportunity to enhance your space and improve the room’s overall aesthetics. We put together three budget-friendly wall décor investments that can help transform your space into a tastefully designed masterpiece.

Adding pictures or wall art is a phenomenal opportunity to incorporate your style of design and taste. If your room has a theme or style, let your picture become a focal point to help enhance the room’s overall aesthetics. Decide the type of art you are looking to use in your space. You may want to invest in some pictures first to use as your guideline when creating a theme or you can search for wall art that compliments your already existing design. Photos can take a blank canvas wall and turn it into an intriguing spectacle in your room.

One of the most underutilized tools in design are mirrors. Mirrors help a room feel larger by creating the illusion of eliminating a wall. They also help light travel through a room by reflecting it and make a room brighter and full of energy. Mirrors come in all shapes and sizes, so finding the perfect one for your home should be easy. Investing in a mirror is a great way to amp up your walls and help a room’s overall appeal.

Do not limit lighting to just your ceiling or lamps. Wall lighting options are great to help create ambiance throughout the room. Using wall sconces or rail lighting is one way of adding more lighting to your room. If you have pictures, you can showcase them by hanging spotlights above or below them. Lights are great ways to showcase or help provide extra illumination for tasks.

Sprucing up your walls in your home is important to keep a room feeling lively and not so bland. Just like décor, your walls give you an opportunity to express yourself and amplify your space’s design. Facilitating your walls with lighting, mirrors, and pictures will help make your home feel more aesthetic and fresher.
