We have always been dreaming of scribbling the walls - at least , when we were young! From graffiti to wall mural , here are some ideas , in case you would be tempted to start painting your walls (again?)
• Wall mural
Instead of hanging a canvas , why don't you paint directly on the wall. In this particular case , the paint also covers a part of the door , so that the artwork become lively.

• Short-live art
Momoko Suzuki's (erasable) pencil drawings don't look like anything else: her psychedelic style and her curved arabesques , picture a delicate world , full of fantasies.

• An original headboard

Here is the result of an extremely realistic headboard with very little effort! NB: DOn't forget to draw the outline with a pencil before using paint!

We love the fading effect with the rest of the room's décor (curtain , pillows…). The plant seems to root in the curtain and extend to the ceiling: well use of perspective!
• Long live to unrestrained creation
In this hip Lima kafe - Le Emolienteria , Miraflores - walls are ornamented with colorful kitsch fresco. The rest of the decoration perfectly fits in this stylish room.
Note the wrought iron window that turns into a flashy pink table and the old wheelbarrows that change into stools.
• Graffiti
Whether it is a famous or a newbie artist , street art graffiti do well on the walls! Aside from using the walls , M. Cat also make use of the ceiling and the door.M.Cat at Norman's place |
You might also use the stencil/sticker option. However , the effect is less authentic than paint.
